The role of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs), more commonly known as drones, in society continues to become more significant every day, both in everyday life and in military operations. The extent to which unmanned vehicles are used for both offensive as well as reconnaissance missions is at an all-time high. To expand the number of operational...

Genetic Programming in Hydrology: Using genetic programming in conceptual modelling

This report introduces the use of Genetic Programming (GP) into hydrology by describing the results of GP using conceptual hydrological models as physical representation. First the possibilities of GP are tested on synthetic data, which results in a shortlist of good working objective functions and insight in the most important GP settings. The...
