Improved BIGRU Model and Its Application in Stock Price Forecasting.

In order to obtain better prediction results, this paper combines improved complete ensemble EMD (ICEEMDAN) and the whale algorithm of multi-objective optimization (MOWOA) to improve the bidirectional gated recurrent unit (BIGRU), which makes full use of original complex stock price time series data and improves the hyperparameters of the BIGRU network. To address the problem that BIGRU cannot make full use of the stationary data, the original sequence data are processed using the ICEEMDAN decomposition algorithm to derive the non-stationary and stationary parts of the data and modeled with the BIGRU and the autoregressive integrated moving average model (ARIMA), respectively. The modeling process introduces a whale algorithm for multi-objective optimization, which improves the probability of finding the best combination of parameter vectors. The R 2 , MAPE, MSE, MAE, and RMSE values of the BIGRU algorithm, ICEEMDAN-BIGRU algorithm, MOWOA-BIGRU algorithm, and the improved algorithm were compared. An average improvement of 14.4% over the original algorithm's goodness-of-fit value will greatly improve the accuracy of stock price predictions. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
