Application of Weighted Fuzzy Time Series Model to Forecast Epidemic Injuries

Using Wavelets and Splines to Forecast Non-Stationary Time Series

 This paper deals with a short term forecasting non-stationary time series using wavelets and splines. Wavelets can decompose the series as the sum of two low and high frequency components. Aminghafari and Poggi (2007) proposed to predict high frequency component by wavelets and extrapolate low frequency component by local polynomial fitting. We propose to forecast non-stationary process u...

A Comparison Between Time Series, Exponential Smoothing, and Neural Network Methods To Forecast GDP of Iran

Tourism Time Series Forecast

In this chapter four combinations of input features and the feedforward, cascade forward and recurrent architectures are compared for the task of forecast tourism time series. The input features of the ANNs consist in the combination of the previous 12 months, the index time modeled by two nodes used to the year and month and one input with the daily hours of sunshine (insolation duration). The...

Pattern recognition to forecast seismic time series

Earthquakes arrive without previous warning and can destroy a whole city in a few seconds, causing numerous deaths and economical losses. Nowadays, a great effort is being made to develop techniques that forecast these unpredictable natural disasters in order to take precautionary measures. In this paper, clustering techniques are used to obtain patterns which model the behavior of seismic temp...

An Application of Fuzzy Time Series to Improve ISE Forecasting

The problem of fuzzy time series forecasting plays an important role in many scientific areas such as statistics and neural networks. While forecasting fuzzy time series, most of forecasting applications use the same length of intervals. The determination of length of intervals is significant and critical in fuzzy time series forecasting. The usage of convenient performance measure may also hav...
