Grey system theory has been widely applied to many domains such as economy, biology, agriculture, control and so on. Based on the theory of grey system, this paper established GM(1,1) grey predict modeI for the first time to forecast Chinese every hundred rural households owned computers and every hundred rural households owned mobile phone. The predicting results are almost close to the actual...

Associating the pattern in text data with the pattern with time series data is a novel task. In this paper, an approach that utilizes the features of the time series data and domain knowledge is proposed and used to identify the patterns for exchange rate modeling. A set of rules to identify the patterns are firstly specified using domain knowledge. The text data are then associated with the ex...

The concept of grey system theory, which has a certain prediction capability, offers an alternative approach for various kinds of conventional control methods, such as PID control and fuzzy control. For instance, grey PID type fuzzy controller designed in this paper, can predict the future output values of the system accurately. However, the forecasting step-size of the grey controller determin...
