Abstract :
The combined forecasting and the way of improving such forecasting methodology through optimized combination and recursion is the focus of this paper; the GMDH is applied to select variables relevant to economic forecasting models before establishing a single forecasting model such as regression model and neural network model; and the final step is to establish a combined forecasting model through positive weights by using the time series model established based on the GMDH.
