Wave forecasting in near real time basis by neural network
Abstract
In modern age, the human settlements and activities are very much increasing near the oceanfront. In order to cope up with the need such as construction of jetties, harbours, offshore berths, offshore platforms, navigation and recreation etc., forecasting of waves become an important aspect of marine environment. This paper presents application of the neural network (NN) with better update algorithms, namely rprop, quickprop and superSAB for wave forecasting. Measured waves off Marmagoa, Goa, India are used for this study. The forecasting of 3, 6 and 12 hourly wave heights are carried out using the NN model. Here the NN with rprop algorithm yields very good results.
