Monthly Stream Flow Prediction Using Support Vector Machine Based on Principal Component Analysis

The main goal of this research is to evaluate the role of input selection by Principal Component Analysis (PCA) on Support Vector Machine (SVM) performance for monthly stream flow prediction. For this purpose, SVM is used to predict monthly flow as a function of 18 input variables. PCA is subsequent...
