There is a time series international-airline-passengers.csv, How do you use it? RNN To predict ? This paper elaborates on it in detail .

This time series consists of 144 that 's ok , The amount of data is small , But use it to learn RNN It's enough to use it .

use RNN The overall idea of forecasting time series is as follows :

*
Take the second column of the time series (international-airline-passengers.csv The first column of data is time , Not used in this program ), Because the second column values are quite different , So this paper uses the “( Original value - average value )/ standard deviation ” The data were standardized by using the method of , front 80% The training set is based on the selected data train_x, after 20% As the test set test_x.
* set up RNN Parameters of :input_dim=1,seq_size=5,hidden_dim=100
*
The labels of training set and test set are marked as train_y,test_y,train_x and train_y The value of is staggered by one unit ,test_x and test_y The value of is also staggered by one unit , Easy to calculate cost value
* RNN Output of the model out by 5 A one-dimensional array of values
Implementation procedure

read CSV file , Data standardization data_loader.py:
import csv import numpy as np import matplotlib.pyplot as plt def
load_series(filename, series_idx=1): try: with open(filename) as csvfile:
csvreader = csv.reader(csvfile) data = [float(row[series_idx]) for row in
csvreader if len(row) > 0] #
Data standardization , Can make the data floating difference is not so big , Make the prediction result more accurate .np.mean Averaging ,np.std Seeking standard deviation . normalized_data = (data -
np.mean(data)) / np.std(data) return normalized_data except IOError: return
None # Cut the data into 80% Training set ,20% Test set def split_data(data, percent_train=0.80): num_rows =
len(data) train_data, test_data = [], [] for idx, row in enumerate(data): if
idx < num_rows * percent_train: train_data.append(row) else:
test_data.append(row) return train_data, test_data if __name__ == '__main__':
timeseries = load_series('international-airline-passengers.csv')

There are about three ways to stop iteration :

* Precision is greater than a certain threshold, stop . example :acc>=0.98 Stop ;
* test err There are several floats and stops ;
* The number of iterations reached XXX Stop for the first time .
This paper adopts the second method .
