In view of the characteristic that the traffic system is a dynamic and time-varying parameter system, the multi-level recursive forecasting method is proposed, and the multi-level recursive forecasting model of road accidents is established in this thesis. In this method, the forecasting of road accidents is divided into two parts: the forecasting of time-varying parameters and the future forec...

Abstract This paper contains a description, an alignment and joint approach for technology readiness development with three phases support of decision value analyses. The are separated into the forecasting, analysis quantification supporting technological concept formulation experimental testing, prototype qualification operation. Decision forecasting allows guidance by performance requirements...

the emergence of new general issues and their complexity, has created new areas of thought called good policymaking. in this study based on a mixed consecutive explorational research, and through the feasibility study of applications of good policy making in the executive branch and by using interviews with the cabinet ministers of 10th and 11th iranian governments, the facilitating inter-organ...

This work examines recent publications in forecasting in various fields, these include: wind power forecasting; electricity load forecasting; crude oil price forecasting; gold price forecasting energy price forecasting etc. In this review, categorization of the processes involve in forecasting are divided into four major steps namely: input features selection; data pre-processing; forecast mode...

Although over a thousand scientific papers address the topic of load forecasting every year, only a few are dedicated to finding a general framework for load forecasting that improves the performance, without depending on the unique characteristics of a certain task such as geographical location. Meta-learning, a powerful approach for algorithm selection has so far been demonstrated only on uni...

In recent years, many studies have been done on forecasting fuzzy time series. First-order fuzzy time series forecasting methods with first-order lagged variables and high-order fuzzy time series forecasting methods with consecutive lagged variables constitute the considerable part of these studies. However, these methods are not effective in forecasting fuzzy time series which contain seasonal...

Goebel et al. [4] presented a unified decomposition of ensemble loss for explaining ensemble performance. They considered democratic voting schemes with uniform weights, where the various base classifiers each can vote for a single class once only. In this article, we generalize their decomposition to cover weighted, probabilistic voting schemes and non-uniform (progressive) voting schemes. Emp...
