A Singular Spectrum Analysis Technique to Electricity Consumption Forecasting

Singular Spectrum Analysis (SSA) is a relatively new and powerful nonparametric tool for analyzing and forecasting economic data. SSA is capable of decomposing the main time series into independent components like trends, oscillatory manner and noise. This paper focuses on employing the performance of SSA approach to the monthly electricity consumption of the Middle Province in Gaza Strip\Palestine. The forecasting results are compared with the results of exponential smoothing state space (ETS) and ARIMA models. The three techniques do similarly well in forecasting process. However, SSA outperforms the ETS and ARIMA techniques according to forecasting error accuracy measures

Hybrid SSA-TBATS to improve forecasting accuracy on export value data in Indonesia

This research aims to present the Hybrid SSA-TBATS approach as an alternate forecasting technique that does not need specific assumptions or requirements such as stationarity, linear or nonlinear process, and normality. This analysis used Indonesian exports (in millions of USD) from January 1993 to July 2022. The findings of this research reveal that the Hybrid SSA-TBATS method outperforms SSA and TBATS in forecasting accuracy and defines the window length and number of groups. Therefore, it is highly recommended based on MAPE since it does not need any information on the characteristics of the data to be forecasted
