The method of construction of the combined model of forecast ing of time series based on basic models of forecasting is developed in the work. The set of basic models is dynamic, ie new prediction models can be included in this set. Models also can be deleted depending on the properties of the time series. For the synthesis of a combined model of forecasting time series with a given forecast step, the optimal step of prehistory is determined at the beginning. Next the functional is constructed. The optimal prehistory step is determined using the autoregression method for a fixed forecast step. It determines the period of time at which the accuracy of models from the base set is analyzed. For each basic model during the process of the construction of the combined model is determined by the weighting factor with which it will be included in the combined model. The weights of the basic models are determined based on their forecasting accuracy for the time period determined by the prehistory step. The weights reflect the degree of influence of the base models on the accuracy of the combined model forecasting. After construction of the combined model, its training is carried out and those basic models which will be included in the final combined model of forecasting are defined. The rule of inclusion of basic models in the combined model is established. While including basic models in the combined forecasting model, their weights are taken into account, which depends on the same parameter. The optimal value of the parameter is determined by minimizing the given functional, which sets the standard deviation between the actual and predicted values ​​of the time series. Weights with optimal parameters are ranked in decreasing order and are used to include basic models in the combined model. As a result of this approach, as predicted values for the real time series show, it was possible to significantly improve the forecasting accuracy of the combined model in many cases. The developed method of training provides the flexibility of the combined model and its application to a wide class of time series. The results obtained in this work contribute to solving the problem of choosing the most effective basic models by synthesizing them into one combined model.

Abstract The load of the showcase is a nonlinear and unstable time series data, and the traditional forecasting method is not applicable. Deep learning algorithms are introduced to predict the load of the showcase. Based on the CEEMD–IPSO–LSTM combination algorithm, this paper builds a refrigerated display cabinet load forecasting model. Compared with the forecast results of other models, it finally proves that the CEEMD–IPSO–LSTM model has the highest load forecasting accuracy, and the model’s determination coefficient is 0.9105, which is obviously excellent. Compared with other models, the model constructed in this paper can predict the load of showcases, which can provide a reference for energy saving and consumption reduction of display cabinet.

To improve customer service of power enterprises, this paper constructs an intelligent prediction model for customer complaints in the near future based on the big data on power service. Firstly, three customer complaint prediction models were established, separately based on autoregressive integrated moving average (ARIMA) time series algorithm, multiple linear regression (MLR) algorithm, and backpropagation neural network (BPNN) algorithm. The predicted values of the three models were compared with the real values. Through the comparison, the BPNN model was found to achieve the best predictive effect. To help the BPNN avoid local minimum, the genetic algorithm (GA) was introduced to optimize the BPNN model. Finally, several experiments were conducted to verify the effect of the optimized model. The results show that the relative error of the optimized model was less than 40% in most cases. The proposed model can greatly improve the customer service of power enterprises.

Time series data for decision problems such as energy demand forecasting are often derived from uncertain assessments, and do not meet any statistical assumptions. The interval grey number becomes an appropriate representation for an uncertain and imprecise observation. In order to obtain nonlinear interval grey numbers with better forecasting accuracy, this study proposes a combined model by fusing interval grey numbers estimated by neural networks (NNs) and the grey prediction models. The proposed model first uses interval regression analysis using NNs to estimate interval grey numbers for a real valued sequence; and then a grey residual modification model is constructed using the upper and lower wrapping sequences obtained by NNs. It turns out that two different kinds of interval grey numbers can be estimated by nonlinear interval regression analysis. Forecasting accuracy on real data sequences was then examined by the best non-fuzzy performance values of the combined model. The proposed combined model performed well compared with the other interval grey prediction models considered.

It is well known that coalmine gas concentration forecasting is very significant to ensure the safety of mining. Owing to the high-frequency, nonstationary fluctuations and chaotic properties of the gas concentration time series, a gas concentration forecasting model utilizing the original raw data often leads to an inability to provide satisfying forecast results. A hybrid forecasting model that integrates wavelet transform and extreme learning machine (ELM) termed as WELM (wavelet based ELM) for coalmine gas concentration is proposed. Firstly, the proposed model employs Mallat algorithm to decompose and reconstruct the gas concentration time series to isolate the low-frequency and high-frequency information. Then, ELM model is built for the prediction of each component. At last, these predicted values are superimposed to obtain the predicted values of the original sequence. This method makes an effective separation of the feature information of gas concentration time series and takes full advantage of multi-ELM prediction models with different parameters to achieve divide and rule. Comparative studies with existing prediction models indicate that the proposed model is very promising and can be implemented in one-step or multistep ahead prediction.

It is of great practical significance to fit and predict actual time series. Based on the theories of time series analysis and unconstrained optimization, a new spectral conjugate gradient method–autoregressive integrated moving average combined model (FHS spectral CG–ARIMA combined model) is proposed to fit and predict the actual time series. First, combining the characteristics and advantages of different CG methods, we propose Fang–Hestenes–Stiefel algorithm (FHS). FHS satisfies the automatic descent property and has global convergence under the reasonable assumptions and Wolfe search. Second, many numerical results have been given there: compared with other related algorithms, FHS algorithm has obvious advantages. Third, FHS spectral CG–ARIMA combined model is given in detail. Fourth, the combined model is applied to fit the actual time series and the fitting effect is found to be remarkable.

Field dilution studies were conducted on three “deep” water marine outfalls located along the South African coast to establish the comparibility of actual achievable initial dilutions against the theoretical predicted values and, where appropriate, to make recommendations regarding the applicability of the different prediction techniques in the design of future outfalls. The physical processes along the 3000 km long coastline of South Africa are diverse, ranging from dynamic sub-tropical waters on the east coast to cold, stratified stagnant conditions on the west coast. Fourteen existing offshore marine outfalls serve medium to large industries and various local authorities (domestic effluent). For this investigation three outfalls were selected to represent the range of outfall types as well as the diversity of the physical conditions of the South African coastline. The predicted dilutions, using various approaches, compared well with the measured dilutions. It was found that the application of more “simple” prediction techniques (using average current velocities and ambient densities) may be more practical, ensuring a conservative approach, in pre-feasibility studies, compared to the more detailed prediction models, which uses accurate field data (stratification and current profiles), when extensive field data is not readily available.

AbstractIn this study, we characterized the dynamics and analyzed the degree of synchronization of the time series of daily closing prices and volumes in US$ of three cryptocurrencies, Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Litecoin, over the period September 1,2015–March 31, 2020. Time series were first mapped into a complex network by the horizontal visibility algorithm in order to revel the structure of their temporal characters and dynamics. Then, the synchrony of the time series was investigated to determine the possibility that the cryptocurrencies under study co-bubble simultaneously. Findings reveal similar complex structures for the three virtual currencies in terms of number and internal composition of communities. To the aim of our analysis, such result proves that price and volume dynamics of the cryptocurrencies were characterized by cyclical patterns of similar wavelength and amplitude over the time period considered. Yet, the value of the slope parameter associated with the exponential distributions fitted to the data suggests a higher stability and predictability for Bitcoin and Litecoin than for Ethereum. The study of synchrony between the time series investigated displayed a different degree of synchronization between the three cryptocurrencies before and after a collapse event. These results could be of interest for investors who might prefer to switch from one cryptocurrency to another to exploit the potential opportunities of profit generated by the dynamics of price and volumes in the market of virtual currencies.
