Wind speed forecasting is an effective method to improve power stability of wind farm. Grey system theory have certain advantages in the study of poor information and uncertainty problems, it is suitable for the system with limited computing power and data storage capacity, such as wind turbine control system. In order to further improve the prediction accuracy of grey model, we combined GM (1, 1) model and BP neural network prediction model in this paper, and improved the combined model by background value optimizing and introducing genetic algorithm. Through analyzing the simulation results and comparing the forecasting results with the actual wind speed, it is clear that the improved combined prediction model is superior to pure grey forecasting model and it meets the needs of the wind power control.

Image filtering can change or enhance an image by emphasizing or removing certain features of the image. An image is a system in which some information is known and some information is unknown. Grey system theory is an important method for dealing with this kind of system, and grey correlation analysis and grey prediction modeling are important components of this method. In this paper, a fractional grey prediction model based on a filtering algorithm by combining a grey correlation model and a fractional prediction model is proposed. In this model, first, noise points are identified by comparing the grey correlation and the threshold value of each pixel in the filter window, and then, through the resolution coefficient of the important factor in image processing, a variety of grey correlation methods are compared. Second, the image noise points are used as the original sequence by the filter pane. The grey level of the middle point is predicted by the values of the surrounding pixel points combined with the fractional prediction model, replacing the original noise value to effectively eliminate the noise. Finally, an empirical analysis shows that the PSNR and MSE of the new model are approximately 27 and 140, respectively; these values are better than those of the comparison models and achieve good processing effects.

Abstract Background: The continuous increase in total health expenditure has become a social issue of common concern in most countries. In China, the total health expenditure still maintains a fast growth trend which is much higher than the growth of the country’s economy, although the new health system reform had been going on for 8 years until 2017. The aims of the current study were thus to investigate the main driving factors affecting total health expenditure and to establish a prediction model. Methods: Gray system theory was employed to explore the correlation degree between total health expenditure and 13 hot spots from the fields of economy, population, health service utilization, and public policy using national data in China from 2009 to 2017. Besides, a prediction model was established using the main driving factors among the 13 hot spots. Results: The main driving factors related to the changes of total health expenditure were public policy (ranked first), health development, economics, and aging, which correlation degrees were more than 0.7. The average error of the GM(1,7) model was 3.17%, the correlation degree, β , between the predicted simulation sequence and the original sequence was 0.78, the variance ratio, C, was 0.138, and the probability of residuals, P, was 1.0000. Therefore, the prediction model of total health expenditure with 6 main driving factors was excellent. Conclusion: The paper finds that since the new health system reform in China, government policies and social invest have contributed greatly to reducing the burden of health expenditure. However, the development of economic and the increase in the elderly population, which are main driving factors, will increase the total health expenditure, so improving the efficiency of investment and providing the precautionary health care and nursing for the elderly are crucial. Besides, the grey system theory had a good application in the field of health economics and policy.

Sheared edge quality of micro IT parts is an important standard to evaluate product quality. In this paper, a prediction model of sheared edge quality based on grey prediction is studied. By mapping the stroke and the burr width to be the time increment and the eigenvalue of grey system, the grey prediction model was established. The dynamic regularity of burr in actual production was attained from the precision blanking experiment and the prediction of burr width was performed. The results show that the model can predict burr width accurately and needs less sampling data. Thus, it is fit for the requirement of manufacturing.

Abstract The GM(1,N) model is a very important prediction model of the grey system. But the inherent defect of GM(1,N), which may cause very large error, is still there. This paper analyzes the source of the error of GM(1,N) and reveals that it’s all the back ground values that effect the precision and applicability of GM(1,N). Three methods are employed to revise the GM(1,N) model. The simulation test shows the new models perform with higher precision and robustness. Even in some extreme cases, in which the original GM(1,N) is invalid, the new models are still valid and perform well.

In order to solve the problem of duration predicting in the project with poor information, small sample and uncertainty, a method based on grey system theory is put forward to predicting the duration of the coupled task set. A grey duration prediction model GM(1,1) is built, and the accuracy of the model is tested through residual, degree of incidence and posterior variance. Finally, the feasibility of the prediction model is verified by a practical application case.
