Data-driven forecasting and modeling of runoff flow to reduce flood risk using a novel hybrid wavelet-neural network based on feature extraction

The reliable forecasting of river flow plays a key role in reducing the risk of floods. Regarding nonlinear and variable characteristics of hydraulic processes, the use of data-driven and hybrid methods has become more noticeable. Thus, this paper proposes a novel hybrid wavelet-neural network (WNN)...
