Stochastic modeling is a key technique in event prediction and forecasting applications. Recently, stochastic models such as the Artificial Neural Network, Hidden Markov, and Markov Chain have received a significant attention in agricultural application. These techniques are capable of predicting the actions for the better planning and management in various fields. This work comprehensively summarizes and compares their applications such as their processing techniques, performance, as well as their strengths and limitations with regard to event prediction and forecasting. The work ends with recommendations on the appropriate techniques for cereal grain storage application.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
