Item type:Publication, The Estimating Parameter and Number of Knots for Nonparametric Regression Methods in Modelling Time Series Data(2024-12-01)This research aims to explore and compare several nonparametric regression techniques, including smoothing splines, natural cubic splines, B-splines, and penalized spline methods. The focus is on estimating parameters and determining the optimal number of knots to forecast cyclic and nonlinear patterns, applying these methods to simulated and real-world datasets, such as Thailand’s coal import data. Cross-validation techniques are used to control and specify the number of knots, ensuring the curve fits the data points accurately. The study applies nonparametric regression to forecast time series data with cyclic patterns and nonlinear forms in the dependent variable, treating the independent variable as sequential data. Simulated data featuring cyclical patterns resembling economic cycles and nonlinear data with complex equations to capture variable interactions are used for experimentation. These simulations include variations in standard deviations and sample sizes. The evaluation criterion for the simulated data is the minimum average mean square error (MSE), which indicates the most efficient parameter estimation. For the real data, monthly coal import data from Thailand is used to estimate the parameters of the nonparametric regression model, with the MSE as the evaluation metric. The performance of these techniques is also assessed in forecasting future values, where the mean absolute percentage error (MAPE) is calculated. Among the methods, the natural cubic spline consistently yields the lowest average mean square error across all standard deviations and sample sizes in the simulated data. While the natural cubic spline excels in parameter estimation, B-splines show strong performance in forecasting future values. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Improved Probability-Weighted Moments and Two-Stage Order Statistics Methods of Generalized Extreme Value Distribution(2025-07-01)This study evaluates six parameter estimation methods for the generalized extreme value (GEV) distribution: maximum likelihood estimation (MLE), two probability-weighted moments (PWM-UE and PWM-PP), and three robust two-stage order statistics estimators (TSOS-ME, TSOS-LMS, and TSOS-LTS). Their performance was assessed using simulation experiments under varying tail behaviors, represented by three types of GEV distributions: Weibull (short-tailed), Gumbel (light-tailed), and Fréchet (heavy-tailed) distributions, based on the mean squared error (MSE) and mean absolute percentage error (MAPE). The results showed that TSOS-LTS consistently achieved the lowest MSE and MAPE, indicating high robustness and forecasting accuracy, particularly for short-tailed distributions. Notably, PWM-PP performed well for the light-tailed distribution, providing accurate and efficient estimates in this specific setting. For heavy-tailed distributions, TSOS-LTS exhibited superior estimation accuracy, while PWM-PP showed a better predictive performance in terms of MAPE. The methods were further applied to real-world monthly maximum PM2.5 data from three air quality stations in Bangkok. TSOS-LTS again demonstrated superior performance, especially at Thon Buri station. This research highlights the importance of tailoring estimation techniques to the distribution’s tail behavior and supports the use of robust approaches for modeling environmental extremes. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, An Enhanced Discriminant Analysis Approach for Multi-Classification with Integrated Machine Learning-Based Missing Data Imputation(2025-11-01); This study addresses the challenge of accurate classification under missing data conditions by integrating multiple imputation strategies with discriminant analysis frameworks. The proposed approach evaluates six imputation methods (Mean, Regression, KNN, Random Forest, Bagged Trees, MissRanger) across several discriminant techniques. Simulation scenarios varied in sample size, predictor dimensionality, and correlation structure, while the real-world application employed the Cirrhosis Prediction Dataset. The results consistently demonstrate that ensemble-based imputations, particularly regression, KNN, and MissRanger, outperform simpler approaches by preserving multivariate structure, especially in high-dimensional and highly correlated settings. MissRanger yielded the highest classification accuracy across most discriminant analysis methods in both simulated and real data, with performance gains most pronounced when combined with flexible or regularized classifiers. Regression imputation showed notable improvements under low correlation, aligning with the theoretical benefits of shrinkage-based covariance estimation. Across all methods, larger sample sizes and high correlation enhanced classification accuracy by improving parameter stability and imputation precision. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Forecasting Models for Total Crude Palm Oil Productions in Thailand(2024-12-02) ;Banditvilai, SomsriThis research aims to find a suitable forecasting model for Thailand's total crude palm oil production. The monthly total crude palm oil production in Thailand was gathered from the Office of Agricultural Economics, Ministry of Agriculture, and cooperatives from January 2010 to December 2022. The data were divided into two sets. The first set, from January 2010 to December 2021, was used for constructing and selecting the forecasting models. The second one, from January 2022 to December 2022, was used to compute the accuracy of the forecasting model. Since the total crude palm oil production has trend and seasonal variation, the research used the Holt-Winters method with different initial settings for trend and seasonal influence, the Bagging Holt-Winters method, and the Box-Jenkins method to construct the forecasting models. The minimum mean square error (MSE) and residuals have normal distributions used to select the appropriate forecasting model, and the mean absolute percentage error (MAPE) was used to compute the efficiency of the forecasting model.According to the three forecasting methods results, the Box-Jenkins method was suitable for forecasting Thailand's total crude palm oil production. The ARIMA(2,1,2)(0,1,1)12 model was the best model for predicting Thailand's total crude palm oil production and yielded the MAPE =13.49% - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Bayesian Approach for Confidence Intervals of Variance on the Normal Distribution(2022-01-01)This research aims to compare estimating the confidence intervals of variance based on the normal distribution with the primary method and the Bayesian approach. The maximum likelihood is the well-known method to approximate variance, and the Chi-squared distribution performs the confidence interval. The central Bayesian approach forms the posterior distribution that makes the variance estimator, which depends on the probability and prior distributions. Most introductory prior information looks for the availability of the prior distribution, informative prior distribution, and noninformative prior distribution. The gamma, Chi-squared, and exponential distributions are defined in the prior distribution. The informative prior distribution uses the Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) method to draw the random sample from the posterior distribution. The Fisher information performs the Wald confidence interval as the noninformative prior distribution. The interval estimation of the Bayesian approach is obtained from the central limit theorem. The performance of these methods considers the coverage probability and minimum value of the average width. The Monte Carlo process simulates the data from a normal distribution with the true parameter of mean and several variances and the sample sizes. The R program generates the simulated data repeated 10,000 times in each situation. The results showed that the maximum likelihood method employed on the small sample sizes. The best confidence interval estimation was when sample sizes increased the Bayesian approach with an available prior distribution. Overall, the Wald confidence interval tended to outperform the large sample sizes. For application in real data, we expressed the reported airborne particulate matter of 2.5 in Bangkok, Thailand. We used the 10-1000 records to estimate the confidence interval of variance and evaluated the interval width. The results are similar to those of the simulation study. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Empirical Comparison of Forecasting Methods for Air Travel and Export Data in Thailand(2024-12-01) ;Banditvilai, SomsriTime series forecasting plays a critical role in business planning by offering insights for a competitive advantage. This study compared three forecasting methods: the Holt–Winters, Bagging Holt–Winters, and Box–Jenkins methods. Ten datasets exhibiting linear and non-linear trends and clear and ambiguous seasonal patterns were selected for analysis. The Holt–Winters method was tested using seven initial configurations, while the Bagging Holt–Winters and Box–Jenkins methods were also evaluated. The model performance was assessed using the Root-Mean-Square Error (RMSE) to identify the most effective model, with the Mean Absolute Percentage Error (MAPE) used to gauge the accuracy. Findings indicate that the Bagging Holt–Winters method consistently outperformed the other methods across all the datasets. It effectively handles linear and non-linear trends and clear and ambiguous seasonal patterns. Moreover, the seventh initial configurationdelivered the most accurate forecasts for the Holt–Winters method and is recommended as the optimal starting point. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Comparing parameter estimation of random coefficient autoregressive model by frequentist method(2020-01-01)This paper compares the frequentist method that consisted of the least-squares method and the maximum likelihood method for estimating an unknown parameter on the Random Coefficient Autoregressive (RCA) model. The frequentist methods depend on the likelihood function that draws a conclusion from observed data by emphasizing the frequency or proportion of the data namely least squares and maximum likelihood methods. The method of least squares is often used to estimate the parameter of the frequentist method. The minimum of the sum of squared residuals is found by setting the gradient to zero. The maximum likelihood method carries out the observed data to estimate the parameter of a probability distribution by maximizing a likelihood function under the statistical model, while this estimator is obtained by a differential parameter of the likelihood function. The efficiency of two methods is considered by average mean square error for simulation data, and mean square error for actual data. For simulation data, the data are generated at only the first-order models of the RCA model. The results have shown that the least-squares method performs better than the maximum likelihood. The average mean square error of the least-squares method shows the minimum values in all cases that indicated their performance. Finally, these methods are applied to the actual data. The series of monthly averages of the Stock Exchange of Thailand (SET) index and daily volume of the exchange rate of Baht/Dollar are considered to estimate and forecast based on the RCA model. The result shows that the least-squares method outperforms the maximum likelihood method. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Modified Liu Parameters for Scaling Options of the Multiple Regression Model with Multicollinearity Problem(2024-10-01)The multiple regression model statistical technique is employed to analyze the relationship between the dependent variable and several independent variables. The multicollinearity problem is one of the issues affecting the multiple regression model, occurring in regard to the relationship among independent variables. The ordinal least square is the standard method to evaluate parameters in the regression model, but the multicollinearity problem affects the unstable estimator. Liu regression is proposed to approximate the Liu estimators based on the Liu parameter, to overcome multicollinearity. In this paper, we propose a modified Liu parameter to estimate the biasing parameter in scaling options, comparing the ordinal least square estimator with two modified Liu parameters and six standard Liu parameters. The performance of the modified Liu parameter is considered, generating independent variables from the multivariate normal distribution in the Toeplitz correlation pattern as the multicollinearity data, where the dependent variable is obtained from the independent variable multiplied by a coefficient of regression and the error from the normal distribution. The mean absolute percentage error is computed as an evaluation criterion of the estimation. For application, a real Hepatitis C patients dataset was used, in order to investigate the benefit of the modified Liu parameter. Through simulation and real dataset analysis, the results indicate that the modified Liu parameter outperformed the other Liu parameters and the ordinal least square estimator. It can be recommended to the user for estimating parameters via the modified Liu parameter when the independent variable exhibits the multicollinearity problem. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Comparative Evaluation of Event-Based Forecasting Models for Thai Airport Passenger Traffic(2026-02-01); Accurate passenger traffic forecasting is vital for strategic planning in Thailand’s aviation industry. This study forecasts the monthly total number of passengers at Suvarnabhumi (BKK), Don Mueang (DMK), Chiang Mai (CNX), and Phuket (HKT) airports using data from 2017 to 2024. The dataset was partitioned into training (January 2017–December 2023) and testing (January–December 2024) sets. Six methods were compared: Single Exponential Smoothing, Holt’s, Holt’s with Events Adjustment, Holt–Winters Multiplicative, TBATS model, and Box–Jenkins. Performance was evaluated using Mean Absolute Percentage Error (MAPE) and Mean Absolute Error (MAE). The results indicate that the optimal forecasting method varies by airport characteristics. Holt’s Method with Events Adjustment, which incorporates major disruptions such as the COVID-19 pandemic, produced the most accurate forecasts for BKK and DMK by effectively capturing external shocks. In contrast, the Holt–Winters Multiplicative method performed best for CNX and HKT, reflecting strong seasonal patterns typically driven by tourism activities in these destinations. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, The Use of Spline Techniques in the Nonparametric Regression Analysis for the Sequence Data with a Random Walk Process(2025-01-01); This study evaluates and compares various spline techniques in the nonparametric regression analysis, specifically focusing on the smoothing spline regression, the natural spline regression, the B-spline regression, and the penalized spline regression. The dependent variable in this analysis is time series data generated by a random walk process, while the independent variable is represented as sequential data. The simulation data, derived from a random walk process with diverse variances and sample sizes, ensures an absence of fixed patterns in the variable's changes. In addition, real-world data from the monthly trading volume of the SET (Stock Exchange of Thailand) index is used for practical application. The criterion for model efficiency estimation is based on minimizing the average mean square error for the simulation and SET index data. At the same time, predictive performance for future values is assessed through the minimum of average mean absolute percentage error. Among the models tested, the natural spline regression achieved the minimum average mean square error in all simulations due to SET index data estimation, excelling in model fit. However, the B-spline regression proved highly effective for forecasting future values.
