Description
Summary:This paper proposes a method for short-term weekly water-demand forecasting combining various statistical techniques. In the proposed method, training datasets are prepared through exploratory data analysis, several data preprocessing steps, and an input selection step; also, forecasting models are constructed by support vector regression. After this, weekly water-demand forecasts are calculated using iterated and direct strategies. To verify the performance, the proposed method is applied to urban hourly water-demand datasets provided by the Battle of Water Demand Forecasting organized in the 3rd WDSA-CCWI Joint Conference.
