The nonlinearity and the chaotic fluctuations in the wind speed pattern are the reasons of inaccurate wind speed forecasting results using a linear autoregressive integrated moving average (ARIMA) model. The inaccurate forecasting of ARIMA model is a problem that reflects the uncertainty of modelling process. This study aims to improve the accuracy of wind speed forecasting by suggesting more appropriate approaches. An artificial neural network (ANN) and Kalman filter (KF) will be used to handle nonlinearity and uncertainty problems. Once ARIMA model was used only for determining the inputs structures of KF and ANN approaches, using an autoregressive (AR) Instead of ARIMA may be resulted in more simplicity and more accurate forecasting. ANN and KF based on the AR model are called hybrid AR-ANN model and hybrid AR-KF model, respectively. In this study, hybrid AR-ANN and hybrid AR-KF models are proposed to improve the wind speed forecasting. The performance of ARIMA, hybrid AR-ANN, and hybrid AR-KF models will be compared to determine which had the most accurate forecasts. A case study will be carried out that used daily wind speed data from Iraq and Malaysia. Hybrid AR-ANN and AR-KF models performed better than ARIMA model while the hybrid AR-KF model was the most adequate and provided the most accurate forecasts. In conclusion, the hybrid AR-KF model will result in better wind speed forecasting accuracy than other approaches, while the performances of both hybrid models will be provided acceptable forecasts compared to ARIMA model that will provide ineffectual wind speed forecasts.

ABSTRACT Government cash management refers to the strategies for managing government money to fulfil governments’ obligations effectively. Failure to manage cash effectively risks undermining the implementation of government policies. The Greek crisis in 2010 is an example of a government failing to manage resources effectively. Despite the importance of effective government cash management, the literature on effective cash forecasting, as one of effective government cash management’s pillars, in the public sector is scarce. This paper addresses this shortcoming by developing a government cash forecasting model with an accuracy that meets acceptable levels of materiality for the cash manager. Using Indonesian government expenditures data in a case study, we utilise Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average (ARIMA) and Artificial Neural Network (ANN) to build cash forecasting models. The results provide evidence that the ANN method is superior then the ARIMA model to build a government cash forecasting model. ABSTRAK Pengelolaan Kas Pemerintah mengacu pada serangkaian strategi yang dilakukan oleh pemerintah dalam mengelola uang pemerintah secara efektif dalam rangka memenuhi kewajiban pemerintah. Kegagalan dalam mengelola uang pemerintah secara efektif beresiko mengganggu pelaksanaan kebijakan pemerintah. Krisis yang dialami Yunani di tahun 2010 merupakan salah satu contoh dampak yang dapat ditimbulkan dari tidak berhasilnya suatu pemerintahan mengelola sumber daya keuangan yang mereka milik secara efektif. Terlepas dari pentingnya mengelola kas pemerintah secara efektif, literatur tentang bagaimana menyusun prakiraan kas yang efektif – sebagai salah satu pilar Pengelolaan Kas Pemerintah – bagi sektor publik masih langka. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengisi kesenjangan dalam literatur dengan memperkenalkan salah satu cara menyusun model prakiraan kas pemerintah dengan tingkat akurasi yang memenuhi harapan Pengelola Kas pemerintah. Dengan menggunakan data historis harian pengeluaran pemerintah Indonesia sebagai sebuah studi kasus, penelitian ini menggunakan Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average (ARIMA) dan Jaringan Syaraf Tiruan (JST) untuk menyusun model prakiraan kas. Penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa penggunaan metode Jaringan Syaraf Tiruan (JST) dapat menjadi alternatif dalam menyusun model prakiraan kas pemerintah dengan tingkat akurasi model prakiraan kas yang lebih tinggi dibandingkan menggunakan ARIMA model.

This study compares the accuracy of different forecasting techniques for gold and silver returns in a leading emerging economy. The study employs four forecasting models: autoregressive integrated moving average (ARIMA), artificial neural network (ANN), hybrid, and ensemble models. The study takes data of more than 7 years and forecasting is carried out for different forecast horizons varying from 1- to 20-steps ahead. The results reveal that ARIMA model is the best model to predict the gold returns, whereas, the ANN model along with the ensemble model are the best to predict the silver returns. The results also indicate that there exists nonlinear patterns in the time-series data of gold and silver returns. The study has significant implications for investors, academia, and policymakers.

Abstract Seawater intrusion is one of the most serious issues to threaten coastal aquifers. Tourian aquifer, which is selected as the case study, is located in Qeshm Island, Persian Gulf. In this study, first the vulnerability of the region to seawater intrusion is assessed using chloride ion concentration value, then by using the autoregressive integrated moving average (ARIMA) model, the vulnerability of the region is predicted for 14 wells in 2018. The results show that the Tourian aquifer experiences moderate vulnerability and the area affected by seawater intrusion is wide and is in danger of expanding. It is also found that 0.95 km2 of the region is in a state of high vulnerability with Cl concentration being in a dangerous condition. The prediction model shows that ARIMA (2,1,1) is the best model with mean absolute error of 13.3 mg/L and Nash–Sutcliffe value of 0.81. For fitted and predicted data, mean square error is evaluated as 235.3 and 264.3, respectively. The prediction results show that vulnerability is increasing through the years.

In this paper, time series prediction is considered as a problem of missing value. A model for the determination of the missing time series value is presented. The hybrid model integrating autoregressive intergrated moving average (ARIMA) and artificial neural network (ANN) model is developed to solve this problem. The developed models attempts to incorporate the linear characteristics of an ARIMA model and nonlinear patterns of ANN to create a hybrid model. In this study, time series modeling of rice yield data in Muda Irrigation area. Malaysia from 1995 to 2003 are considered. Experimental results with rice yields data sets indicate that the hybrid model improve the forecasting performance by either of the models used separately. Key words: ARIMA; Box and Jenkins; neural networks; rice yields; hybrid ANN model

The Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average model (ARIMA) is a popular time-series model used to predict future trends in economics, energy markets, and stock markets. It has not been widely applied to enrollment forecasting in higher education. The accuracy of the ARIMA model heavily relies on the length of time series. Researchers and practitioners often utilize the most recent - to -years of historical data to predict future enrollment; however, the accuracy of enrollment projection under different lengths of time series has never been investigated and compared. A simulation and an empirical study were conducted to thoroughly investigate the accuracy of ARIMA forecasting under four different lengths of time series. When the ARIMA model completely captured the historical changing trajectories, it provided the most accurate predictions of student enrollment with 20-years of historical data and had the lowest forecasting accuracy with the shortest time series. The results of this paper contribute as a reference to studies in the enrollment projection and time-series forecasting. It provides a practical impact on enrollment strategies, budges plans, and financial aid policies at colleges and institutions across countries.

The massive integration of wind power into the power system increasingly calls for better short-term wind speed forecasting which helps transmission system operators to balance the power systems with less reserve capacities. The  time series analysis methods are often used to analyze the  wind speed variability. The  time series are defined as a sequence of observations ordered in time. Statistical methods described in this paper are based on the prediction of future wind speed data depending on the historical observations. This allows us to find a sufficiently good model for the wind speed prediction. The paper addresses a short-term wind speed forecasting ARIMA (Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average) model. This method was applied for a number of different prediction problems, including the short term wind speed forecasts. It is seen as an early time series methodology with well-known limitations in wind speed forecasting, mainly because of insufficient accuracies of the hourly forecasts for the second half of the day-ahead forecasting period. The authors attempt to find the maximum effectiveness of the model aiming to find: (1) how the identification of the optimal model structure improves the forecasting results and (2) what accuracy increase can be gained by reidentification of the structure for a new wind weather season. Both historical and synthetic wind speed data representing the sample locality in the Baltic region were used to run the model. The model structure is defined by rows p, d, q and length of retrospective data period. The structure parameters p (Autoregressive component, AR) and q (Moving Average component, MA) were determined by the Partial Auto-Correlation Function (PACF) and Auto-Correlation Function (ACF), respectively. The model’s forecasting accuracy is based on the root mean square error (RMSE), mean absolute percentage error (MAPE) and mean absolute error (MAE). The results allowed to establish the optimal model structure and the length of the input/retrospective period. The  quantitative study revealed that identification of the  optimal model structure gives significant accuracy improvement against casual structures for 6–8 h forecast lead time, but a season-specific structure is not appropriate for the entire year period. Based on the conducted calculations, we propose to couple the ARIMA model with any more effective method into a hybrid model.

As one of the conventional statistical methods, the autoregressive integrated moving average (ARIMA) model has been one of the most widely used linear models in time series forecasting. However, the ARIMA model cannot easily capture the nonlinear patterns. Artificial neural network (ANN) can be utilized to construct more accurate forecasting model than ARIMA for nonlinear time series, but it is difficult to explain the meaning of the hidden layers of ANN and it does not produce a mathematical equation. In this study, by combining ARIMA with genetic programming (GP), a hybrid forecasting model will be used for elevator traffic flow time series which can improve the accuracy both the GP and the ARIMA forecasting models separately. At last, simulations are adopted to demonstrate the advantages of the proposed ARIMA-GP forecasting model.

The wind speed forecasting accuracy of artificial neural network(ANN) and grey model(GM) is poorly satisfied. Thus, we proposed a new variable weight combined (VWC) model, which was based on the ANN and GM, to improve the wind speed forecasting accuracy. VWC used weighting coefficient of different time to fit the two single models. The forecasting accuracy of VWC is higher than either of the two single models, and is also higher than the unchanged weight combination(UWC) model. Our data show a new method for wind speed forecasting and the reduction of auxiliary service costs of wind farms.
