Use of Artificial Neural Networks Type MLP for the Prediction of Phosphorus Level from the Physicochemical Parameters of Sediments

Abstract

Abstract: The present work is a contribution on the development of mathematical models for predicting the phosphorus contents based on the physicochemical properties of the sediments of the reservoir of the water damSidi Chahed (Meknes, Morocco). For that purpose, artificial neural networks (ANN) of type multilayer perceptron (MLP) was used. The data base used corresponds to 118 samples of superficial sediments taken fromseveral stations, and distributed in space and time at the level of the reservoir of the water power plant Sidi Chahed. This data base of the neural network, which was collected between 2010 and 2012, consists of the phosphorus content (variable to explain or to predict) and physical and chemical parameters as explicative or predictive variables. The performance of the mathematical models provided by artificial neural networks of typePMC was compared to the multiple linear regression model (MLP). This comparison showed that neural stochastic models are more efficient compared to the model on the MLR standard method, for the prediction ofthe phosphorus. This result can be explained by the existence of a non-linear relationship between the investigated physical and chemical parameters and the phosphorus contents of sediments from the dam's reservoir. The obtained results showed that the most efficient model is that of type PMC with the configuration [14-7-1], which uses, as transfer functions, the hyperbolic tangent function in the hidden layer and in the output layer, and learning algorithm of type quasi Newton BFGS.
