Carbon trading is a significant mechanism created to control carbon emissions, and the increasing enthusiasm for participation in the carbon trading market has forced the emergence of higher-precision carbon price prediction models. Facing the complexity of carbon price time series, this paper proposes a carbon price forecasting hybrid model based on secondary decomposition and an improved extreme learning machine (ELM). First, the complementary ensemble empirical mode decomposition with adaptive noise (CEEMDAN) is utilized to decompose the carbon price several intrinsic modal functions to initially weaken the non-linearity of the original carbon price data. Secondly, the first intrinsic mode function (IMF1) with the strongest volatility is processed by the variational mode decomposition (VMD). Then, the partial autocorrelation function (PACF) is applied to obtain the model input variables for subsequences. Finally, the ELM improved by the bald eagle search (BES) algorithm is utilized to make predictions. In the empirical analysis, five actual datasets from three carbon markets are used to verify the prediction performance of the proposed model. Based on the six evaluation indicators of the predicted results, the proposed model is the best performer among all models, which suggests that CEEMDAN-VMD-BES-ELM is effective and stable in predicting carbon price.

Carbon emission reduction is now a global issue, and the prediction of carbon trading market prices is an important means of reducing emissions. This paper innovatively proposes a second decomposition carbon price prediction model based on the nuclear extreme learning machine optimized by the Sparrow search algorithm and considers the structural and nonstructural influencing factors in the model. Firstly, empirical mode decomposition (EMD) is used to decompose the carbon price data and variational mode decomposition (VMD) is used to decompose Intrinsic Mode Function 1 (IMF1), and the decomposition of carbon prices is used as part of the input of the prediction model. Then, a maximum correlation minimum redundancy algorithm (mRMR) is used to preprocess the structural and nonstructural factors as another part of the input of the prediction model. After the Sparrow search algorithm (SSA) optimizes the relevant parameters of Extreme Learning Machine with Kernel (KELM), the model is used for prediction. Finally, in the empirical study, this paper selects two typical carbon trading markets in China for analysis. In the Guangdong and Hubei markets, the EMD-VMD-SSA-KELM model is superior to other models. It shows that this model has good robustness and validity.

Due to the nonlinear and non-stationary characteristics of the carbon price, it is difficult to predict the carbon price accurately. This paper proposes a new novel hybrid model for carbon price prediction. The proposed model consists of an extreme-point symmetric mode decomposition, an extreme learning machine, and a grey wolf optimizer algorithm. Firstly, the extreme-point symmetric mode decomposition is employed to decompose the carbon price into several intrinsic mode functions and one residue. Then, the partial autocorrelation function is utilized to determine the input variables of the intrinsic mode functions, and the residue of the extreme learning machine. In the end, the grey wolf optimizer algorithm is applied to optimize the extreme learning machine, to forecast the carbon price. To illustrate the superiority of the proposed model, the Hubei, Beijing, Shanghai, and Guangdong carbon price series are selected for the predictions. The empirical results confirm that the proposed model is superior to the other benchmark methods. Consequently, the proposed model can be employed as an effective method for carbon price series analysis and forecasting.

With the development of the carbon market in China, research on the carbon price has received more and more attention in related fields. However, due to its nonlinearity and instability, the carbon price is undoubtedly difficult to predict using a single model. This paper proposes a new hybrid model for carbon price forecasting that combines fast ensemble empirical mode decomposition, sample entropy, phase space reconstruction, a partial autocorrelation function, and an extreme learning machine that has been improved by particle swarm optimization. The original carbon price series is decomposed using the fast ensemble empirical mode decomposition and sample entropy methods, which eliminate noise interference. Then, the phase space reconstruction and partial autocorrelation function methods are combined to determine the input and output variables in the forecasting models. An extreme learning machine optimized by particle swarm optimization was employed to forecast carbon prices. An empirical study based on carbon prices in three typical regional carbon markets in China found that this new hybrid model performed better than other comparable models.

In response to climate change and environmental issues, many countries have gradually optimized carbon market management and improved the carbon market trading mechanism. Carbon price prediction plays a pivotal role in promoting carbon market management when investors are guided by prediction to conduct rational carbon trading. A novel carbon price prediction methodology is constructed based on ensemble empirical mode decomposition, improved bat algorithm, and extreme learning machine (EEMD-IBA-ELM) in this study. Firstly, the carbon price is decomposed into multiple regular intrinsic mode function (IMF) components by the ensemble empirical mode decomposition, and partial autocorrelation analysis (PACF) is used to find IMF historical data affecting the current value of IMF. Secondly, the improved bat algorithm (IBA) is used to heighten extreme learning machine (ELM) while adaptive parameters are obtained. Finally, EEMD-IBA-ELM was established to predict carbon price. Simultaneously, energy price fluctuation is introduced into the carbon price prediction model. As a consequence, EEMD-IBA-ELM carbon price prediction ability is further improved. In the empirical analysis, the historical carbon price of European Climate Exchange (ECX) and Korea Exchange (KRX) markets are used to examine the effectiveness and stability of the model. Errors of carbon price prediction in ECX and KRX is 2.1982% and 1.1762%, respectively. The results show that the EEMD-IBA-ELM carbon price prediction model can accurately predict carbon price when prediction effect shows strong stability. Furthermore, carbon price prediction accurateness was significantly enhanced by using energy price fluctuation as an influencing factor of carbon price prediction.

Aiming at the irregularity of nonlinear signal and its predicting difficulty, a deep learning prediction model based on extreme-point symmetric mode decomposition (ESMD) and clustering analysis is proposed. Firstly, the original data is decomposed by ESMD to obtain the finite number of intrinsic mode functions (IMFs) and residuals. Secondly, the fuzzy c-means is used to cluster the decomposed components, and then the deep belief network (DBN) is used to predict it. Finally, the reconstructed IMFs and residuals are the final prediction results. Six kinds of prediction models are compared, which are DBN prediction model, EMD-DBN prediction model, EEMD-DBN prediction model, CEEMD-DBN prediction model, ESMD-DBN prediction model, and the proposed model in this paper. The same sunspots time series are predicted with six kinds of prediction models. The experimental results show that the proposed model has better prediction accuracy and smaller error.

To address the problem that the faults in axial piston pumps are complex and difficult to effectively diagnose, an integrated hydraulic pump fault diagnosis method based on the modified ensemble empirical mode decomposition (MEEMD), autoregressive (AR) spectrum energy, and wavelet kernel extreme learning machine (WKELM) methods is presented in this paper. First, the non-linear and non-stationary hydraulic pump vibration signals are decomposed into several intrinsic mode function (IMF) components by the MEEMD method. Next, AR spectrum analysis is performed for each IMF component, in order to extract the AR spectrum energy of each component as fault characteristics. Then, a hydraulic pump fault diagnosis model based on WKELM is built, in order to extract the features and diagnose faults of hydraulic pump vibration signals, for which the recognition accuracy reached 100%. Finally, the fault diagnosis effect of the hydraulic pump fault diagnosis method proposed in this paper is compared with BP neural network, support vector machine (SVM), and extreme learning machine (ELM) methods. The hydraulic pump fault diagnosis method presented in this paper can diagnose faults of single slipper wear, single slipper loosing and center spring wear type with 100% accuracy, and the fault diagnosis time is only 0.002 s. The results demonstrate that the integrated hydraulic pump fault diagnosis method based on MEEMD, AR spectrum, and WKELM methods has higher fault recognition accuracy and faster speed than existing alternatives.
