Over het archief
Het OWA, het open archief van het Waterbouwkundig Laboratorium heeft tot doel alle vrij toegankelijke onderzoeksresultaten van dit instituut in digitale vorm aan te bieden. Op die manier wil het de zichtbaarheid, verspreiding en gebruik van deze onderzoeksresultaten, alsook de wetenschappelijke communicatie maximaal bevorderen.
Dit archief wordt uitgebouwd en beheerd volgens de principes van de Open Access Movement, en het daaruit ontstane Open Archives Initiative.

| Abstract |
This thesis evaluates ML models and their behaviour with different methods and hydrologic regimes. This study will help to understand the generalisability of the ML models, while also enabling improvements in (urban) water management. In this thesis, a multicriteria analysis (MCA) was used to assess a wide range of ML models. Next, during two case studies, a subset of these models were applied to infill gaps in groundwater, sewage water and surface water levels using the intra-station and inter-station methods. In the MCA, it was found that Support Vector Regressor (SVR), Random Forest (RF), Gradient Boosting Trees (GBT), Multilayer Perceptron (MLP), Self-Organising Map (SOM) and Long-Short Term Memory (LSTM) were sufficiently suitable. In the first case study, the use of these models with the intra-station approach led to mixed results for infilling small artificial gaps. Generally, acceptable MSE scores were achieved but poor NSE and KGE scores implied limited scalability. The second case study showed more promising results with the inter-station method on an artificial gap of seven months. This method proved to be more scalable as all metrics indicated acceptable performance. In the end, it was concluded that both the RF and GBT models performed most robustly. The MLP and LSTM models showed great potential but suffered from inconsistency, potentially caused by too little training data. It was also found that the inter-station method proved more scalable as compared to the intra-station approach. Furthermore, it was found that success is dependent upon conditions of the hydrologic regime such as human intervention. |
