A hybrid modified group method of data handling with the wavelet decomposition for oil palm price forecasting

This thesis presents an exploratory study on hybrid modelling of palm oil price forecasting using modified group method of data handling (GMDH) network with the discrete wavelet transform (DWT) approach. Despite the fact that Malaysia is one of the largest producer and exporter of palm oil, the rese...
