Sediment yield model for small watersheds based on coupling of partial least square regression and artificial neural network

With regard to the complexity of sediment yield in small watersheds, a coupling partial least square regression and artificial neural network model was proposed by combining the partial least square regression with the artificial neural network. The proposed model was applied to the prediction of sediment yield owing to precipitation in small watersheds. The information of multi-dimensional independent variables was combined and extracted by use of the partial least square regression so as to find the most important components with strong interpretation capacity for dependent variables and satisfactory depiction for independent variables. Accordingly, the problem of multi-correlations among variables could be solved, and the amount of input dimensions could be reduced. The extracted components were regarded as the input of the artificial neural network. The learning efficiency and robustness of the network were improved. The results show that the proposed model is of higher fitting and prediction precisions than the models based on the partial least square regression or the artificial neural network.
