Özet
This paper aimed to estimate the reference evapotranspiration (ET0) due to some limitations of the Food and Agriculture Organization-56 Penman-Monteith (FAO 56-PM) approach by using five alternative machine learning models. The study makes an important contribution to the ET0 estimation success for of the ET0 of 12 stations with variable climate characteristics in the Central Anatolian Region (CAR). The performances of the models were compared with the coefficient of determination (R2), mean absolute error (MAE), and root mean square error (RMSE) metrics that are frequently cited in the literature, and also with the performance index (PI). Long short-term memory (LSTM), artificial neural networks (ANN), and multivariate adaptive regression splines (MARS) models provided the best performance in eight, three, and one stations, respectively. The R2, MAE, RMSE, and PI values of the selected models from …
