A novel approach of hidden Markov model for time series forecasting

Published:08 January 2015Publication History

ABSTRACT

In the past few years, tremendous studies have been made to examine the accuracy of time series forecasting that provide the foundation for decision models in foreign exchange data. This study proposes a novel approach of Hidden Markov Model and Case Based reasoning for time series forecasting. This paper compares the proposed method with the single HMM and HMM ensemble with neural network. HMM is trained by using forward-backward or Baum-Welch algorithm and the likelihood value is used to predict future exchange rate price. The forecasting accuracy has been measured according to Root Mean Square Error (RMSE). The statistical performance of all techniques is investigated in testing of EUR/USD exchange rate time series over the period of October 2010 to March 2014. The preliminary results indicate that the new approach of HMM produce the lowest RMSE compared to the benchmark models. Further study is to adopt HMM-CBR in testing of GBP/USD, GBP/JPY, USD/JPY, and EUR/JPY exchange rate.
