Abstract
In this study, cuckoo search is introduced for performing the parameter estimation of shallow wave equation for the first time. Cuckoo search (CS) is invented based on the inspiration of brood parasitic behavior of some cuckoo species in combination with the Levy flight behavior. These meta-heuristics have been successfully used for solving some optimization problems with promising results. However, this emerging optimization method has not been applied in parameter inversion problem. This study reports a CS-based parameter estimation method to inverse the roughness coefficient and the coefficient of eddy viscosity under some specific conditions. Simulation results and experimental data show that cuckoo search offers a reliable performance for these parameter estimation problems.
