  The project presents a typhoon wave model using neural network and fuzzy theory. Input winds obtained by popular Holland typhoon wind model are used in the present wave model. Fast and accurate calculation on typhoon waves by the present model provides good information for a coastal warning system to prevent or decrease from possible life loss and property damage. We assemble wave data at Hwa-lien Harbor, Su-Au Harbor and Kee-lung Harbor. The wind data are classified into some groups by paths, scales, and land effect. An auto-adapting connection between typhoon waves and corresponding wind data is established by using neural network. The proposed model is useful in calculating typhoon waves in both learning stage and verification stage. The outcomes indicate that the wave model can be applied to future practical calculation. We extend the proposed model to a neighboring point and find that the model also provides good calculation on waves at that point, even used the ready wave model established for other point. The present model can be applied to the eastern waters of Taiwan.
