Application of hybrid PSO-RBF neural network in water quality evaluation

This paper is inclined to optimize the model parameters (weights) through the particle swarm optimization (PSO),by which the weights of the connected output units can be taken as the chief parameters that may affect the learning accuracy of the radial basis function neural network (RBF).For the research purpose,we have established a PSO-RBF coupled neural net work model so as to get rid of the artificial weight sets and enhance the research objectivity.At the same time,we have also constructed the radial basis function network evaluation model for the groundwater environmental quality evaluation while the seawater eutrophication evaluation can be done by means of the programmed calculation in the Matlab environment.The aforementioned radial basis evaluation model can thus be applied to the evaluation of the groundwater quality of the 5 groundwater monitoring points in the Helongdong spring area and the eutrophication of a certain one seawater point.For the purpose of the research,we have also calculated the weights of the output units of the RBF and substituted the optimal weight method into the RBF network to assess the water quality of the corresponding monitoring points in the said spring area.The results of thc evaluation we have done prove to be the same with those gained with the other methods,and well in accord with the actual situations in accordance with the other resources.In addition,the PSO-RBF coupling model can also help to produce more accurate and reasonable evaluation results than the RBF neural network gained in the traditional least-squares methods.For the weight of RBF network model,once optimized by PSO algorithm,can get rid of the disadvantages of the artificial sets and increase the objectivity and versatility.Apart from the above mentioned advantages,the re sults can also be quantitatively represented by the real numbers between 0 and 1,with the water quality being described continuously in specific indexes.Therefore,the suggested PSO-RBF coupled neural network model can be said of popular practicability and great versatility through successful applications in a great number of evaluation cases.
