Abstract Spatio-temporal forecasting has various applications in climate, transportation, geo-statistics, sociology, economics and in many other fields of study. The modelling of temperature and it forecasting is a challenging task due to spatial dependency of time series data and nonlinear in nature. To address these challenges, in this study we proposed hybrid Space-Time Autoregressive Moving Average-Generalized Autoregressive Conditional Heteroscadicity (STARMA-GARCH) model in order to describe and identify the behaviour of monthly maximum temperature and temperature range in Bihar. At the modelling process of STARMA, spatial characteristics are incorporated into the model using a weight matrix based on great circle distance between the regions. The residuals from the fitted STARMA model have been tested by Brock, Dechert, and Scheinkman (BDS) and Autoregressive Conditional Heteroscadicity-Lagrange Multiplier (ARCH-LM) test for the behaviour of nonlinearity and ARCH effect respectively. The test results revealed that presence of both nonlinearity and ARCH effect. Hence GARCH modelling is necessary. Therefore, the hybrid STARMA-GARCH model is used to capture the dynamics of monthly maximum temperature and temperature range. The results of the proposed hybrid STARMA (1 1 , 0, 0)−GARCH (0, 1) model has better modelling efficiency and forecasting precision over STARMA (1 1 ,0, 0) model.

Generalized space time autoregressive integrated  moving average (GSTARIMA) model is a time series model of multiple variables with spatial and time linkages (space time). GSTARIMA model is an extension of the space time autoregressive integrated moving average (STARIMA) model with the assumption that each location has unique model parameters, thus GSTARIMA model is more flexible than STARIMA model. The purposes of this research are to determine the best model and predict the time series data of rice price on all provincial capitals of Sumatra island using GSTARIMA model. This research used weekly data of rice price on all provincial capitals of Sumatra island from January 2010 to December 2017. The spatial weights used in this research are the inverse distance and queen contiguity. The modeling result shows that the best model is GSTARIMA (1,1,0) with queen contiguity weighted matrix and has the smallest MAPE value of 1.17817 %.

Lahore and Dhaka are rapid expanding and over populated cities of South Asia located in Pakistan andBangladesh respectively. The present study focuses on the evaluation of temperature variability in comparison of bothcities. This study primarily aims at the assessment and examination of temperature variations in both mega cities ofSouth Asia which are seasonal as well as the annual. The time series data were analysed by using statistical techniquesAutoregressive Moving Average Model (ARMA) and Autoregressive Integrated Average Model (ARIMA). The resultsreveal that the minimum temperature is increasing much faster than that of the maximum temperature of both cities.However, the temperature rise(in maximum and minimum) has been observed highest during the spring seasons in bothcities.

The present study is undertaken to develop area specific weather forecasting models based on time series data for Pantnagar, Uttarakhand. The study was carried out by using time series secondary monthly weather data of 27 years (from 1981-82 to 2007-08). The trend analysis of weather parameters was done by Mann-Kendall test statistics. The methodologies adopted to forecast weather parameters were the winter’s exponential smoothing model and Seasonal Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average (SARIMA). Comparative study has been carried out by using forecast error percentage and mean square error. The study showed that knowledge of this trend is likely to be helpful in planning and production of enterprises/crops. The study of forecast models revealed that SARIMA model is the most efficient model for forecasting of monthly maximum temperature, monthly minimum temperature and monthly humidity I. The Winter’s model was found to be the most efficient model for forecasting Monthly Humidity II but no model was found to be appropriate to forecast monthly total rainfall.

In this paper, a hybrid ARIMA-GARCH model is proposed to model and predict the equity returns for three US benchmark indices: Dow Transportation, S&P 500 and VIX. Equity returns are univariate time series data sets, one of the methods to predict them is using the Auto-Regressive Integrated Moving Average (ARIMA) models. Despite the fact that the ARIMA models are powerful and flexible, they are not be able to handle the volatility and nonlinearity that are present in the time series data. However, the Generalized Autoregressive Conditional Heteroscedasticity (GARCH) models are designed to capture volatility clustering behavior in time series. In this paper, we provide motivations and descriptions of the hybrid ARIMA-GARCH model. A complete data analysis procedure that involves a series of hypothesis testings and a model fitting procedure using the Akaike Information Criterion (AIC) is provided in this paper as well. Simulation results of out of sample predictions are also provided in this paper as a reference.

To forecast time series data, two methodological frameworks of statistical and computational intelligence modelling are considered. The statistical methodological approach is based on the theory of invertible ARIMA (Auto-Regressive Integrated Moving Average) models with Maximum Likelihood (ML) estimating method. As a competitive tool to statistical forecasting models, we use the popular classic neural network (NN) of perceptron type. To train NN, the Back-Propagation (BP) algorithm and heuristics like genetic and micro-genetic algorithm (GA and MGA) are implemented on the large data set. A comparative analysis of selected learning methods is performed and evaluated. From performed experiments we find that the optimal population size will likely be 20 with the lowest training time from all NN trained by the evolutionary algorithms, while the prediction accuracy level is lesser, but still acceptable by managers.

BACKGROUND The Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-2019) is a global pandemic and Nigeria is not left out in being affected. Though, the disease is just over three months since first case was identified in the country, we present a predictive model to forecast the number of cases expected to be seen in the country in the next 100 days. OBJECTIVE To implement a predictive model in forecasting the near future number of positive cases expected in the country following the present trend METHODS We performed an Auto Regressive Integrated Moving Average (ARIMA) model prediction on the epidemiological data obtained from Nigerian Centre for Disease Control to predict the epidemiological trend of the prevalence and incidence of COVID-2019. RESULTS There were 93 time series data points which lacked stationarity. From our ARIMA model, it is expected that the number of new cases declared per day will keep rising and towards the early September, 2020, Nigeria is expected to have well above sixty thousand confirmed cases. CONCLUSIONS We however believe that as we have more data points our model will be better fine-tuned.

Across the world, healthcare systems are under stress and this has been hugely exacerbated by the COVID pandemic. Key Performance Indicators (KPIs), usually in the form of time-series data, are used to help manage that stress. Making reliable predictions of these indicators, particularly for emergency departments (ED), can facilitate acute unit planning, enhance quality of care and optimise resources. This motivates models that can forecast relevant KPIs and this paper addresses that need by comparing the Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average (ARIMA) method, a purely statistical model, to Prophet, a decomposable forecasting model based on trend, seasonality and holidays variables, and to the General Regression Neural Network (GRNN), a machine learning model. The dataset analysed is formed of four hourly valued indicators from a UK hospital: Patients in Department; Number of Attendances; Unallocated Patients with a DTA (Decision to Admit); Medically Fit for Discharge. Typically, the data exhibit regular patterns and seasonal trends and can be impacted by external factors such as the weather or major incidents. The COVID pandemic is an extreme instance of the latter and the behaviour of sample data changed dramatically. The capacity to quickly adapt to these changes is crucial and is a factor that shows better results for GRNN in both accuracy and reliability.

The paper attemps to forecast the future trend of Vietnam index (VN-index) by using long-short term memory (LSTM) networks. In particular, an LSTM-based neural network is employed to study the temporal dependence in time-series data of past and present VN index values. Empirical forecasting results show that LSTM-based stock trend prediction offers an accuracy of about 60% which outperforms moving-average-based prediction.
