Abstract:Predicting the coagulant dosage is especially crucial to the purification process in water treatment plants, directly affecting the quality of the purified water. Nowadays, several mathematical methods have been adopted for the purification process, but their predictive precision and speed still need to be improved. This study applies a novel neural network called the extreme learning machine (ELM) to predict the coagulant dosage based on certain signification factors of the raw water. Performances are compare… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
