Description
Summary:An accurate prediction of lake water levels is of great significance to water resource regulation, flood prevention and mitigation. However, water level fluctuations have been increasingly serious due to abnormal climate and extreme events. In view of this, a VMD-EF-OBILSTM model was constructed for lake water levels based on multiple sources of hydrological and meteorological variables. In this model, water level data are transformed into low-frequency internal and high-frequency external terms by variable modal decomposition (VMD), and they are combined with external factors (EF) for multivariate prediction. The optimized bi-directional long short-term memory (OBILSTM) invokes the attention mechanism and optimizes the model's hyperparameters by whale optimization algorithm (WOA). Ultimately, the predictions of each component are linearly combined to obtain the forecast values. The empirical results with water level data from Poyang Lake in China show that the multi-source deep learning model can achieve higher prediction accuracy and lower prediction uncertainty. •A deep learning model combined VMD-EF-OBILSTM for lake levels prediction is proposed.•Key parameters of the VMD can be adjusted automatically and optimally using the IWOA.•The adaptive function of IWOA based on E-EK can evaluate IMF features in several ways.•IMF is divided into internal and external terms for self and multivariate prediction.•The VMD-EF-OBILSTM includes external factors and performs better than standard models.
