To minimize losses caused by flooding of areas in a river basin, flood risk management may sacrifice the interests of some areas. Because of regional differences in natural and urban conditions, rankings of the urgencies of flood drainage rights allo...
In recent years, the development of sewage treatment technologies has made many treatment options available in towns. Selecting the most appropriate alternative (MAA) can make the best use of existing resources to achieve the optimal effect, which ha...
Forecasting household waste generation using traditional methods is particularly challenging due to its high variability and uncertainty. Unlike studies that forecast waste generation at municipal or country levels, household data can present rapid s...
The aim of this study was to establish a method for predicting heavy metal concentrations in PM (aerosol particles with an aerodynamic diameter ≤ 1.0 μm) based on back propagation artificial neural network (BP-ANN) and support vector machine (SVM) me...
