COMMENTS ON “Rainfall in Little Havana” by Roqué
نویسنده
چکیده
Roqué’s paper is a clear, clean and useful example of the use of Markov Chains in forecasting. It can be easily implemented with Cuban data, in the same manner Roqué has done in the Little Havana example. This work could even be broken down by provinces, or by geographical regions, and used in agriculture, construction and other outdoor activities that are substantially affected by rain, with obvious benefits for the Cuban economy.
