Abstract: The author compares the performances of three optimization algorithms as concerns their efficiency in parameter estimation and minimizing the criterion function in the field of rainfall-runoff modeling. This modeling has been put within the framework of nonlinear regression analysis; some results relating to such a formulation are given. Particular emphasis is given to the construction of a daily rainfall-runoff model with continuous derivatives of the criterion function with respect to model parameters.
