Abstract
As an important hydrological parameter, dissolved oxygen (DO) concentration is a well-accepted indicator of water quality. This study deals with introducing and evaluating four novel integrative methods for the prediction of DO. To this end, teaching-learning-based optimization (TLBO), sine cosine algorithm, water cycle algorithm (WCA), and electromagnetic field optimization (EFO) are appointed to train a commonly-used predictive system, namely multi-layer perceptron neural network (MLPNN). The records of a USGS station called Klamath River (Klamath County, Oregon) are used. First, the networks are fed by the data between October 01, 2014, and September 30, 2018. Later, their competency is assessed using the data belonging to the subsequent year (i.e., from October 01, 2018 to September 30, 2019). The reliability of all four models, as well as the superiority of the WCA-MLPNN, was revealed by mean absolute errors (MAEs of 0.9800, 1.1113, 0.9624, and 0.9783) in the training phase. The calculated Pearson correlation coefficients (RPs of 0.8785, 0.8587, 0.8762, and 0.8815) plus root mean square errors (RMSEs of 1.2980, 1.4493, 1.3096, and 1.2903) showed that the EFO-MLPNN and TLBO-MLPNN perform slightly better than WCA-MLPNN in the testing phase. Besides, analyzing the complexity and the optimization time pointed out the EFO-MLPNN as the most efficient tool for predicting the DO. In the end, a comparison with relevant previous literature indicated that the suggested models of this study provide accuracy improvement in machine learning-based DO modeling.

Abstract
Time series prediction of river water quality is an important method to grasp the changes of river water quality and protect the river water environment. However, due to the time series data of river water quality have strong periodicity, seasonality and nonlinearity, which seriously affects the accuracy of river water quality prediction. In this paper, a new hybrid deep neural network model is proposed for river water quality prediction, which is integrated with Savitaky-Golay (SG) filter, STL time series decomposition method, Self-attention mechanism, and Temporal Convolutional Network (TCN). The SG filter can effectively remove the noise in the time series data of river water quality, and the STL technology can decompose the time series data into trend, seasonal and residual series. The decomposed trend series and residual series are input into the model combining the Self-attention mechanism and TCN respectively for training and prediction. In order to verify the proposed model, this study uses opensource water quality data and private water quality data to conduct experiments, and compares with other water quality prediction models. The experimental results show that our method achieves the best prediction results in the water quality data of two different rivers.

Research on the Multimodal Digital Teaching Quality Data Evaluation Model Based on Fuzzy BP Neural Network. COMPUTATIONAL INTELLIGENCE AND NEUROSCIENCE 2022; 2022:7893792. [PMID: 35726293 PMCID: PMC9206581 DOI: 10.1155/2022/7893792] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/16/2022] [Revised: 05/15/2022] [Accepted: 05/25/2022] [Indexed: 12/01/2022]
Abstract
We propose in this paper a fuzzy BP neural network model and DDAE-SVR deep neural network model to analyze multimodal digital teaching, establish a multimodal digital teaching quality data evaluation model based on a fuzzy BP neural network, and optimize the initial weights and thresholds of BP neural network by using adaptive variation genetic algorithm. Since the BP neural network is highly dependent on the initial weights and points, the improved genetic algorithm is used to optimize the initial weights and thresholds of the BP neural network, reduce the time for the BP neural network to find the importance and points that satisfy the training termination conditions, and improve the prediction accuracy and convergence speed of the neural network on the teaching quality evaluation results. The entropy value method, a data-based objectivity evaluation method, is introduced as the guidance mechanism of the BP neural network. The a priori guidance sample is obtained by the entropy method. Then, the adaptive variational genetic algorithm is used to optimize the BP neural network model to learn the a priori sample knowledge and establish the evaluation model, which reduces the subjectivity of the BP neural network learning sample. To better reflect and compare the effects of the two neural network evaluation models, BP and GA-BP, the sample data were continued to be input into the original GA and BSA to obtain the evaluation results and errors; then, the evaluation results of the two evaluation models, BP and GA-BP, were compared with the evaluation results of the two algorithms, GA and BSA. It was found that the GA-BP neural network evaluation model has higher accuracy and can be used for multimodal digital teaching quality evaluation, providing a more feasible solution.

Abstract
Groundwater (GW) is a critical freshwater resource for billions of individuals worldwide. Rapid anthropogenic exploitation has increasingly deteriorated GW quality and quantity. Reliable estimation of complex hydrochemical properties of GW is crucial for sustainable development. Real field and experimental studies in an agricultural area from the significant sandstone aquifers (Wajid Aquifer) were conducted. For the modelling purpose, three types of computational models, including the emerging Hammerstein–Wiener (HW), back propagation neural network (BPNN), and statistical multi-variate regression (MVR), were developed for the multi-station estimation of total dissolved solids (TDS) (mg/L) and total hardness (TH) (mg/L). A geographic information system (GIS) was used for the spatial variability assessment of 32 hydrochemical and physical properties of the GW aquifer. A comprehensive visualized literature review spanning several decades was conducted in order to gain an understanding of the existing research and debates relevant to a particular GW and artificial intelligence (AI) study. The experimental data, pre-processing, and feature selection were conducted to determine the most dominant variables for AI-based modelling. The estimation results were evaluated using determination coefficient (DC), mean bias error (MBE), mean square error (MSE), and root mean square error (RMSE). The outcomes proved that TDS (mg/L) and TH (mg/L) correlated more than 90% and 70–85% with Ca2+, Cl−, Br−, NO3−, and Fe, and Na+, SO42−, Mg2+, and F− combinations, respectively. HW-M1 justified promising among all the models with MBE = 1.41 × 10−11, 1.14 × 10−14, and MSE = 7.52 × 10−2, 3.88 × 10−11 for TDS (mg/L), TH (mg/L), respectively. The accuracy proved merit for the overall development of and practical estimation of hydrochemical variables (TDS, TH) (mg/L) and decision-making benchmarks.

Abstract
Predicting the level of dissolved oxygen (DO) is an important issue ensuring the sustainability of the inhabitants of a river. A prediction model can predict the DO level using a historical dataset with regard to water temperature, pH, and specific conductance for a given river. The model can be built using sophisticated computational procedures such as multi-layer perceptron-based artificial neural networks. Different types of networks can be constructed for this purpose. In this study, the authors constructed three networks, namely, multi-verse optimizer (MVO), black hole algorithm (BHA), and shuffled complex evolution (SCE). The networks were trained using the datasets collected from the Klamath River Station, Oregon, USA, for the period 2015–2018. We found that the trained networks could predict the DO level of 2019. We also found that both BHA- and SCE-based networks could predict the level of DO using a relatively simple configuration compared to that of MVO. From the viewpoints of absolute errors and Pearson’s correlation coefficient, MVO- and SCE-based networks performed better than BHA-based networks. In synopsis, the authors recommend MVO- and MLP-based artificial neural networks for predicting the DO level of a river.

Abstract
Resilience-informed water quality management embraces the growing environmental challenges and provides greater accuracy by unpacking the systems' characteristics in response to failure conditions in order to identify more effective opportunities for intervention. Assessing the resilience of water quality requires complex analysis of influential parameters which can be challenging, time consuming and costly to compute. It may also require building detailed conceptual and/or physically process-based models that are difficult to build, calibrate and validate. This study utilises Artificial Neural Network (ANN) to develop a novel application to predict water quality resilience to simplify resilience evaluation. The Fuzzy Analytic Hierarchy Process method is used to rank water basins based on their level of resilience and to identify the ones that demand prompt restoration strategies. The commonly used 'magnitude * duration of being in failure state' quantification method has been used to formulate and evaluate resilience. A 17-years long water quality dataset from the 22 water basins in the State of São Paulo, Brazil, was used to train and test the ANN model. The overall agreement between the measured and simulated WQI resilience values is satisfactory and hence, can be used by planners and decision makers for improved water management. Moreover, comparative analyses show similarities and differences between the 'level of criticalities' reported in each zone by Environment Agency of the state of São Paulo (CETESB) and by the resilience model in this study.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to model the surface water quality of the Broad River Basin, South Carolina. The most suitable two monitoring stations numbered as USGS 02156500 (Near Carlisle) and USGS 02160991 (Near Jenkinsville) were selected for the reason that the river water temperature (WT), pH, and specific conductance (SC), as well as dissolved oxygen (DO) concentration, were simultaneously monitored and recorded at these sites. The monitoring period from September 2016 to August 2017 was taken into account for the modeling studies. The electrical conductivity (EC) values corresponding to the river SC values were calculated. First, the conventional regression analysis (CRA) was applied to three regression forms, i.e., linear, power, and exponential functions, to estimate the river DO concentration. Then, the multivariate adaptive regression splines (MARS) and TreeNet gradient boosting machine (TreeNet) techniques were employed. Three performance statistics, i.e., root means square error (RMSE), mean absolute error (MAE), and Nash-Sutcliffe coefficient of efficiency (NS), were used to compare the estimation capabilities of these techniques. The TreeNet technique, which was used for the first time in the modeling of DO concentration, had higher estimation success with the RMSE, MAE, and NS values of 0.182 mg/L, 0.123 mg/L, and 0.990, respectively, for the Carlisle station and 0.313 mg/L, 0.233 mg/L, and 0.965, respectively, for the Jenkinsville station in the training phase. The MARS technique, which had limited availability of its application in the modeling of DO concentration, had higher estimation success with the RMSE, MAE, and NS values of 0.240 mg/L, 0.195 mg/L, and 0.981, respectively, for the Carlisle station and 0.527 mg/L, 0.432 mg/L, and 0.980, respectively, for the Jenkinsville station in the testing phase. Considering the RMSE and MAE values being lower, as well as NS values being higher for the model having an input combination of WT, pH, and EC, the Carlisle station came into prominence. It was concluded that international researchers, who have engaged in the river water quality modeling studies, can favor the MARS and TreeNET techniques without any hesitation and estimate the river DO concentration successfully. The models developed for the Carlisle station were tested with the data sets for the monitoring period from September 2017 to August 2018 at the same station. Similarly, the models developed for the Jenkinsville station were tested with the data sets for the monitoring period from September 2017 to August 2018 at the same station. It was concluded that the models could estimate the river DO concentrations very close to in situ measurements at the same site but for the different monitoring periods, too. Furthermore, the models developed for the Carlisle station were tested with the data sets from the Jenkinsville station for the same monitoring period. Similarly, the models developed for the Jenkinsville station were tested with the data sets from the Carlisle station for the same monitoring period. It was also concluded that the developed models could estimate the river DO concentrations very close to in situ measurements at different monitoring sites but for the same monitoring period on the same river, too. It can be asserted that the models developed for any monitoring site on a river can be employed for another monitoring site on the same river, too, as in the case of the Broad River, South Carolina.

Abstract
Prediction of dissolved oxygen which is an important water quality (WQ) parameter is crucial for aquatic managers who have responsibility for the ecosystem health's maintenance and for the management of reservoirs related to WQ. This study proposes a new ensemble method, Bayesian model averaging (BMA), for estimating hourly dissolved oxygen. The potential of the BMA was investigated and compared with five data-driven methods, extreme leaning machine (ELM), artificial neural networks (ANNs), adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS), classification and regression tree (CART), and multilinear regression (MLR), by considering hourly temperature, pH, and specific conductivity data as inputs. The methods were compared with respect to three statistics, root mean square errors (RMSE), Nash-Sutcliffe efficiency, and determination coefficient. Results based on two stations' data indicated that the proposed method performed superior to the ELM, ANN, ANFIS, CART, and MLR in estimation of hourly dissolved oxygen; corresponding improvements obtained by BMA are about 5-8%, 13-12%, 7-9%, and 18-27% with respect to RMSE. The ELM also outperformed the other four methods (ANN, ANFIS, CART, and MLR), and the CART and MLR indicated the lowest estimation accuracy in both stations. Examination of various input combinations revealed that the most effective variable is water temperature while the specific conductivity has negligible effect on hourly dissolved oxygen.
