| Abstract | Comparison and utilization of the common neural network with back propagation
algorithm (BP) and Group Method of Data Handling (GMDH) in the forecasting of some water
resources time series are attempted in the present study. For this purpose, a fully user friendly
software package of GMDH was developed to facilitate the application, some modifications of
BP are made to simplify its use in practical situations, and all the steps involved in both
algorithms are described carefully as well. Three applications are then given for this careful
comparative study and it was found that neural networks can result in better forecasting accuracy
as compared to GMDH. |
