Why Develop ANSER ? - More than $3.5 billion in property is damaged and, more than 225 people are killed by heavy rain and flooding each year - No rainfall estimating system in GIS system, No real time and working system of rainfall estimation in the world - Can ANN be used in the weather forecasting area? If yes, how should we use ANN techniques in this area?
Why Use Neural Network Techniques ? - Two Directions of New generation computer Quamtun Computer Artificial Neural Network - Much quicker speed ? - Complicated pattern recognition? - Unknown rule knowledge base? - Self learning reasoning network? - Super position for multip choice?

Why Develop HONN ? • No system can automatically simulate discontinue, unsmooth data very well • No system can automatically find the perfect models for the discontinue, unsmooth data
CONCLUSION- What Approved • The results of the comparative experiments show that THONG system is able to simulate higher frequency and higher order non-linear data, as well as being able to simulate discontinuous data. • The THONG model can not only be used for financial simulation, but also for financial prediction. • Complicated pattern recognition: cloud merger
Conclusion- Next Step - Rebuild interface & retraining neural networks - New neural network models: more complicated pattern recognition • Financial data simulation experiments • Rainfall data simulation experiments
