New approach to predict fecal coliform removal for stormwater biofilter applications

Fecal coliform removal using stormwater biofilters is an important aspect of stormwater management. A model that can provide an accurate prediction of fecal coliform removal is essential. Therefore, feedforward backpropagation neural network (FBNN) and adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) m...
