While some sectors recorded positive performances, some recorded negative performances, and these unstable economic performances led to technical recession for the third and fourth quarters of the year 2023. This study assessed the efficacy of the Generalised Additive Model for Location, Scale and Shape (GAMLSS) as a flexible distributional regression with smoothing additive terms in forecasting the UK economic growth in-sample and out-of-sample over the conventional Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) and Error Correction Model (ECM). The aim was to investigate the effectiveness and efficiency of GAMLSS models using a machine learning framework over the conventional time series econometric models by a rolling window. It is quantitative research which adopts a dataset obtained from the Office for National Statistics, covering 105 monthly observations of major economic indicators in the UK from January 2015 to September 2023. It consists of eleven variables, which include economic growth (Econ), consumer price index (CPI), inflation (Infl), manufacturing (Manuf), electricity and gas (ElGas), construction (Const), industries (Ind), wholesale and retail (WRet), real estate (REst), education (Edu) and health (Health). All computations and graphics in this study are obtained using R software version 4.4.1. The study revealed that GAMLSS models demonstrate superior outperformance in forecast accuracy over the ARDL and ECM models. Unlike other models used in the literature, the GAMLSS models were able to forecast both the future economic growth and the future distribution of the growth, thereby contributing to the empirical literature. The study identified manufacturing, electricity and gas, construction, industries, wholesale and retail, real estate, education, and health as key drivers of UK economic growth.展开更多

This study focuses on forecasting patient health data by comparing the performance of traditional linear time series models, namely Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average (ARIMA), Seasonal ARIMA, and Moving Average (MA) against neural network architectures. The primary goal is to evaluate the effectiveness of these models in predicting healthcare outcomes using patient records, specifically the Cancerpatient.xlsx dataset, which tracks variables such as patient age, symptoms, genetic risk factors, and environmental exposures over time. The proposed strategy involves training each model on historical patient data to predict age progression and other related health indicators, with performance evaluated using Mean Squared Error (MSE) and Root Mean Squared Error (RMSE) metrics. Our findings reveal that neural networks consistently outperform ARIMA and SARIMA by capturing non-linear patterns and complex temporal dependencies within the dataset, resulting in lower forecasting errors. This research highlights the potential of neural networks to enhance predictive accuracy in healthcare applications, supporting better resource allocation, patient monitoring, and long-term health outcome predictions.展开更多

The question of how much energy will be needed in households is a pressing issue as it allows the management plan of the available resources at the power grids and consumer levels. A non-intrusive inference process can be adopted to predict the amount of energy required by appliances. In this study, an inference process of appliance consumption based on temporal and environmental factors used as a soft sensor is proposed. First, a study of the correlation between the electrical and environmental variables is presented. Then, a resampling process is applied to the initial data set to generate three other subsets of data. All the subsets were evaluated to deduce the adequate granularity for the prediction of the energy demand. Then, a cloud-assisted deep neural network model is designed to forecast short-term energy consumption in a residential area while preserving user privacy. The solution is applied to the consumption data of four appliances elected from a set of real household power data. The experiment results show that the proposed framework is effective for estimating consumption with convincing accuracy.展开更多

文摘A remarkable marine heatwave,known as the“Blob”,occurred in the Northeast Pacific Ocean from late 2013 to early 2016,which displayed strong warm anomalies extending from the surface to a depth of 300 m.This study employed two assimilation schemes based on the global Climate Forecast System of Nanjing University of Information Science(NUIST-CFS 1.0)to investigate the impact of ocean data assimilation on the seasonal prediction of this extreme marine heatwave.The sea surface temperature(SST)nudging scheme assimilates SST only,while the deterministic ensemble Kalman filter(EnKF)scheme assimilates observations from the surface to the deep ocean.The latter notably improves the forecasting skill for subsurface temperature anomalies,especially at the depth of 100-300 m(the lower layer),outperforming the SST nudging scheme.It excels in predicting both horizontal and vertical heat transport in the lower layer,contributing to improved forecasts of the lower-layer warming during the Blob.These improvements stem from the assimilation of subsurface observational data,which are important in predicting the upper-ocean conditions.The results suggest that assimilating ocean data with the EnKF scheme significantly enhances the accuracy in predicting subsurface temperature anomalies during the Blob and offers better understanding of its underlying mechanisms.
文摘The UK’s economic growth has witnessed instability over these years. While some sectors recorded positive performances, some recorded negative performances, and these unstable economic performances led to technical recession for the third and fourth quarters of the year 2023.

The aim was to investigate the effectiveness and efficiency of GAMLSS models using a machine learning framework over the conventional time series econometric models by a rolling window. It is quantitative research which adopts a dataset obtained from the Office for National Statistics, covering 105 monthly observations of major economic indicators in the UK from January 2015 to September 2023.

All computations and graphics in this study are obtained using R software version 4.4.1. The study revealed that GAMLSS models demonstrate superior outperformance in forecast accuracy over the ARDL and ECM models. Unlike other models used in the literature, the GAMLSS models were able to forecast both the future economic growth and the future distribution of the growth, thereby contributing to the empirical literature. The study identified manufacturing, electricity and gas, construction, industries, wholesale and retail, real estate, education, and health as key drivers of UK economic growth.
文摘Time series forecasting is essential for generating predictive insights across various domains, including healthcare, finance, and energy. This study focuses on forecasting patient health data by comparing the performance of traditional linear time series models, namely Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average (ARIMA), Seasonal ARIMA, and Moving Average (MA) against neural network architectures. The primary goal is to evaluate the effectiveness of these models in predicting healthcare outcomes using patient records, specifically the Cancerpatient.xlsx dataset, which tracks variables such as patient age, symptoms, genetic risk factors, and environmental exposures over time. The proposed strategy involves training each model on historical patient data to predict age progression and other related health indicators, with performance evaluated using Mean Squared Error (MSE) and Root Mean Squared Error (RMSE) metrics. Our findings reveal that neural networks consistently outperform ARIMA and SARIMA by capturing non-linear patterns and complex temporal dependencies within the dataset, resulting in lower forecasting errors.

文摘It is fundamental and useful to investigate how deep learning forecasting models(DLMs)perform compared to operational oceanography forecast systems(OFSs).However,few studies have intercompared their performances using an identical reference.In this study,three physically reasonable DLMs are implemented for the forecasting of the sea surface temperature(SST),sea level anomaly(SLA),and sea surface velocity in the South China Sea.The DLMs are validated against both the testing dataset and the“OceanPredict”Class 4 dataset.Results show that the DLMs'RMSEs against the latter increase by 44%,245%,302%,and 109%for SST,SLA,current speed,and direction,respectively,compared to those against the former.Therefore,different references have significant influences on the validation,and it is necessary to use an identical and independent reference to intercompare the DLMs and OFSs.Against the Class 4 dataset,the DLMs present significantly better performance for SLA than the OFSs,and slightly better performances for other variables.The error patterns of the DLMs and OFSs show a high degree of similarity,which is reasonable from the viewpoint of predictability,facilitating further applications of the DLMs.For extreme events,the DLMs and OFSs both present large but similar forecast errors for SLA and current speed,while the DLMs are likely to give larger errors for SST and current direction.This study provides an evaluation of the forecast skills of commonly used DLMs and provides an example to objectively intercompare different DLMs.
文摘Load forecasting is of great significance to the development of new power systems.With the advancement of smart grids,the integration and distribution of distributed renewable energy sources and power electronics devices have made power load data increasingly complex and volatile.This places higher demands on the prediction and analysis of power loads.In order to improve the prediction accuracy of short-term power load,a CNN-BiLSTMTPA short-term power prediction model based on the Improved Whale Optimization Algorithm(IWOA)with mixed strategies was proposed.Firstly,the model combined the Convolutional Neural Network(CNN)with the Bidirectional Long Short-Term Memory Network(BiLSTM)to fully extract the spatio-temporal characteristics of the load data itself.Then,the Temporal Pattern Attention(TPA)mechanism was introduced into the CNN-BiLSTM model to automatically assign corresponding weights to the hidden states of the BiLSTM.This allowed the model to differentiate the importance of load sequences at different time intervals.At the same time,in order to solve the problem of the difficulties of selecting the parameters of the temporal model,and the poor global search ability of the whale algorithm,which is easy to fall into the local optimization,the whale algorithm(IWOA)was optimized by using the hybrid strategy of Tent chaos mapping and Levy flight strategy,so as to better search the parameters of the model.In this experiment,the real load data of a region in Zhejiang was taken as an example to analyze,and the prediction accuracy(R2)of the proposed method reached 98.83%.Compared with the prediction models such as BP,WOA-CNN-BiLSTM,SSA-CNN-BiLSTM,CNN-BiGRU-Attention,etc.,the experimental results showed that the model proposed in this study has a higher prediction accuracy.

文摘Weather forecasts from numerical weather prediction models play a central role in solar energy forecasting,where a cascade of physics-based models is used in a model chain approach to convert forecasts of solar irradiance to solar power production.Ensemble simulations from such weather models aim to quantify uncertainty in the future development of the weather,and can be used to propagate this uncertainty through the model chain to generate probabilistic solar energy predictions.However,ensemble prediction systems are known to exhibit systematic errors,and thus require post-processing to obtain accurate and reliable probabilistic forecasts.The overarching aim of our study is to systematically evaluate different strategies to apply post-processing in model chain approaches with a specific focus on solar energy:not applying any post-processing at all;post-processing only the irradiance predictions before the conversion;post-processing only the solar power predictions obtained from the model chain;or applying post-processing in both steps.In a case study based on a benchmark dataset for the Jacumba solar plant in the U.S.,we develop statistical and machine learning methods for postprocessing ensemble predictions of global horizontal irradiance(GHI)and solar power generation.Further,we propose a neural-network-based model for direct solar power forecasting that bypasses the model chain.Our results indicate that postprocessing substantially improves the solar power generation forecasts,in particular when post-processing is applied to the power predictions.The machine learning methods for post-processing slightly outperform the statistical methods,and the direct forecasting approach performs comparably to the post-processing strategies.

文摘The 2016–2022 monitoring data from three ecological buoys in the Wenzhou coastal region of Zhejiang Province and the dataset European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts were examined to clarify the elaborate relationship between variations in ecological parameters during spring algal bloom incidents and the associated changes in temperature and wind fields in this study.A long short-term memory recurrent neural network was employed,and a predictive model for spring algal bloom in this region was developed.This model integrated various inputs,including temperature,wind speed,and other pertinent variables,and chlorophyll concentration served as the primary output indicator.The model training used chlorophyll concentration data,which were supplemented by reanalysis and forecast temperature and wind field data.The model demonstrated proficiency in forecasting next-day chlorophyll concentrations and assessing the likelihood of spring algal bloom occurrences using a defined chlorophyll concentration threshold.The historical validation from 2016 to 2019 corroborated the model's accuracy with an 81.71%probability of correct prediction,which was further proven by its precise prediction of two spring algal bloom incidents in late April 2023 and early May 2023.An interpretable machine learning-based model for spring algal bloom prediction,displaying effective forecasting with limited data,was established through the detailed analysis of the spring algal bloom mechanism and the careful selection of input variables.The insights gained from this study offer valuable contributions to the development of early warning systems for spring algal bloom in the Wenzhou coastal area of Zhejiang Province.

文摘Grid forecasting can be used to effectively enhance the spatial and temporal density of forecast products,thereby improving the capability of short-term marine disaster forecasting and warnings in terms of proximity.The traditional method that relies on forecasters'subjective correction of station observation data for forecasting has been unable to meet the practical needs of refined forecasting.To address this problem,this paper proposes a Transformer-enhanced UNet(TransUNet)model for wave forecast AI correction,which fuses wind and wave information.The Transformer structure is integrated into the encoder of the UNet model,and instead of using the traditional upsampling method,the dual-sampling module is employed in the decoder to enhance the feature extraction capability.This paper compares the TransUNet model with the traditional UNet model using wind speed forecast data,wave height forecast data,and significant wave height reanalysis data provided by ECMWF.The experimental results indicate that the TransUNet model yields smaller root-meansquare errors,mean errors,and standard deviations of the corrected results for the next 24-h forecasts than does the UNet model.Specifically,the root-mean-square error decreased by more than 21.55%compared to its precorrection value.According to the statistical analysis,87.81%of the corrected wave height errors for the next 24-h forecast were within±0.2m,with only 4.56%falling beyond±0.3 m.This model effectively limits the error range and enhances the ability to forecast wave heights.
文摘Objectives:This study aimed to assess the equity of nursing human resource allocation in Jiangxi Province,China,and forecast future trends in the next five years.Methods:We used the related data from the China Statistical Yearbook,China Health Statistics Yearbook,and Jiangxi Statistical Yearbook(2003-2022).The equity of nursing human resource allocation was evaluated using Lorenz curves,Gini coefficients,and Theil index,from the perspective of population and geographical area.Demands for nursing human resource in Jiangxi Province from 2023 to 2027 were forecasted using the Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average(ARIMA)and Grey(1,1)models.Results:From 2003 to 2022,all the key nursing human resource indicators continuously increased;the number of registered nurses in Jiangxi Province increased by 109,786,with an average annual growth rate of 7.80%.Registered nurses per 1,000 population rose by 2.21,while nurses per square kilometer increased by 0.66.Jiangxi Province has surpassed the national level in several nursing resource indicators,including registered nurses as a percentage of health technicians,registered nurses per square kilometer,and doctor-to-nurse ratio.Within the province,all indicators in cities are higher than those in county-level regions.Among the cities in Jiangxi Province,Ganzhou City had the highest number of registered nurses,Xinyu City led in the doctor-to-nurse ratio,and Nanchang City had the highest bed-tonurse ratio.In 2022,the Gini coefficients for registered nurses in Jiangxi Province were 0.09 by population and 0.34 by geographical area,reflecting the allocation of registered nurses in Jiangxi Province is highly equitable by population but relatively equitable by geographical area.Forecasting results suggested that the number of registered nurses in Jiangxi Province will reach 170,100 by 2027,indicating continued growth and improvement in nursing resource allocation.Conclusions:Over the past two decades,the human nursing resources in Jiangxi Province have grown substantially.The absolute fairness of nurse human resources allocation by population highlights significant progress,although regional disparities persist.These findings provide a foundation for optimizing future nursing resource allocation to ensure equitable access to healthcare services.
文摘Time series forecasting is important in the fields of finance,energy,and meteorology,but traditional methods often fail to cope with the complex nonlinear and nonstationary processes of real data.In this paper,we propose the FractalNet-LSTM model,which combines fractal convolutional units with recurrent long short-term memory(LSTM)layers to model time series efficiently.To test the effectiveness of the model,data with complex structures and patterns,in particular,with seasonal and cyclical effects,were used.To better demonstrate the obtained results and the formed conclusions,the model performance was shown on the datasets of electricity consumption,sunspot activity,and Spotify stock price.The result showed that the proposed model outperforms traditional approaches at medium forecasting horizons and demonstrates high accuracy for data with long-term and cyclical dependencies.However,for financial data with high volatility,the model’s efficiency decreases at long forecasting horizons,indicating the need for further adaptation.The findings suggest further adaptation.The findings suggest that integrating fractal properties into neural network architecture improves the accuracy of time series forecasting and can be useful for developing more accurate and reliable forecasting systems in various industries.

文摘In this paper,we introduce TianXing,a transformer-based data-driven model designed with physical augmentation for skillful and efficient global weather forecasting.Previous data-driven transformer models such as Pangu-Weather,FengWu,and FuXi have emerged as promising alternatives for numerical weather prediction in weather forecasting.However,these models have been characterized by their substantial computational resource consumption during training and limited incorporation of explicit physical guidance in their modeling frameworks.In contrast,TianXing applies a linear complexity mechanism that ensures proportional scalability with input data size while significantly diminishing GPU resource demands,with only a marginal compromise in accuracy.Furthermore,TianXing proposes an explicit attention decay mechanism in the linear attention derived from physical insights to enhance its forecasting skill.The mechanism can reweight attention based on Earth's spherical distances and learned sparse multivariate coupling relationships,promptingTianXing to prioritize dynamically relevant neighboring features.Finally,to enhance its performance in mediumrange forecasting,TianXing employs a stacked autoregressive forecast algorithm.Validation of the model's architecture is conducted using ERA5 reanalysis data at a 5.625°latitude-longitude resolution,while a high-resolution dataset at 0.25°is utilized for training the actual forecasting model.Notably,the TianXing exhibits excellent performance,particularly in the Z500(geopotential height)and T850(temperature)fields,surpassing previous data-driven models and operational fullresolution models such as NCEP GFS and ECMWF IFS,as evidenced by latitude-weighted RMSE and ACC metrics.Moreover,the TianXing has demonstrated remarkable capabilities in predicting extreme weather events,such as typhoons.
文摘This study provides a systematic investigation into the influence of feature selection methods on cryptocurrency price forecasting models employing technical indicators.In this work,over 130 technical indicators—covering momentum,volatility,volume,and trend-related technical indicators—are subjected to three distinct feature selection approaches.Specifically,mutual information(MI),recursive feature elimination(RFE),and random forest importance(RFI).By extracting an optimal set of 20 predictors,the proposed framework aims to mitigate redundancy and overfitting while enhancing interpretability.These feature subsets are integrated into support vector regression(SVR),Huber regressors,and k-nearest neighbors(KNN)models to forecast the prices of three leading cryptocurrencies—Bitcoin(BTC/USDT),Ethereum(ETH/USDT),and Binance Coin(BNB/USDT)—across horizons ranging from 1 to 20 days.Model evaluation employs the coefficient of determination(R2)and the root mean squared logarithmic error(RMSLE),alongside a walk-forward validation scheme to approximate real-world trading contexts.Empirical results indicate that incorporating momentum and volatility measures substantially improves predictive accuracy,with particularly pronounced effects observed at longer forecast windows.Moreover,indicators related to volume and trend provide incremental benefits in select market conditions.Notably,an 80%–85% reduction in the original feature set frequently maintains or enhances model performance relative to the complete indicator set.These findings highlight the critical role of targeted feature selection in addressing high-dimensional financial data challenges while preserving model robustness.This research advances the field of cryptocurrency forecasting by offering a rigorous comparison of feature selection methods and their effects on multiple digital assets and prediction horizons.The outcomes highlight the importance of dimension-reduction strategies in developing more efficient and resilient forecasting algorithms.Future efforts should incorporate high-frequency data and explore alternative selection techniques to further refine predictive accuracy in this highly volatile domain.

文摘Wind power forecasting plays a crucial role in optimizing the integration of wind energy into the grid by predicting wind patterns and energy output.This enhances the efficiency and reliability of renewable energy systems.Forecasting approaches inform energy management strategies,reduce reliance on fossil fuels,and support the broader transition to sustainable energy solutions.The primary goal of this study is to introduce an effective methodology for estimating wind power through temporal data analysis.This research advances an optimized Multilayer Perceptron(MLP)model using recently proposedmetaheuristic optimization algorithms,namely the FireHawk Optimizer(FHO)and the Non-Monopolize Search(NO).A modified version of FHO,termed FHONO,is developed by integrating NO as a local search mechanism to enhance the exploration capability and address the shortcomings of the original FHO.The developed FHONO is then employed to optimize the MLP for enhanced wind power prediction.The effectiveness of the proposed FHONO-MLP model is validated using renowned datasets from wind turbines in France.The results of the comparative analysis between FHONO-MLP,conventionalMLP,and other optimized versions of MLP show that FHONO-MLP outperforms the others,achieving an average RootMean Square Error(RMSE)of 0.105,Mean Absolute Error(MAE)of 0.082,and Coefficient of Determination(R^(2))of 0.967 across all datasets.These findings underscore the significant enhancement in predictive accuracy provided by FHONO and demonstrate its effectiveness in improving wind power forecasting.

文摘Timely and accurate forecasting of storm surges can effectively prevent typhoon storm surges from causing large economic losses and casualties in coastal areas.At present,numerical model forecasting consumes too many resources and takes too long to compute,while neural network forecasting lacks regional data to train regional forecasting models.In this study,we used the DUAL wind model to build typhoon wind fields,and constructed a typhoon database of 75 processes in the northern South China Sea using the coupled Advanced Circulation-Simulating Waves Nearshore(ADCIRC-SWAN)model.Then,a neural network with a Res-U-Net structure was trained using the typhoon database to forecast the typhoon processes in the validation dataset,and an excellent storm surge forecasting effect was achieved in the Pearl River Estuary region.The storm surge forecasting effect of stronger typhoons was improved by adding a branch structure and transfer learning.

文摘Studies to enhance the management of electrical energy have gained considerable momentum in recent years. The question of how much energy will be needed in households is a pressing issue as it allows the management plan of the available resources at the power grids and consumer levels. A non-intrusive inference process can be adopted to predict the amount of energy required by appliances. In this study, an inference process of appliance consumption based on temporal and environmental factors used as a soft sensor is proposed. First, a study of the correlation between the electrical and environmental variables is presented. Then, a resampling process is applied to the initial data set to generate three other subsets of data. All the subsets were evaluated to deduce the adequate granularity for the prediction of the energy demand. Then, a cloud-assisted deep neural network model is designed to forecast short-term energy consumption in a residential area while preserving user privacy. The solution is applied to the consumption data of four appliances elected from a set of real household power data. The experiment results show that the proposed framework is effective for estimating consumption with convincing accuracy.

文摘Marine heatwave(MHW)events refer to periods of significantly elevated sea surface temperatures(SST),persisting from days to months,with significant impacts on marine ecosystems,including increased mortality among marine life and coral bleaching.Forecasting MHW events are crucial to mitigate their harmful effects.This study presents a twostep forecasting process:short-term SST prediction followed by MHW event detection based on the forecasted SST.Firstly,we developed the“SST-MHW-DL”model using the ConvLSTM architecture,which incorporates an attention mechanism to enhance both SST forecasting and MHW event detection.The model utilizes SST data from the preceding 60 d to forecast SST and detect MHW events for the subsequent 15 d.Verification results for SST forecasting demonstrate a root mean square error(RMSE)of 0.64℃,a mean absolute percentage error(MAPE)of 2.05%,and a coefficient of determination(R^(2))of 0.85,indicating the model’s ability to accurately predict future temperatures by leveraging historical sea temperature information.For MHW event detection using forecasted SST,the evaluation metrics of“accuracy”,“precision”,and“recall”achieved values of 0.77,0.73,and 0.43,respectively,demonstrating the model’s capability to capture the occurrence of MHW events accurately.Furthermore,the attention-enhanced mechanism reveals that recent SST variations within the past 10 days have the most significant impact on forecasting accuracy,while variations in deep-sea regions and along the Taiwan Strait significantly contribute to the model’s efficacy in capturing spatial characteristics.Additionally,the proposed model and temporal mechanism were applied to detect MHWs in the Atlantic Ocean.By inputting 30 d of SST data,the model predicted SST with an RMSE of 1.02℃and an R^(2)of 0.94.The accuracy,precision,and recall for MHW detection were 0.79,0.78,and 0.62,respectively,further demonstrating the model’s robustness and usability.

文摘The development of wind power clusters has scaled in terms of both scale and coverage,and the impact of weather fluctuations on cluster output changes has become increasingly complex.Accurately identifying the forward-looking information of key wind farms in a cluster under different weather conditions is an effective method to improve the accuracy of ultrashort-term cluster power forecasting.To this end,this paper proposes a refined modeling method for ultrashort-term wind power cluster forecasting based on a convergent cross-mapping algorithm.From the perspective of causality,key meteorological forecasting factors under different cluster power fluctuation processes were screened,and refined training modeling was performed for different fluctuation processes.First,a wind process description index system and classification model at the wind power cluster level are established to realize the classification of typical fluctuation processes.A meteorological-cluster power causal relationship evaluation model based on the convergent cross-mapping algorithm is pro-posed to screen meteorological forecasting factors under multiple types of typical fluctuation processes.Finally,a refined modeling meth-od for a variety of different typical fluctuation processes is proposed,and the strong causal meteorological forecasting factors of each scenario are used as inputs to realize high-precision modeling and forecasting of ultra-short-term wind cluster power.An example anal-ysis shows that the short-term wind power cluster power forecasting accuracy of the proposed method can reach 88.55%,which is 1.57-7.32%higher than that of traditional methods.
