In the present study, the performance of the support vector machine for estimating vertical drop hydraulic parameters in the presence of dual horizontal screens has been investigated. For this purpose, 120 different laboratory data were used to estimate three parameters of the drop: the relative length, the downstream relative depth, and the residual relative energy in the support vector machine. For each parameter, 12 models were analyzed by using a support vector machine. The performance of the models was evaluated with statistical criteria (R2, DC, and RMSE) and the best model was introduced for each of the parameters. The evaluation criteria for the relative length of the vertical drop equipped with dual horizontal screens for the testing stage are R2 = 0.992, DC = 0.981 and RMSE = 0.050. Also, the values of the downstream relative depth evaluation indicators for the testing stage are R2 = 0.9866, DC = 0.980 and, RMSE = 0.0064. For the residual relative energy parameter, the values of the residual relative energy evaluation indicators are R2 = 0.9949, DC = 0.9853 and RMSE = 0.0056. The results showed the capacity for this approach to predict the hydraulic performance of these systems with accuracy.
