Forecast Model of Water Quantity Based on Back Propagation Artificial Neural Network

Abstract

Back Propagation (BP) neural network, Widely adopted and utilized in automatic control, image recognition, hydrological forecasting and water quality evaluation, etc., as one of the Artificial Neural Networks, has stronger function and property of mapping, classification, functional fitting. This article takes the water flow of Lanzhou section of Yellow river in China as an example by the way of BP model to predict the water quantity. It is well proved that BP network model can reach the purposes of early warning and forecasting. DOI : http://dx.doi.org/10.11591/telkomnika.v12i6.5444
