MEDEX: A Fuzzy System for Forecasting Mediterranean Gale Force Winds
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents an implementation of a fuzzy rule-based system for predicting the onset and cessation of seven gale-force winds in the Mediterranean region. The rules were compiled by several meteorological experts, and implemented using a commercial software package. Signiicant issues included the speciication of loosely deened variables, and the treatment of the system user's uncertainty and inexperience. Preliminary results show predicted wind onset and cessation likelihoods consistent with the experts' expectations and actual weather observations.

12b.3 Automating the Subjective Recognition of 500 Mb Wind Patterns as Input to a Meteorological Forecasting System
MEDEX is a fuzzy expert system for nowcasting gale-force winds in the Mediterranean. Kuciauskas et al. (1996) and Hadjimichael et al. (1996) have described, respectively, the general development and fuzzy aspects of MEDEX, which focuses on topographically-channeled winds that occur under certain synoptic conditions. As such, a key synoptic input to MEDEX is the 500 mb circulation pattern affect...
