Abstract

Financial forecasting is an extremely challenging task given the complex, nonlinear nature of financial market systems. To overcome this challenge, we present an intelligent weighted fuzzy time series model for financial forecasting, which uses a sine-cosine adaptive human learning optimization (SCHLO) algorithm to search for the optimal parameters for forecasting. New weighted operators that consider frequency based chronological order and stock volume are analyzed, and SCHLO is integrated to determine the effective intervals and weighting factors. Furthermore, a novel short-term trend repair operation is developed to complement the final forecasting process. Finally, the proposed model is applied to four world major trading markets: the Dow Jones Index (DJI), the German Stock Index (DAX), the Japanese Stock Index (NIKKEI), and Taiwan Stock Index (TAIEX). Experimental results show that our model is consistently more accurate than the state-of-the-art baseline methods. The easy implementation and effective forecasting performance suggest our proposed model could be a favorable market application prospect.
