Abstract
Water quality management is a crucial aspect of environmental protection, requiring the monitoring and regulation of effluent discharges into surface water bodies. This research introduces a novel approach to predicting Water Quality Evaluation (WQE) through a unique hybrid model, ABC-DWKNN-ICA, which integrates the Distance-weighted K-Nearest Neighbors (DWKNN) algorithm with the Artificial Bee Colony (ABC), Firefly Algorithm (FA), Imperialist Competitive Algorithm (ICA), and Gravitational Search Algorithm (GSA). Utilizing a comprehensive dataset of 1106 data points from Telangana, India, spanning 2018–2020, the study examines a range of water quality parameters, including Ground Water Level (GWL), Potential of Hydrogen (PH), Electrical Conductivity (EC), and others. The ABC-DWKNN-ICA model demonstrates exceptional performance in terms of Recall, Precision, Accuracy, and F1 Score for WQE prediction, distinguishing itself with enhanced feature selection, improved classification accuracy, robustness to noise and outliers, reduced dimensionality, and scalability to large datasets. This hybrid model represents a significant advancement over existing approaches, including traditional Hybrid Machine Learning (HML) algorithms such as ABC-DWKNN, FA-DWKNN, ICA-DWKNN, and GSA-DWKNN. By focusing on the capabilities of ABC-DWKNN-ICA rather than comparing all HML algorithms, the research highlights its superior effectiveness in water quality prediction, with performance metrics of 0.83 for Recall, 0.86 for Precision, 0.91 for Accuracy, and 0.86 for F1 Score. This study thus fills a critical research gap by demonstrating the model's value in environmental data analysis and offering promising prospects for more effective management of water resources. Additionally, feature selection, dimensionality reduction, enhanced accuracy, noise handling, and imbalanced dataset management are key advantages of the proposed model.
期刊介绍:
Dynamics of Atmospheres and Oceans is an international journal for research related to the dynamical and physical processes governing atmospheres, oceans and climate.
Authors are invited to submit articles, short contributions or scholarly reviews in the following areas:
•Dynamic meteorology
•Physical oceanography
•Geophysical fluid dynamics
•Climate variability and climate change
•Atmosphere-ocean-biosphere-cryosphere interactions
•Prediction and predictability
•Scale interactions
Papers of theoretical, computational, experimental and observational investigations are invited, particularly those that explore the fundamental nature - or bring together the interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary aspects - of dynamical and physical processes at all scales. Papers that explore air-sea interactions and the coupling between atmospheres, oceans, and other components of the climate system are particularly welcome.
