In this paper the water quality forecasting at the Nanjinguan water quality monitoring station of Yangtze River, China, is presented. The time series data used are weekly water quality data obtained directly from Nanjinguan station measurements over the course of five years. In order to forecast water quality, hybrid models consisting of Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average (ARIMA) models a...

A multiple linear regression and ARIMA hybrid model is proposed for new bug prediction depending upon resolved bugs and other available parameters of the open source software bug report. Analysis of last five year bug report data of a open source software “worldcontrol” is done to identify the trends followed by various parameters. Bug report data has been categorized on monthly basis and forec...

To scientifically predict the future energy demand of Shandong province, this study chose the past energy demand of Shandong province during 1995–2015 as the research object. Based on building model data sequences, the GM-ARIMA model, the GM (1,1) model, and the ARIMA model were used to predict the energy demand of Shandong province for the 2005–2015 data, the results of which were then compare...

In this work, the seasonality and performance loss rates of eleven grid-connected photovoltaic (PV) systems of different technologies were evaluated through seasonal adjustment. The classical seasonal decomposition (CSD) and X-12-ARIMA statistical techniques were applied on monthly DC performance ratio, RP, time series, constructed from field measurements over the systems' first five years of o...

Two widely-used seasonal adjustment programs are the U.S. Census Bureau's X-12-ARIMA and the SEATS program for ARIMA-model-based signal extraction written by Agustin Maravall. In previous studies with SEATS and X-12-ARIMA, we found some series where the adjustment from SEATS had smaller revisions than the adjustment from X-12-ARIMA (Hood, Ashley, and Findley, 2000). Based on this previous work,...

The autoregressive integrated moving average (ARIMA), which is a conventional statistical method, is employed in many fields to construct models for forecasting time series. Although ARIMA can be adopte...

In business, industry and government agencies, anticipating future behavior that involves many critical variables for nation wealth creation is vitally important, thus the necessity to make precise decision by the policy makers is really essential. Consequently, an accurate and reliable forecast system is needed to compose such predictions. Accordingly, the aim of this research is to develop a ...

BACKGROUND Sporadic hepatitis E has become an important public health concern in China. Accurate forecasting of the incidence of hepatitis E is needed to better plan future medical needs. Few mathematical models can be used because hepatitis E morbidity data has both linear and nonlinear patterns. We developed a combined mathematical model using an autoregressive integrated moving average model...

Forecasting time series data is an important subject in economics, business, and finance. Traditionally, there are several techniques to effectively forecast the next lag of time series data such as univariate Autoregressive (AR), univariate Moving Average (MA), Simple Exponential Smoothing (SES), and more notably Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average (ARIMA) with its many variations. In par...

Now-a-days, different sectors of the economy are being significantly affected by the electricity variable. In this research, we analyzed the monthly electricity consumption in Pakistan for the period of January 1990 through December 2011, using linear and non linear modeling techniques. They include ARIMA, Seasonal ARIMA (SARIMA) and ARCH/GARCH models. Electricity consumption model reveals a si...
