Abstract :
This paper compares the performance of Radial Basis Function and Support Vector Regression in time series forecasting. Both methods were trained to produce one step ahead forecasting on two chaotic time series data: Mackey Glass and Set A data from Santa Fe Competition. The criterions for comparison are based on the coefficient of determination (R2) and Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) between actual and forecasted output. Results show that SVR outperformed RBF significantly on both data particularly on Set A data.
