Abstract
Wind speed prediction using machine learning algorithms is crucial for various applications, such as wind energy planning and urban development. This paper presents a case study on wind speed prediction in Jerusalem using the Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) and K-Nearest Neighbors Regression (KNNR) algorithms. The study evaluates their performance using multiple metrics, including root mean square (RMSE), bias, and coefficient of determination R2. ANFIS demonstrates good accuracy with lower RMSE (0.196) and minimal bias (0.0003). However, there is room for improvement in capturing overall variability (R2 = 0.15). In contrast, KNNR exhibits a higher R2 (0.4093), indicating a better fit, but with a higher RMSE (1.4209). This study provides insights into the applicability of ANFIS and KNNR in wind speed prediction for Jerusalem and suggests future research directions. The outcomes have practical implications for wind energy planning, urban development, and environmental assessments in similar regions.
