Abstract

The Neyman-Scott Rectangular Pulse (NSRP) model is used to model the hourly rainfall series. This model uses a modest number of parameters to represent the rainfall processes and underlying physical phenomena such as the arrival of a storm or rain cells. In this paper, we proposed approximated likelihood function for the NSRP model and applied the proposed method to precipitation data in Seoul.

대표적인 강우생성 모형인 Neyman-Scott 구형펄스모형은 점과정(point process)을 이용하여 강우를 생성하는 모형으로 강우의 발생, 강우세포의 강우강도 그리고 지속시간의 분포로 표현된다. 특히 이 모형은 구형펄스모형(rectangular pulse model)에서 포함하지 않았던 강우사상의 군집특성을 반영하였다는 장점을 가지고 있다. NSRPM의 매개변수를 추정하는데 있어 moment를 이용한 여러가지 최적화 기법들이 연구되어 왔는데, 이러한 방법들은 목적함수를 추가하거나 조정하기 위해서는 복잡한 수식을 다시 계산하여야 하는 단점이 있으며, 전체적인 강우의 특성을 반영하기 어렵고 스케일에 따른 추정값의 변동도 크게 나타난다. 또한 moment를 이용한 추정값은 추정오차를 구할 수 없기 때문에 신뢰구간을 구할 수 없다는 단점이 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 누적강수량에 대한 근사적인 우도함수(approximated likelihood function)를 소개하고 이를 통해 NSRPM의 매개변수를 추정하고자 한다. 또한 분석에 사용되는 누적강수량의 시간 스케일에 따른 추정치의 변동성도 함께 알아보고자 한다.
