Deep Learning Foundations and Pattern Models: Challenges in Hydrological Time Series

Junyang He, Ying-Jung Chen, Anushka Idamekorala, Geoffrey Fox

This repo contains the LSTM model and data preprocessing code for the paper Deep Learning Foundations and Pattern Models: Challenges in Hydrological Time Series.

Hydrology-LSTM.ipynb

Our executable model script is designed to be run on Google Colab.

Train

• Training checkpoints will be stored in a directory named "checkpoints" in the specified root directory.
• Locations used for training and validation are stored in a file named "Validation[RunName]" in the specified root directory.

Evaluation

• One must select a previously finished run to evaluate.
• Plots will be stored in a directory named "Outputs" in the specified root directory.

Data

Available for download from Zenodo.
