Application of Forecasting Models on Indian Coal Mining Fatal Accident (Time Series) Data

摘要

Director General of Mines Safety under the Ministry of Labour, Government of India, published an annual report which includes safety statistics of Indian mines. A combined/unified database is created from these reports for detailed analysis. The time series data on fourteen parameters was available through a unified database which was utilised in application of forecasting models based on time series modelling. Moving average, neural network and group method of data handling (GMDH) time series forecasting models were applied in the present study. The predictions and forecasts are presented here with comparisons of the results.
