Forthcoming and Online First Articles

International Journal of Quality Engineering and Technology (IJQET)

Forthcoming articles have been peer-reviewed and accepted for publication but are pending final changes, are not yet published and may not appear here in their final order of publication until they are assigned to issues. Therefore, the content conforms to our standards but the presentation (e.g. typesetting and proof-reading) is not necessarily up to the Inderscience standard. Additionally, titles, authors, abstracts and keywords may change before publication. Articles will not be published until the final proofs are validated by their authors.

Forthcoming articles must be purchased for the purposes of research, teaching and private study only. These articles can be cited using the expression "in press". For example: Smith, J. (in press). Article Title. Journal Title.

Online First articles are published online here, before they appear in a journal issue. Online First articles are fully citeable, complete with a DOI. They can be cited, read, and downloaded. Online First articles are published as Open Access (OA) articles to make the latest research available as early as possible.

Open AccessArticles marked with this Open Access icon are Online First articles. They are freely available and openly accessible to all without any restriction except the ones stated in their respective CC licenses.

    Abstract: If you are in charge of water sources, you need to be able to guess how streams will flow. We can learn a lot from this study about how well complicated deep learning models can guess when the Gilgit River Basin’s water level will be high and low every month. CNN-LSTM, CNN-BiLSTM, CNN-GRU, CNN-BiGRU, LSTM, BiLSTM, and GRU were all employed. Each of the final four is a combination of these. The model did well for our study based on its RMSE, MAE, NSE, and R2 marks. There’s a problem. R2 tells you how strong a link is. Simple models like LSTM and GRU did not do as well with that data. But the mix models did a lot better. CNN-BiGRU and CNN-BiLSTM did the best most of the time. It was taught with an R2 of 0.962 and tested with an R2 of 0.929. It got 144.1%, which was good enough for second place. CNN can help you find things in space. Now, things have a better chance of going well.
    Keywords: long short-term memory; LSTM; gated recurrent unit; GRU; background; CNN-Bi LSTM.
