چکیده

In this study, a support vector machine (SVM) based technique for timing irrigation projects is presented, and one of the most accurate predictive models in calculating the final project duration within the contract documents, where the research problem is projects are not completed within the contract period because most of the total project duration is determined In an unthoughtful manner by the employer. Linear regression models were applied to data and information for several projects, and a significant improvement in forecast accuracy was obtained.
