In coastal engineering, empirical formulas grounded on experimental works regarding the
stability of breakwaters have been developed. In recent years, soft computing tools such as …

Abstract In this paper, Least Square Support Vector Machine (LSSVM) is used for estimating
mean wave overtopping discharge at a quarter circle breakwater for varying radii and …

Time series forecasting remains a challenging task owing to its nonlinear, complex and
chaotic behavior. The purpose of this paper is to analyze the forecast performance of …

Time series data are not very simple. They are subject to many complexities, instabilities,
and nonlinearities which emerge due to dynamic behavior of economy. Due to complexity …
