Research on Precipitation Prediction Based on Time Series Model

Qing Chang, Zhao Xiaoli, Kun Zhang · 2012

It should improve the forecasting accuracy in the study of precipitation prediction. It is difficultly to predict climate because of the dynamic characteristics of sample set as well as the effect of environmental factors. In order to improve the accuracy, a novel model based on time series and environmental factors was introduced in this paper. Firstly, the environmental factors were nonlinear screened by support vector machine (SVM). Secondly, estimated the order by controlled autoregressive (CAR). Lastly, reliability of SVM-CAR was validated by one-step prediction method. The simulation result of drought forecasting showed that this method has the advantages of high-precision and has a good prospect in drought and flood forecasting.
