Abstract
Projection Pursuit algorithms have been used extensively to reduce the dimensionality of large data sets finding interesting low-dimensional projections. We are utilizing a multivariate projection pursuit algorithm to And the variabilities to differentiate the tropical cyclones that complete and fail to complete the extratropical transition in the Western North Pacific. The NOGAPS 500-mb geopotential height analyses and 250-mb wind vorticity fields have been used in the system as two variables. It has been found that addition of the vorticity variable improved the forecasting performance of the system compared to the use of 500-mb heights alone.
