Analysis of UV Radiation and its Relationship with Solar Indices Using Statistical and Artificial Neural Network Method
Journal Title: Universal Journal of Environmental Research and Technology - Year 2012, Vol 2, Issue 3
Abstract
Study analyses hourly average of daily UV radiation measured at Chennai in relationship with solar indices by multi linear regression analysis and Artificial Neural Network to forecast performance parameter namely Mean Bias Error and Mean Average Percentage error (MAPE). Moreover, study compares predicted UV radiation against measured value. It is concluded that ANN model prediction or estimation is better than the multiple regression model.
