Bagging ensemble-based novel data generation method for univariate time series forecasting

초록

The most critical issue in time series data is predicting future data values. Recently, an ensemble model combining multiple models with superior predictive performance has emerged. However, in the case of uni-variate time series data, an accurate prediction remains difficult because of the unique characteristic of the data: there is only one variable to analyze. In this paper, we propose a method to improve the performance of pre-dictive models with a simple structure and apply it to time series data. This study proposes a time series fore-casting method based on a bagging ensemble that uses the maximum overlap discrete wavelet transform (MODWT) and bootstrap. The proposed method decomposes the scale and detail of the time series data using the MODWT. The bootstrap is applied to univariate time series to generate bootstrapped data that slightly differ from the characteristics of the original data. Through experiments, we examined the results and validated the details of the proposed method depending on whether the proposed method was applied. In most cases, we confirmed that our proposed method improves the performance of the existing algorithms by employing a nonparametric test. The results show that the performance improved more when the algorithm is simple
