Abstract:

The use of bivalve mollusks as bioindicators in automated monitoring systems of the aquatic environment makes it possible to detect in real time an emergency situation associated with pollution of the aquatic environment. The use of machine learning algorithms allows to quickly detect an anomaly for the subsequent generation of an alarm. In the present work, the seasonal ARIMA model was used to predict the data of mollusk activity and detect anomalies. The activity data (valve opening value) of freshwater mollusks Unio pictorum (Linnaeus, 1758) for the period from February 26 to April 24, 2017 were used in the work. The data were obtained by the complex of automated biomonitoring of the aquatic environment developed by the authors, which was installed at the hydroelectric complex No. 14 of the river Chernaya. The choice of the optimal parameters of the ARIMA model was carried out, and to assess the quality of the model, the indicators (errors) RMSE and MAPE were calculated. The smallest RMSE (0.130064) and MAPE (0.023506%) errors were obtained for the ARIMA model of the order (p, d, q) = (0, 1, 1) and the seasonal order (P, D, Q, m) = (1, 1, 1). On the example of the synchronous reaction of mollusks to a stressful situation on April 24, 2017, the result of prediction of mollusk activity is shown. During the anomalous event, the actual value of our variable deviated significantly from the predicted value. Moreover, this deviation exceeded the 95% confidence interval of the model prediction. The results show the possibility of using the ARIMA model with a seasonal component for anomaly detection, which allows integrating the developed algorithmic approach into the software of biological systems of early detection in the future.
