Abstract

Climate change issues are continuously on the rise and the need to build models and software systems for management of natural disasters such as cyclones is increasing. Cyclone wind-intensity prediction looks into efficient models to forecast the wind-intensification in tropical cyclones which can be used as a means of taking precautionary measures. If the wind-intensity is determined with high precision a few hours prior, evacuation and further precautionary measures can take place. Neural networks have become popular as efficient tools for forecasting. Recent work in neuro-evolution of Elman recurrent neural network showed promising performance for benchmark problems. This paper employs Cooperative Coevolution method for training Elman recurrent neural networks for Cyclone wind- intensity prediction in the South Pacific region. The results show very promising performance in terms of prediction using different parameters in time series data reconstruction.
