摘要：Stream flow (SF) prediction is considered as a very complex due to the hydrological systems of surface water are complex and dynamic. The reliable prediction of stream flow (SF) can be performed by either conceptual or data-driven based models. In the modelling of hydrological processes, the support vector machine (SVM) is a novel, data-driven approach. Hence, six SVM-based models were generated in this study to predict real time hourly SF in the Selangor River Basin from the water level and rainfall of upstream stations. These models composed of six different combinations of input variables and were trained and tested under hourly records of SF, rainfall, and water level over one year (2011). Among the SVM-based models, SVM-M6, which has nine input variables, was the most effective. Under the training and testing data sets, its correlation coefficient and mean absolute error values were 0.992, 0.953, 0.061 and 0.253 respectively.
