Modeling Gold Price via Artificial Neural Network

Hossein Mombeini and Abdolreza Yazdani-Chamzini

Abstract—Developing a precise and accurate model of gold price is critical to manage assets because of its unique features. In this paper, artificial neural network (ANN) model have been used for modeling the gold price, and compared with the traditional statistical model of ARIMA (autoregressive integrated moving average). The three performance measures, the coefficient of determination (R2), root mean squared error (RMSE), mean absolute error (MAE), are utilized to evaluate the performances of different models developed. The results show that the ANN model outperforms ARIMA model, in terms of different performance criteria during the training and validation phases.

Index Terms—ANN, gold price, forecasting, ARIMA.
