Tax data is a typical time series data, which is subject to the interaction and influence of economic and political factors and has dynamic and highly nonlinear characteristics. The key to correct tax forecasting is the choice of forecasting algorithm. Traditional tax forecasting methods, such as factor scoring method, factor regression method, and system adjustment method, have a certain guiding role in actual work, but there are still many shortcomings, such as the limitation from the distribution and size of sample data and difficulty of grasping the nonlinear phenomena in economic system. Grey-Markov chain model formed by the combination of grey forecasting and Markov chain forecasting can not only reveal the general developmental trend of time series data, but also predict their state change patterns. Based on the summary and analysis of previous research works, this paper expounds the current research status and significance of tax forecasting, elaborates the development background, current status, and future challenges of the Grey-Markov chain model, introduces the basic principles of grey forecasting model and Markov chain model, constructs the Grey-Markov chain model, analyzes the model’s residual error and posteriori error tests, conducts the analysis of Grey-Markov chain model, performs grey forecasting model construction and its state division, implements the calculation of transition probability matrix and the determination of tax forecasting value, discusses the application of the Grey-Markov chain model in tax forecasting, and finally carries out a simulation experiment and its result analysis. The study results show that, compared with separate grey forecasting, Markov chain forecasting, and other commonly used time series forecasting methods, the Grey-Markov chain model increases the accuracy of tax forecasts by an average of 2.3–13.1%. This indicates that the combinative forecasting of Grey-Markov chain model can make full use of the information provided by time series data for tax analysis and forecasting. It can not only avoid the influence of economic, political, and human subjective factors, but also have simple calculations, higher accuracy, and stronger practicality. The study results of this paper provide a reference for further researches on the analysis and application of Grey-Markov chain model in tax forecasting.

Price is one of the important things that need to concern as defining factor of the profit or loss of product selling as the result of price fluctuations that are very difficult to control. Price fluctuations are caused by many factors including weather, stock availability, demand and others. One of the steps to solve the price fluctuations problem is by making a forecast of fish incoming prices. The purpose of this study is to apply Markov chain’s fuzzy time series to forecast farming fish prices. Markov chain fuzzy time series is one of the prediction methods to predict time series data that has advantages in the implentation of historical data, flexible, and high level of data forecasting accuracy. This study used fish prices at November 2018. The results showed that markov chain fuzzy time series showed very accurate forecasting results with a mean error percentage of absolute percentage error (MAPE) of 1.4% so the accuracy of the Markov chain fuzzy time series method is 98, 6%.

Planning and operation are important elements in water resource management. Rainfall forecasting is one of the conducts commonly used to extend the lead-time for catchments with short response time. However, it is difficult to obtain a high degree of accuracy in rainfall forecasting using deterministic models. Therefore, a probability-based rainfall forecasting model, based on Markov Chain provided a better alternative due to its ability to preserve the basic statistical properties ofthe original series. This method was especially useful in the absence of long-term recorded data, a rampant phenomenon in Malaysia. Comparison of statistics in the generated synthetic rainfall data against those of the observed data revealed that reasonable levels of acceptability were achieved.

Abstract The load of the showcase is a nonlinear and unstable time series data, and the traditional forecasting method is not applicable. Deep learning algorithms are introduced to predict the load of the showcase. Based on the CEEMD–IPSO–LSTM combination algorithm, this paper builds a refrigerated display cabinet load forecasting model. Compared with the forecast results of other models, it finally proves that the CEEMD–IPSO–LSTM model has the highest load forecasting accuracy, and the model’s determination coefficient is 0.9105, which is obviously excellent. Compared with other models, the model constructed in this paper can predict the load of showcases, which can provide a reference for energy saving and consumption reduction of display cabinet.

Online deliberation research has recently developed automated indicators to assess the deliberative quality of much user-generated online data. While most previous studies have developed indicators based on content analysis and network analysis, time-series data and associated methods have been studied less thoroughly. This article contributes to the literature by proposing indicators based on a combination of network analysis and time-series analysis, arguing that it will help monitor how online deliberation evolves. Based on Habermasian deliberative criteria, we develop six throughput indicators and demonstrate their applications in the OmaStadi participatory budgeting project in Helsinki, Finland. The study results show that these indicators consist of intuitive figures and visualizations that will facilitate collective intelligence on ongoing processes and ways to solve problems promptly.

PurposeThis paper applied grey wave forecasting in a decomposition–ensemble forecasting method for modelling the complex and non-linear features in time series data. This application aims to test the advantages of grey wave forecasting method in predicting time series with periodic fluctuations.Design/methodology/approachThe decomposition–ensemble method combines empirical mode decomposition (EMD), component reconstruction technology and grey wave forecasting. More specifically, EMD is used to decompose time series data into different intrinsic mode function (IMF) components in the first step. Permutation entropy and the average of each IMF are checked for component reconstruction. Then the grey wave forecasting model or ARMA is used to predict each IMF according to the characters of each IMF.FindingsIn the empirical analysis, the China container freight index (CCFI) is applied in checking prediction performance. Using two different time periods, the results show that the proposed method performs better than random walk and ARMA in multi-step-ahead prediction.Originality/valueThe decomposition–ensemble method based on EMD and grey wave forecasting model expands the application area of the grey system theory and graphic forecasting method. Grey wave forecasting performs better for data set with periodic fluctuations. Forecasting CCFI assists practitioners in the shipping industry in decision-making.
