Rain is one of the 4 weather conditions on earth. The rain itself is sometimes erratic. For some people, rain is sometimes seen as an obstacle in carrying out their daily activities. Therefore, predictions about rain are needed. Predictions about rain really help people in carrying out their daily activities. The research aims to compare the predictive performance of SVM and ARIMA in forecasting rain. The data used in this case study research is data regarding daily weather for 10 years in the Albury area, Australia from 2008-2017 with a lot of 3040 data. The results obtained from SVM for forecasting rain using daily weather data for 10 years in the Albury area, Australia with the best accuracy rate with the SVM model is 97.532% with an error rate of 2.468%, while in the ARIMA model, the results are MAE 0.181, RMSE 0.254 and MAPE 0.159. So it can be concluded that the ARIMA model has a better performance in predicting rain than the SVM method.
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.
