Description:
This paper presents a neural network model of simulating tides at multi-points considering tide-generating forces. A comparison on the root mean square and correlation coefficient of three-year mixed tides at a single point computed with harmonic method, response-orthotide method, the NAO.99b model and the proposed model was made to show the prediction accuracy of each method. The proposed model is examined efficient as the harmonic method to estimate the tides at a single point. Extended application of the proposed model to predicting tides at some points neighboring to an original interest point identifies accurately simulating multi-point tides as the NAO.99b numerical model.
