Artificial neural networks (the multilayer perceptron)—a review of applications in the atmospheric sciences

Artificial neural networks are appearing as useful alternatives to traditional statistical modelling techniques in many scientific disciplines. This paper presents a general introduction and discussion of recent applications of the multilayer perceptron, one type of artificial neural network, in the atmospheric sciences.
