Abstract
To avoid property loss and reduce risk caused by typhoon surges, accurate prediction of surge deviation is an important task. Many conventional numerical methods and experimental methods for typhoon surge forecasting have been investigated, but it is still a complex ocean engineering problem. In this paper, support vector regression (SVR), an emerging artificial intelligence tool in forecasting storm surges is applied. The original data of Longdong station at Taiwan ‘invaded directly by the Aere typhoon’ are considered to verify the present model. Comparisons with the numerical methods and neural network indicate that storm surges and surge deviations can be efficiently predicted using SVR.
