Monthly rainfall prediction model of Peninsular Malaysia using clonal selection algorithm
description Nowadays, various algorithms inspired by natural processes have been extensively applied in solving engineering problems. This study proposed Artificial Immune Systems (AIS), a computational approach inspired by the processes of human immune system, as an algorithm to predict future rainfall. This proposed algorithm is another alternative technique as compared to the commonly used Statistical, Stochastic and Artificial Neural Network techniques traditionally use in Hydrology. Rainfall prediction is pertinent in order to solve many hydrological problems. The proposed Clonal Selection Algorithm (CSA) is one of the main algorithms in AIS, which inspired on Clonal selection theory in the immune system of human body that includes selection, hyper mutation, and receptor editing processes. This study proposed algorithm is utilised to predict future monthly rainfall in Peninsular Malaysia. The colle cted data includes rainfall and other four (4) meteorological parameters from year 1988 to 2017 at four selected meteorological stations.
