Kapılı tekrarlayan hücreler tabanlı bulanık zaman serileri tahminleme modeli

Time series forecasting and prediction are utilized in various industries, such as e-commerce, stock markets, wind power, and energy demand forecasting. An accurate forecast in these applications is an essential and challenging task because of the complexity and uncertainty of time series. Nowadays, deep learning methods are popular in time series forecasting and show better performance than classical methods. However, in the literature, only some studies use deep learning methods in fuzzy time series (FTS) forecasting. In this study, we propose a novel FTS forecasting model based upon the hybridization of Recurrent Neural Networks with FTS to deal with the complexity and uncertainty of these series. The proposed model utilizes Gated Recurrent Unit (GRU) to make predictions using a combination of membership values and past values from original time series data as model input and produce real forecast value. Moreover, the proposed model can handle first-order fuzzy relations and high-order ones. In experiments, we have compared our model results with state-of-art methods by using two real-world datasets; The Taiwan Stock Exchange Capitalization Weighted Stock Index (TAIEX) and Nikkei Stock Average. The results indicate that our model outperforms or performs similarly to other methods. The proposed model is validated using the Covid-19 active case dataset and BIST100 Index dataset and performs better than Long Short-term Memory (LSTM) networks.Zaman serisi tahminleme hava durumu, iş dünyası, satış verileri ve enerji tüketimi tahminleme gibi bir çok alanda uygulama alanına sahiptir. Bu alanlarda tahminleme yaparken kesin sonuçlar elde etmek çok önemlidir ama aynı zamanda zaman serilerinin karmaşık ve de belirsizlik içeren veriler olması nedeniyle çok zordur. Günümüzde, derin öğrenme metotları bu alanda klasik metotlara göre daha iyi sonuçlar vermektedir. Fakat literatürde bulanık zaman serileri tahminleme konusunda çok az çalışma vardır. Bu çalışmada, zaman serilerindeki karmaşıklığın ve belirsizliğin doğurduğu problemleri yok etmek için Yinelemeli sinir Ağları ile bulanık zaman serilerini bir arada kullanan bir model ortaya konumuştur. Bu çalışmada, Kapılı Tekrarlayan Hücreler kullanarak geçmiş veriler ile bulanık verilerin üyelik değerleri birleştirilerek tahminleme değeri hesaplanmıştır. Ayrıca, bu çalışmadaki model ilk seviye bulanık ilişkileri ele alabildiği gibi, çoklu seviye bulanık ilişkileri de kapsamaktadır. Testlerde literatürde var olan çalışmalar ilgili model ile iki açık veri seti ile karşılaştırılmış olup bahsi geçen modelin daha iyi veya benzer sonuçlar verdiği gözlemlenmiştir. Ayrıca model Covid-19 ve BIST100 borsa verileri kullanılarak da test edilmiş ve Uzun-Kısa Süreli Bellek modellerinden daha iyi sonuç vermiştir

Defining and applying prediction performance metrics on a recurrent NARX time series model.

International audienceNonlinear autoregressive moving average with exogenous inputs (NARMAX) models have been successfully demonstrated for modeling the input-output behavior of many complex systems. This paper deals with the proposition of a scheme to provide time series prediction. The approach is based on a recurrent NARX model obtained by linear combination of a recurrent neural network (RNN) output and the real data output. Some prediction metrics are also proposed to assess the quality of predictions. This metrics enable to compare different prediction schemes and provide an objective way to measure how changes in training or prediction model (Neural network architecture) affect the quality of predictions. Results show that the proposed NARX approach consistently outperforms the prediction obtained by the RNN neural network

A New Approach to Modeling Early Warning Systems for Currency Crises : can a machine-learning fuzzy expert system predict the currency crises effectively?

This paper presents a hybrid model for predicting the occurrence of currency crises by using the neuro fuzzy modeling approach. The model integrates the learning ability of neural network with the inference mechanism of fuzzy logic. The empirical results show that the proposed neuro fuzzy model leads to a better prediction of crisis. Significantly, the model can also construct a reliable causal relationship among the variables through the obtained knowledge base. Compared to the traditionally used techniques such as logit, the proposed model can thus lead to a somewhat more prescriptive modeling approach towards finding ways to prevent currency crises.

Impact of noise on a dynamical system: prediction and uncertainties from a swarm-optimized neural network

In this study, an artificial neural network (ANN) based on particle swarm optimization (PSO) was developed for the time series prediction. The hybrid ANN+PSO algorithm was applied on Mackey--Glass chaotic time series in the short-term $x(t+6)$. The performance prediction was evaluated and compared with another studies available in the literature. Also, we presented properties of the dynamical system via the study of chaotic behaviour obtained from the predicted time series. Next, the hybrid ANN+PSO algorithm was complemented with a Gaussian stochastic procedure (called {\it stochastic} hybrid ANN+PSO) in order to obtain a new estimator of the predictions, which also allowed us to compute uncertainties of predictions for noisy Mackey--Glass chaotic time series. Thus, we studied the impact of noise for several cases with a white noise level ($\sigma_{N}$) from 0.01 to 0.1.Comment: 11 pages, 8 figure

Forecasting Long-Term Government Bond Yields: An Application of Statistical and AI Models

This paper evaluates several artificial intelligence and classical algorithms on their ability of forecasting the monthly yield of the US 10-year Treasury bonds from a set of four economic indicators. Due to the complexity of the prediction problem, the task represents a challenging test for the algorithms under evaluation. At the same time, the study is of particular significance for the important and paradigmatic role played by the US market in the world economy. Four data-driven artificial intelligence approaches are considered, namely, a manually built fuzzy logic model, a machine learned fuzzy logic model, a self-organising map model and a multi-layer perceptron model. Their performance is compared with the performance of two classical approaches, namely, a statistical ARIMA model and an econometric error correction model. The algorithms are evaluated on a complete series of end-month US 10-year Treasury bonds yields and economic indicators from 1986:1 to 2004:12. In terms of prediction accuracy and reliability of the modelling procedure, the best results are obtained by the three parametric regression algorithms, namely the econometric, the statistical and the multi-layer perceptron model. Due to the sparseness of the learning data samples, the manual and the automatic fuzzy logic approaches fail to follow with adequate precision the range of variations of the US 10-year Treasury bonds. For similar reasons, the self-organising map model gives an unsatisfactory performance. Analysis of the results indicates that the econometric model has a slight edge over the statistical and the multi-layer perceptron models. This suggests that pure data-driven induction may not fully capture the complicated mechanisms ruling the changes in interest rates. Overall, the prediction accuracy of the best models is only marginally better than the prediction accuracy of a basic one-step lag predictor. This result highlights the difficulty of the modelling task and, in general, the difficulty of building reliable predictors for financial markets.interest rates; forecasting; neural networks; fuzzy logic.
