Dear all,

i would like to predicte the wind speed of a spesific location for the next 2 hours (12 points of 10min data) for that i am only using lagged input data of the time series (NAR AA tool).

i am trying to test the optimum number of delays (lagged inputs) needed to get a good prediction resutls using a for loop to increse the number of delays (for example between 1 and 10)

I am also trying to test the optimum number of inputs (input length) that need to be used for training the network and getting a better prediction. also by using another for loop (for example betweem number_of_delay_plus_one to length(input))

my code looks like the following:

if true
  clear
clc
load('C:\Users\00037218\Desktop\Wind Speed prediction\E82_Wind_1_2013.mat');

  time_input = Input_wind(:,1);
  time_target = (time_input(end)+mean(diff(time_input)):mean(diff(time_input)):time_input(end)+(prediction_indx*mean(diff(time_input))))';
  time = [time_input;time_target];

  i_end = length(Final_test);
  j_end = 10;
  for i = prediction_indx:prediction_indx:i_end
      targetSeries = tonndata(Final_test(1:i,:),false,false);
      targetSeriesVal = tonndata(Final_test(i+1:end,:),false,false);
      for j = 1:i-1%j_end

            nets = removedelay(net);
            [xs,xis,ais,ts] = preparets(nets,{},{},targetSeries);

            subplot(3,1,1);
            plot(cell2mat(inputs)); hold on;plot(cell2mat(outputs),'-.r');grid on; hold off;
            legend('Original Targets (Inputs)','Network Predictions (output)')
            subplot(3,1,2);
            plot(cell2mat(targets)); hold on;plot(cell2mat(yc),'-.r');grid on; hold off;
            legend('Original Targets','Network Predictions')
            subplot(3,1,3);
            plot(cell2mat(targetSeriesPred)); hold on;plot(cell2mat(yc),'-.r');grid on; hold off;
            legend('Original Targets_pred.','Network Predictions')
            save('Input_Data.mat','targetSeries','targetSeriesVal','i','j','prediction_indx')
            clear
            load('Input_Data.mat');
        end
    end
  end 
my question is:
1- what i am doing wrong:
   a- why my target data is changing even that i need it to be constant which mean i will always try to predicte the same next 2 hours with different delays used. (but i am not)
   b- how can i use the same input data length for training with changable 'for loop' number of lags (delays)?
   c- how to re-do the calcultion on a new input data length which is also changable 'for loop' in numaber

So simply speaking i am trying to do the following (only example):

if true
  for i = 5:5: length(inputdata)
    NN_input = inputdata(1:i);
    NN_target = inputdata(i+1:12);% 12 is for the next 2 hours it can be changed and it is 
% only used to compare
    forj = 1:1:10 % for changing the delays in the delay layer
    feedbackDelays = 1:j;
    * _% in this part my input and target data should stay the same *They are no*_ *
    % network code
    % stuff for testing the resutls
    % stuff for presenting the reustls
    end
  end

Thx in advance for you support

Find feedback delays from the significant delays of the target autocorrelation function.

Find input delays from the significant delays of the input/target cross-correlation function.

Hi Greg,

I have already read your comments before asking my question and i know that the autocorrelation will help in obtaining the optimum number of delays (lags/ feedback) outputs. for that i have a question how can i get the significant delays? (is it the number of lags at which the autocorrelation coeficient at its peak?).

if so how can i get the optumum number of lags if i have two peaks at different lags (same value)?

another question is:

1- dose the partial autocorrelation help in such situation as stated before?

2- my real question is: why i am not getting the expected results from my code (by results i mean the same traget data with different lags /feedback delays/ as i am trying to use the same input for the NN and test for differet values of lags /delays/)?

as you can see my:

targetSeries = tonndata(Final_test(1:i,:),false,false);

targetSeriesVal = tonndata(Final_test(i+1:end,:),false,false);

my values are not changing in the second for loop so why am i seeing changes in the plots?

Thx in advance Aubai

All of this is covered in previous NEWSGROUP and ANSWERS posts

greg nncorr narnet

What have I done in my posts that you don't do in yours?

Aubai 2014-4-25

hallo Greg,

thanks for your answer :)

I am trying to find the answer in those previous Answers, Newsgroup. but not fining it can you refer me to a spesific one?

another question: how the 'preparets' function works? i think my problem is there as iam getting random input data everytime the for-loop changes and this giving me not what i am expecting.

again i would like to: for the same available input data (for training) train the network for different delays number (changing with for-loop) and then predict the next 12 points in my time-series. so in my case i want the 'preparets' function to give me always the same set of input, validation and training data yet with different number of delays. how can i do this??

Best Regards
