Abstract
Singular spectrum analysis is a powerful nonparametric technique used to decompose the original time series into a set of components that can be interpreted as trend, seasonal, and noise. For their part, neural networks are a family of information-processing techniques capable of approximating highly nonlinear functions. This study proposes to improve the precision in the prediction of air quality. For this purpose, a hybrid adaptation is considered. It is based on an integration of the singular spectrum analysis and the recurrent neural network long short-term memory; the SSA is applied to the original time series to split signal and noise, which are then predicted separately and added together to obtain the final forecasts. This hybrid method provided better performance when compared with other methods.
