In this study, artificial neural network (ANN) model was used to simulate the streamflow in the Srepok watershed, Vietnam. Correlation analysis of time series for precipitation and streamflow was employed to determine input data for the ANN model. This result indicated a significant correlation up to 2 day time lag and 1 day time lag for the precipitation and streamflow series data, respectively. According to the correlation analysis, three ANN models including ANN1, ANN2, and ANN3 were

... ated. A 3-year data record for the precipitation and streamflow was used for ANN training and testing. The result of ANN training and testing showed that the ANN2 with 3 input data (P(t), P(t-1), and Q(t- 1)) gave the best simulation (NSE = 0.95 for training period and NSE = 0.96 for testing period) comparing to those of ANN1 and ANN3. In addition, the comparison of ANNs showed that the increase of the input data did not offer the better result.
