Abstract :
This paper presents a method based on RBF neural networks to predict the specific region cloud cover, which has the feature of time serial and nonlinear. Using this method, we can train the RBF neural networks and find out the nonlinear relations among historical cloud cover data, to predict future time of cloud cover. Experiment results show that the method provided a kind of viable intelligent way for the quantitative prediction of cloud cover.
