Abstract:

The study aims to establish a short-term corn price forecasting model by using time series and support vector regression (SVR) theory, to provide technical support and decision-making basis for corn monitoring and early warning. Based on the non-linear characteristics of corn price series fluctuations, this study took the monthly data of Henan Province from January 1, 2010 to June 30, 2019 as the research object, and combined a chaotic time series with SVR theory, to study a kind of short-term corn price prediction model. The price sequence was processed by the phase space reconstruction method, the model was trained with the reconstructed data, and the grid cross validation (GridSearchCV) was used to optimize the research model. A corn price prediction model was obtained based on time series support vector regression. By analyzing the prediction results of the research model, it is showed that the prediction value of the research model is closer to the true value, and its average relative error (MRE) and root mean square error (RMSE) is 0.006 and 20.57, respectively, which are superior to the prediction results of the traditional support vector regression model, with more accuracy.

Key words: corn price, prediction model, support vector regression, phase space reconstruction, time series
