Abstract

This paper shows the use of particle swarm optimization (PSO) in the design of a neural network ensemble with type-1 and type-2 fuzzy integration of responses for time series prediction. The considered time series in this paper for testing the hybrid approach is the US/Dollar MX time series. Simulation results show that the hybrid ensemble approach, combining neural networks and fuzzy logic, produces good prediction of the dollar time series.
