The process of evapotranspiration (ET) is a vital part of the water cycle. Exact estimation of the value of ET is necessary for designing irrigation systems and water resources management. Accurate estimation of ET is essential in agriculture, its over-estimation leads to cause the waste of valuable water resources and its underestimation leads to the plant moisture stress and decrease in the crop yield. The well known Penman-Monteith (PM) equation always performs the highest accuracy results of estimating reference Evapotranspiration (ET0) among the existing methods is without any discussion. However, the equation requires climatic data that are not always available particularly for a developing country. ET0 is a complex process which is depending on a number of interacting meteorological factors, such as temperature, humidity, wind speed, and radiation. The lack of physical understanding of ET0 process and unavailability of all appropriate data results in imprecise estimation of ET0. Over the past two decades, artificial neural networks (ANNs) have been increasingly applied in modeling of hydrological processes because of their ability in mapping the input–output relationship without any understanding of physical process. This paper investigates for the first time in the semiarid environment of Junagadh, the potential of an artificial neural network (ANN) for estimating ET0 with limited climatic data set.

The Document classification system is the field of data mining in which the format of data is based on bag of words (BoW) or document vector model and the task is to build a machine which after successfully learn the characteristic of given data set, predicts the category of the document to which the word vector belongs. In this approach document is represented by BoW where every single word is used as feature which occurs in a document. The proposed article presents artificial neural network approach which is hybrid of n-fold cross validation and training-validation-test approach for classification of data.

In this paper to make use of complementary potential in the mapping of LULC spatial data is acquired from LandSat 8 OLI sensor images are taken in 2019.  They have been rectified, enhanced and then classified according to Random forest (RF) and artificial neural network (ANN) methods. Optical remote sensing images have been used to get information on the status of LULC classification, and extraction details. The classification of both satellite image types is used to extract features and to analyse LULC of the study area. The results of the classification showed that the artificial neural network method outperforms the random forest method. The required image processing has been made for Optical Remote Sensing Data to be used in LULC mapping, include the geometric correction, Image Enhancements, The overall accuracy when using the ANN methods 0.91 and the kappa accuracy was found 0.89 for the training data set. While the overall accuracy and the kappa accuracy of the test dataset were found 0.89 and 0.87 respectively.
