Abstract:

A multi-modality modeling method for time series data based on fuzzy cognitive maps is proposed to address the problem that a single model is difficult to accurately reflect the multi-modal characteristics of time series.The bootstrap method is used to select multiple sub-sequences from the original time serieswhich contain the diverse modality in the original time series. The fuzzy cognitive map sub-models are constructed on each sub-sequencesrespectively. The formed sub-models are further merged by means of granular computing method and the merging performance with different weighting strategies is analyzed. The developed multi-modal model not only has prediction abilities at the numeric and interval level, but also has better interpretability. Experimental results on public datasets exhibit the usefulness and satisfactory efficiency of the proposed approach.

Key words: fuzzy cognitive maps, granular computing, time series, model weight
