Aiming at the problem that the current classification algorithm has low generalization ability and insufficient precision, a combination classification model combining Adaboost algorithm and Back-Propagation (BP) neural network was proposed. Multiple neural network weak classifiers were constructed and weighted, which were linearly combined into a strong classifier. The improved Adaboost algorithm aimed to optimize the normalization factor. The sample weight update strategy was adjusted during the lifting process, to minimize the normalization factor, increasing the number of weak classifiers while reducing the error upper bound estimate was ensured, and the generalization ability and classification accuracy of the final integrated strong classifier was improved. A daily precipitation model of 6 sites in Jiangsu province was selected as the experimental data, and 7 precipitation models were established. Among the many factors influencing the rainfall, 12 attributes with large correlation with precipitation were selected as the forecasting factors. The results show that the improved Adaboost-BP combination model has better performance, especially for the site 58259, and the overall classification accuracy is 81%. Among the 7 grades, the prediction accuracy of class-0 rainfall is the best, and the accuracy of other types of rainfall forecast is improved. The theoretical derivation and experimental results show that the improvement can improve the prediction accuracy.
