Abstract
- For effective water resource management, water budgeting, and optimal release discharge from a reservoir, the accurate prediction of daily inflow is critical. An attempt has been made using artificial intelligence (AI) techniques to enhance water management efficiency in the Haditha-dam reservoir. This case study occasionally suffers from severe drought events and thus causes significant water shortages as well as stopping hydroelectric power stations for several months. Four different approaches were employed for inflow forecasting, namely multiple linear regression (MLR), random forest (RF), extreme learning machine (ELM), and regularized extreme learning machine (RELM). Autocorrelation function (ACF) and partial autocorrelation function (PACF) were used to select the best-lagged variables. The obtained results revealed the superiority of the RELM model compared to other forecast models. The proposed model (RELM) yielded higher prediction accuracy, and its prediction records were similar to the actual values. Moreover, the adopted model achieved a higher correlation of coefficient value (R = 0.955). The regularization approach effectively enhanced the prediction capacity and the generalization ability of the proposed model. On the other hand, the RF model's performance capacity was poor compared to other comparable models due to the overfitting issue. Moreover, the results showed that the PACF (partial autocorrelation function) gave more accurate and realistic predictors than ACF (autocorrelation function) because of its ability to cope with a sudden temporal variation of inflow time series. Overall, the RELM approach provided higher adequacy and tighter confidence in forecasting daily inflow even in noisy data and severe climatic conditions. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
