G-NM: A Group of Numerical Time Series Prediction Models

Abstract

In this study, we focus on the development and implementation of a comprehensive ensemble of numerical time series forecasting models, collectively referred to as the Group of Numerical Time Series Prediction Model (G-NM). This inclusive set comprises traditional models such as Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average (ARIMA), Holt-Winters' method, and Support Vector Regression (SVR), in addition to modern neural network models including Recurrent Neural Network (RNN) and Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM). G-NM is explicitly constructed to augment our predictive capabilities related to patterns and trends inherent in complex natural phenomena. By utilizing time series data relevant to these events, G-NM facilitates the prediction of such phenomena over extended periods. The primary objective of this research is to both advance our understanding of such occurrences and to significantly enhance the accuracy of our forecasts. G-NM encapsulates both linear and non-linear dependencies, seasonalities, and trends present in time series data. Each of these models contributes distinct strengths, from ARIMA's resilience in handling linear trends and seasonality, SVR's proficiency in capturing non-linear patterns, to LSTM's adaptability in modeling various components of time series data. Through the exploitation of the G-NM potential, we strive to advance the state-of-the-art in large-scale time series forecasting models. We anticipate that this research will represent a significant stepping stone in our ongoing endeavor to comprehend and forecast the complex events that constitute the natural world.
