Abstract

The PM2.5 in each city exhibits seasonal and trend variations, but its seasonal pattern differed regionally. Under the novel grey modelling framework, a flexible grey Fourier model is developed by introducing the Fourier series to approximate the seasonal forcing. An integral matching method is employed to estimate the structural parameters and initial value simultaneously, then a data-driven order selection approach is utilized to accommodate various seasonal features. Next, Monte-Carlo simulation is designed to verify the effectiveness of the order selection approach and the influence of noise level. Finally, this model is established for predicting the monthly PM2.5 of four capital cities in the Yangtze River Delta of China. The results indicate that it not only reflects the different seasonal patterns of the four cities but also performs well compared to the seven competitive models.
