Forecasting agriculture water demand is significant to optimize confirmation of water resources. In this study, we introduce a hybrid model which combines rough set theory and least square support vector machine to forecast the agriculture irrigation water demand. Through a certain district agriculture irrigation water demand dataset experiment, we have proved that the reduction feature set exacted by RST has good subject-independence and intrinsic good separability.Weighted LS-SVM predictor demonstrated promising prediction accuracy, better generalization ability and more rapid execution speed than most of the all benchmarking methods listed in this study.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
