Abstract

Rainfall prediction is one of the most important and challenging task in the modern world. In general, climate and rainfall are highly non-linear and complicated phenomena, which require advanced computer modeling and simulation for their accurate prediction. An Artificial Neural Network (ANN) can be used to predict the behavior of such nonlinear systems. ANN has been successfully used by most of the researchers in this field for the last twenty-five years. This paper provides a survey of available literature of some methodologies employed by different researchers to utilize ANN for rainfall prediction. The survey also reports that rainfall prediction using ANN technique is more suitable than traditional statistical and numerical methods.
