26 3.2.2 Autoregressive-moving average models y t = φ. 1 y t 1 + εt (3.1) ε t is from a white-noise (stochastic process) which is random and normally distributed, y t is data value in year t, y t 1 is the predictor series. φ 1 is the AR(1) coefficient. It is estimated by the following formula which includes lag 1 and lag 2 autocorrelation coefficients of the residuals for AR model. φ = 1 ρ1 ρ. ρ 1 ρ (3.2) This form is in the similar form of classical regression model in which y t is estimated by previous values and ε t is the regression residuals. Even the name autoregressive expresses the regression on self. Higher order AR models contain more lagged values inside the equation. Equations are right aligned and bold.

Minimization is performed by calculating the gradient for each node at the output layer ( y d ) δ i = dσ i. i i (3.4) dσ i is the derivative of the sigmoid function applied at y i which is defined for each Cluster analysis Cluster analysis (CA) is widely used to organize the observed data into meaningful structures and to find patterns. It has been widely used in atmospheric sciences. SAMPLE FIGURE dis tan ce Figure 3.3 : Single linkage distance.
