Aiming at the difficulty of selecting the appropriate kernel function type, kernel function parame-ters, penalty coefficients of support vectors, and insensitive loss parameters in practical applica-tions of support vector model, in this paper, co-evolution algorithm is employed to simultaneously evolve selection the data features, the kernel type of support vector regression, the parameters of the kernel function and the model parameters, namely HPSOSA-SVR by hybrid the strengths of Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) and Simulated Annealing (SA). In order to select the optimal support vector regression kernel function type, the optimal matching kernel function parameter and the support vector model parameter for runoff modelling, the co-evolution algorithm focuses on combining the advantages of PSO (fast calculation and easy mechanism) and SA (ability to jump away from local optimum solutions and converge to the global optimum solution) by combined the metropolis processes of SA into the movement mechanism and parallel processing of PSO. The HPSOSA algorithm has the capability of both fast calculation and searching in the direction of the global optimum solution, helping PSO jump out of local optima, avoiding into the local optimal solution early and leads to a good solution. Compared with HPSOSA, PSO and pure SVR, results show that the HPSOSA-SVR model can successfully identify the optimal type of kernel function and all the optimal values of the parameters of SVR with the lowest prediction error values in runoff forecasting, can significantly improve the runoff forecasting accuracy. Experimental results reveal that the predictions using the proposed approach are consistently better than those obtained using the other methods presented in this study in terms of the same measurements.
