The potential of FFNN and MLP-FFA approaches in prediction of Manning coefficient in ripple and dune bedforms

An accurate prediction of roughness coefficient is of substantial importance for river management. The current study applies two artificial intelligence methods namely; Feed-Forward Neural Network (FFNN) and Multilayer Perceptron Firefly Algorithm (MLP-FFA) to predict the Manning roughness coefficie...
