Comparative analysis of time series forecasting models effectiveness by means of a multi-criteria procedure on the example of financial indicators

Abstract

In the course of the research, a program complex was developed for forecasting time series using models of different classes and analysis of their effectiveness. Known time series models, such as neural networks, fuzzy logic, adaptive prediction, autoregressive-moving average models, group method of data handling, singular spectral decomposition were constructed. To fully assess the suitability of a model to forecast a particular series, it is important to evaluate the model on several parameters, namely, the accuracy of the built predictions, the complexity of mathematical calculations and the adequacy of the results. Setting aside a certain criterion may lead to loss of quality of forecasting regarding the future behavior of the process. Insufficiently accurate models will give too high value of forecast error. Ignoring the complexity of a model can lead to the use of excessive number of parameters or the choice of models with an unreasonably complex architecture. The adequacy of the model explains how well the model describes the investigated process. The procedure developed by the authors allows taking into account all of the above-mentioned factors. Accuracy is measured by calculating the values of sum square and absolute error predictions. The complexity of the model is estimated using information quality criteria. Adequacy is determined by calculating the value of the adjusted determination coefficient, conducting Fisher test and analyzing the residues. The offered algorithm allows carrying out the analysis of efficiency of the constructed forecasting models. The results of his work can be used both for the direct forecasting of the values of future levels of a series, and for further studies in the field of analysis of time series. Preliminary step when constructing ensembles of prediction models or identifying emissions in a time sequence may be an example.
