A comparative study of data-driven models for runoff, sediment, and nitrate forecasting.

Journal of environmental management
Effective prediction of qualitative and quantitative indicators for runoff is quite essential in water resources planning and management. However, although several data-driven and model-driven forecasting approaches have been employed in the literatu...

Machine learning models for estimating contamination across different curbside collection strategies.

Journal of environmental management
Contaminated recyclables, which are frequently discarded as waste, pose a significant challenge to the implementation of a circular economy. These contaminated recyclables impede the circulation of resources, resulting in higher processing costs at m...

Operational parameter prediction of electrocoagulation system in a rural decentralized water treatment plant by interpretable machine learning model.

Journal of environmental management
Electrocoagulation (EC) is a promising alternative for decentralized drinking water treatment in rural areas as a chemical-free technology. However, seasonal fluctuations of water quality in influent remain a significant challenge for rural decentral...

Large-scale prediction of stream water quality using an interpretable deep learning approach.

Journal of environmental management
Deep learning methods, which have strong capabilities for mapping highly nonlinear relationships with acceptable calculation speed, have been increasingly applied for water quality prediction in recent studies. However, it is argued that the practica...

Method and evaluations of the effective gain of artificial intelligence models for reducing CO2 emissions.

Journal of environmental management
Nowadays, there is an increasing use of digital technologies and Artificial Intelligence (AI) such as Machine Learning (ML) models that leverage data to optimize the performances of systems in almost all activity sectors, including ML models for opti...
