Hybrid Wavelet Neural Network Approach for Daily Inflow Forecasting Using Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission Data
A novel wavelet-artificial neural network hybrid model (WA-ANN) for short-term daily inflow forecasting is proposed, using for the first time Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) data together with inflow data, which were transformed using mother-wavelets to improve the model performance. The models were assessed using the inflow records to a Brazilian reservoir named Três Marias, located in the São Francisco River basin, and daily rainfall estimates from the TRMM both for the period of 1998–2012. Several combinations of inputs for both regular and hybrid artificial neural networks (ANN) were assessed to forecast inflows seven days ahead, and it was proved that the WA-ANN had a superior performance. Even the WA-ANN model, which uses only the approximation at level three of rainfall data, provided a higher performance than the regular ANN, which uses the raw inflow data [ increase 16%, Nash–Sutcliffe model efficiency coefficient (NASH) increase 35%, and root-mean-square deviation (RMSD) decrease 47%]. It was also found the best model was the WA-ANN with transformed rainfall and inflow data as input ( increase 20%, NASH increase 44%, and RMSD decrease 69%).
