A reliable streamflow forecasting is essential for flood disaster prevention, reservoir operation, water supply and water resources management. This study proposes a hybrid model for river stage forecasting and investigates its accuracy. The proposed model is the wavelet packet-based artificial neural network(WPANN). Wavelet packet transform(WPT) module in WPANN model is employed to decompose an input time series into approximation and detail components. The decomposed time series are then used as inputs of artificial neural network(ANN) module in WPANN model. Based on model performance indexes, WPANN models are found to produce better efficiency than ANN model. WPANN-sym10 model yields the best performance among all other models. It is found that WPT improves the accuracy of ANN model. The results obtained from this study indicate that the conjunction of WPT and ANN can improve the efficiency of ANN model and can be a potential tool for forecasting river stage more accurately.

논문에서는 구조물의 건전성 평가를 위하여 지진하중을 받은 프레임 구조물의 응답 가속도를 웨이블렛펙킷 변환(Wavelet Packet Transform; WPT)을 이용하여 분해한 후 인공신경망을 이용하여 각 부재의 손상도를 평가하였다. 인공신경망에는 응답가속도의 분해된 성분 중 에너지가 가장 큰 5개의 성분이 입력 값으로 사용 되었는데 인공신경망의 출력층에 있는 2개의 노드는 각각 손상된 부재와 손상도를 나타낸다. 이 논문에서 제시된 방법을 이용하여 구조물의 손상된 부재와 손상도를 평가하였고 만족스러운 결과를 얻었다.
