Abstract
Climate change is destroying many crops around the world. This paper aims to anticipate maize yield levels based on climatic conditions, which would aid in making proper decisions regarding the connected sectors for business planning and yield level prediction. This paper presents two novel models that combine five machine learning algorithms with different techniques. Selecting six months of the climate features for the four regions in China. The first proposed model (FPM) consists of K Nearest Neighbors, Multinomial Naïve Bayes, Bernoulli Naïve Bayes, Decision Tree and Quadratic Discriminant Analysis (KMBDQ) that come together in a cascading topology (CT) to feed each other by taking the new prediction and removing the old previous prediction from the input features at each stage. The second proposed model (SPM) uses the same mentioned algorithms with different approaches. The prediction of each machine learning (ML) is used as a feeder to each other in the form of CT without removing any prediction. The performance evaluation of the proposed models was demonstrated and compared with many classifiers with the same dataset using accuracy, sensitivity, precision and F1 score. The results revealed that the SPM had the highest prediction accuracy of 79.6% with an increase of 29.6% compared to the first classifier in the model. It also had an improvement of 11.1% than the FPM and an increase of 10.2% compared to the best one among the many techniques used. Moreover, computation time comparisons are spotted.
