Analysis of Hydrological Data Based on BP Neural Network Approximation and Polynomial Fitting

Article Preview

Abstract:

It is an important means of hydrological data analysis for drawing hydrological data curve. The paper conducts a study on drawing method of stage-discharge curve in two aspects including BP neural network approximation and curve fitting, according to data extracted from a hydrologic station located in Suqian section of Beijing-Hangzhou Canal. Normalization of the input sample is processed in order to caculate conveniently and prevent partial neurons to supersaturate. Then, neuronal number is determined by method of heuristics. And the transfer function and training function are finalized on the premise of target error 0.0001.Error analysis is performed after simulation of BP network approximation. 2- and 3-order curve fitting is done based on principle of least squares of polynomial fitting, then followed by error analysis. Comparison of both methods comes to the conclusion that approximation of BP network for a given data is more accurate than that of curve fitting.
