Using Artificial Neural Networks for Timeseries Smoothing and Forecasting: Case Studies in Economics (Studies in Computational Intelligence, 979): summary, description and annotation

We offer to read an annotation, description, summary or preface (depends on what the author of the book "Using Artificial Neural Networks for Timeseries Smoothing and Forecasting: Case Studies in Economics (Studies in Computational Intelligence, 979)" wrote himself). If you haven't found the necessary information about the book — write in the comments, we will try to find it.

The aim of this publication is to identify and apply suitable methods for analysing and predicting the time series of gold prices, together with acquainting the reader with the history and characteristics of the methods and with the time series issues in general. Both statistical and econometric methods, and especially artificial intelligence methods, are used in the case studies. The publication presents both traditional and innovative methods on the theoretical level, always accompanied by a case study, i.e. their specific use in practice. Furthermore, a comprehensive comparative analysis of the individual methods is provided. The book is intended for readers from the ranks of academic staff, students of universities of economics, but also the scientists and practitioners dealing with the time series prediction. From the point of view of practical application, it could provide useful information for speculators and traders on financial markets, especially the commodity markets.

The series Studies in Computational Intelligence (SCI) publishes new developments and advances in the various areas of computational intelligencequickly and with a high quality. The intent is to cover the theory, applications, and design methods of computational intelligence, as embedded in the fields of engineering, computer science, physics and life sciences, as well as the methodologies behind them. The series contains monographs, lecture notes and edited volumes in computational intelligence spanning the areas of neural networks, connectionist systems, genetic algorithms, evolutionary computation, artificial intelligence, cellular automata, self-organizing systems, soft computing, fuzzy systems, and hybrid intelligent systems. Of particular value to both the contributors and the readership are the short publication timeframe and the world-wide distribution, which enable both wide and rapid dissemination of research output.

Indexed by SCOPUS, DBLP, WTI Frankfurt eG, zbMATH, SCImago.

All books published in the series are submitted for consideration in Web of Science.

Introduction

The majority of collected data show a certain time structure. In some cases, this structure is hidden; however, there are methods to extract relevant information from the available data using this time structure. The knowledge of time series modelling is a basic skill in the field of data science, since there as specific structures for this data type which can be examined in all situations. Time series enables the analysis of the main patterns, such as trends, seasonality, cyclicality, or data irregularities. Time series analysis is applied, e.g. for analysis of stock markets, recognition of patterns, earthquake prediction, economic predictions, census, etc. Time series forecasts use historical empirical regularities for creating future projections, which are guided by theoretical understanding of economic processes. Economic forecasts are used for a wide range of activities, including setting monetary and fiscal policy, state and local budget, financial management and financial engineering. The key elements of economic forecasts include selecting the model(s) of predictions suitable for a given problem, assessment and communicating the uncertainty related to forecasts and protection against the model instability. For example, in the case of investments, time series follows the movement of selected data points, such as security price, for a specified period of time, where the data points are recorded at regular intervals. There is no minimum or maximum period, which enables the collection of the data in a way that provides the information required by an investor or analyst that analyses the activity. Time series analysis can be useful to determine how a given asset, security or economic variable changes over time. The method of predicting time series is the most reliable in the case that the data represent a longer period of time. The information about the conditions can be obtained by measuring the data at various time intervalshourly, daily, monthly, quarterly, yearly, or at any other time interval. Predictions are most accurate if they are based on a large number of observations for a longer period of time so that it is possible to measure the patterns in given conditions. The main advantages of time series analysis include the fact that there are certain functions that cannot be captured by means of normal regression models, while the methods connected with time series can. Furthermore, there can be mentioned certain dependencies that cannot be captured by means of conventional models, especially factors such as seasonality, where the effects of trends cannot be fully explained by means of models such as linear regression, but by means of time series models. This shows that time series is useful if we try to capture aspects that usually change over time. For example, data on prices at the end of the day are very difficult to model if only regression models are used; however, time series uses a wide range of models which were proved to capture such complex phenomena as the dependence between random variables, also known as serial correlation. The most important advantage of time series consists in its ability to predict the future value of data. There are various methods to obtain prediction. There can be used, e.g. regression models, models based on the decomposition of time series, models of so-called smoothing by means of function or models based on neural networks (machine learning).

Before examining the methods of machine learning for time series, it is recommended to make sure that conventional methods of predicting linear time series cannot be used. Such models can be focussed on linear relationships; however, they are sophisticated and work well in a wide range of problems, provided that the data are prepared properly and the method is well-configured. From the conventional methods, there should be mentioned, e.g. autoregressive model (AR), moving average (MA), autoregressive moving average (ARMA), ARIMA, seasonal autoregressive integrated moving average (SARIMA), seasonal autoregressive integrated moving average with exogenous regressors (SARIMAX), vector autoregression (VAR), vector autoregressive moving average (VARMA), vector autoregressive moving average with exogenous regressors (VARMAX), simple exponential smoothing (SES), or holt winter exponential smoothing (HWES). Time series predictions have been dominated by linear methods for decades. Linear methods show an easy development and implementation and are relatively easy to understand and interpret. However, it is important to understand the limitations of linear models; they are not able to capture nonlinear relationships in data. Nevertheless, neural networks have recently appeared to be an alternative tool for predicting. The naturally nonlinear structure of neural networks is particularly useful to capture a complex basic relationship in many real-world problems. Neural networks are perhaps more versatile methods for predicting, as they are able to find nonlinear structures in a problem but can also model linear processes.
