The meteorology stations that were sampled for testing for prediction were Chiang Mai, Udon Thani, Bangkok, Ubon Ratchathama, Nakhon Ratchasima and Phuket, provinces from each region in Thailand. The approach involves a combination of data preprocessing, data classification and regression analysis. In the preprocessing step, this research used data with GFDL-R30 which was compared between logarithm transformations, square root transformations and no transformations. The results showed the correlation yield of both algorithms was less than no transformations but they can help for negative numbers in predicted data. In the classification step, it applied to the model for cutoff on days that had less rainfall and heavy rainfall. It was varied from 0 mm to 1.5 mm. The results showed the classification cannot increase strong correlation performance. The last section presents about post-processing comparison between multiple linear regressions and Gaussian process which is a non-linear regression. The result showed Gaussian process generally yielded better results both for correlation and RMSE for every station that was tested. Therefore, the Gaussian process is a suitable approach for predicting precipitation in the future without any preprocessing.x, 39 leaves : ill.application/pdfengผลงานนี้เป็นลิขสิทธิ์ของมหาวิทยาลัยมหิดล ขอสงวนไว้สำหรับเพื่อการศึกษาเท่านั้น ต้องอ้างอิงแหล่งที่มา ห้ามดัดแปลงเนื้อหา และห้ามนำไปใช้เพื่อการค้าRegression analysisPrecipitation forecastingNumerical weather forecastingGaussian processesMaster ThesisMahidol University
