<![CDATA[One of the oldest known predictive analytics techniques is time series prediction. The target in time series prediction is use historical data about a specific quantity to predicts value of the same quantity in the future. Multivariate time series (MTS) data has been widely used in time series prediction research because it is considered better than univariate time series (UTS) data. However, in reality MTS data sets contain various types of information which makes it difficult to extract information to predict the situation. Therefore, UTS data still has a chance to be developed because it is actually simpler than MTS data. UTS prediction treats forecasts as a single variable problem, whereas MTS may employ a large number of time-concurred series to make predictions. Neural Network (NN) model could be built to predict the target variable given the other (predictor) variables. In this study, we used Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithm to optimize performance of NN on a UTS dataset. Our proposed model is validated using x-validation and and use RMSE to measure its performance. The experimental results show that NN performance after optimization using PSO produces good results compared to classical NN performance. This is evidenced by the value of RMSE = 0.410 which is the smallest RMSE value produced. The smaller the RMSE value, the better the model performance. It can be concluded that the proposed method can improve NN performance on UTS data.]]>
