Forecasting of stage-discharge in a non-perennial river using machine learning with gamma test.

Knowledge of the stage-discharge rating curve is useful in designing and planning flood warnings; thus, developing a reliable stage-discharge rating curve is a fundamental and crucial component of water resource system engineering.
