Time series data from real problems have nonlinear, non-smooth, and multi-scale composite characteristics. This paper first proposes a gated recurrent unit-correction (GRU-corr) network model, which adds a correction layer to the GRU neural network. Then, a adaptive staged variation PSO (ASPSO) is proposed. Finally, to overcome the drawbacks of the imprecise selection of the GRU-corr network parameters and obtain the high-precision global optimization of network parameters, weight parameters and the hidden nodes number of GRU-corr is optimized by ASPSO, and a time series prediction model (ASPSO-GRU-corr) is proposed based on the GRU-corr optimized by ASPSO. In the experiment, a comparative analysis of the optimization performance of ASPSO on a benchmark function was performed to verify its validity, and then the ASPSO-GRU-corr model is used to predict the ship motion cross-sway angle data. The results show that, ASPSO has better optimization performance and convergence speed compared with other algorithms, while the ASPSO-GRU-corr has higher generalization performance and lower architecture complexity. The ASPSO-GRU-corr can reveal the intrinsic multi-scale composite features of the time series, which is a reliable nonlinear and non-steady time series prediction method.
