Abstract
The neural network technique is used to analyze the time series of solar activity, as measured through the relative Wolf number. Firstly, the embedding dimension of the time-series c haracteristic attractor is obtained. Secondly, after describing the de sign and training of the net, the performance o f t he p resent approach in forecasting yearly mean sunspot numbers is favorably c ompared to that of conventional statistical methods. Finally, predictions for the remaining part of the 22th and the whole 23th cycle are presented.Keywords
