Intelligent methods for weather forecasting: A review

摘要

Weather forecasting is one of the most important and challenging field for scientists and engineers. The advent of technology has enabled us to obtain forecasts using complex mathematical models. For the last three decades, artificial intelligent based learning models like neural networks, genetic algorithms and neuro-fuzzy logic have shown much better results as compared to Box-Cox modeling approaches. Further accuracy is expectable by constructing a consortium of statistical and artificial intelligent methods. For weather forecasting, researcher's trend is also towards the hybrid models. The accuracy of forecasting models can be made using different measures of assessments. In this paper, some hybrid methods are discussed with their merits and demerits.
