Support Vector Regression (SVR) is a very useful precipitation prediction model. In this paper, a novel parallel co-evolution algorithm is presented to determine the appropriate parameters of the SVR in rainfall prediction based on parallel co-evolution by hybrid Genetic Algorithm and Particle Swarm Optimization algorithm, namely SVRGAPSO, for monthly rainfall prediction. The framework of the parallel co-evolutionary algorithm is to iterate two GA and PSO populations simultaneously, which is a mechanism for information exchange between GA and PSO populations to overcome premature local optimum. Our methodology adopts a hybrid PSO and GA for the optimal parameters of SVR by parallel co-evolving. The proposed technique is applied over rainfall forecasting to test its generalization capability as well as to make comparative evaluations with the several competing techniques, such as the other alternative methods, namely SVRPSO (SVR with PSO), SVRGA (SVR with GA), and SVR model. The empirical results indicate that the SVRGAPSO results have a superior generalization capability with the lowest prediction error values in rainfall forecasting. The SVRGAPSO can significantly improve the rainfall forecasting accuracy. Therefore, the SVRGAPSO model is a promising alternative for rainfall forecasting.展开更多

The co-evolution computing techniques, inspired by natural selection and genetics, are usually used to solve these problems. Based on learning and evolution mechanisms of the biological systems, an adaptive co-evolution model was proposed in this paper. Inner-population, inter-population, and community learning operators were presented. The adaptive co-evolution algorithm (ACEA) was designed in detail. Some simulation experiments were done to evaluate the performance of the ACEA. The results show that the ACEA is more effective and feasible than the genetic algorithm to solve the optimization problems.展开更多
