Study’s Excerpt/Novelty

  • This research introduces an application of dynamic linear models (DLM) and Innovation state space models based on Exponential smoothing methods to effectively capture and forecast wind speed patterns in Katsina metropolis from January 2013 to December 2022.
  • By incorporating trend, seasonal, and regressive components, the study provides a comprehensive and interpretable modeling framework.
  • The DLM's superior performance in one-step-ahead forecasts, validated through residual analysis, demonstrates its robustness and suitability for accurately replicating the observed wind speed data, offering valuable insights for wind speed prediction in complex systems.

Full Abstract

For many years, experts have acknowledged the intricate nature of wind speed, considering it a prime example of complex systems.  In recent times, wind speed patterns have become increasingly erratic.  This research paper focuses on a state space approach that utilizes dynamic linear models (DLM) and an Innovation state space model based on Exponential smoothing methods to effectively model wind speed data in the Katsina metropolis from January 2013 to December 2022.  By incorporating trend, seasonal, and regressive components, these methods allow for a natural interpretation of the data.  The model's parameters were estimated, and their validity was assessed through residual analysis.  The validated models were then used for one-step-ahead forecasts.  Comparing the predicted values with the observed wind speed series, the DLM demonstrates a closer match than the Innovation state space ETS (M, N, A), indicating that the model accurately replicates the actual data.  Consequently, the model is considered suitable for representing the wind speed of Katsina.
