The GP, SVM-FFA, ANN and SVM-Wavelet modeling of ET0 was reported.SVM-Wavelet had the smallest RMSE of 0.233mmday-1 in testing phase.The ANN model had the largest RMSE of 0.450mmday-1.SVM-Wavelet model was found to perform better than the GP, SVM-FFA and ANN models. Accurate estimation of reference evapotranspiration (ET0) is needed for planning and managing water resources and agricultural production. The FAO-56 Penman-Monteith equation is used to determinate ET0 based on the data collected during the period 1980-2010 in Serbia. In order to forecast ET0, four soft computing methods were analyzed: genetic programming (GP), support vector machine-firefly algorithm (SVM-FFA), artificial neural network (ANN), and support vector machine-wavelet (SVM-Wavelet). The reliability of these computational models was analyzed based on simulation results and using five statistical tests including Pearson correlation coefficient, coefficient of determination, root-mean-square error, absolute percentage error, and mean absolute error. The end-point result indicates that SVM-Wavelet is the best methodology for ET0 prediction, whereas SVM-Wavelet and SVM-FFA models have higher correlation coefficient as compared to ANN and GP computational methods. |
