Abstract

The application of deep learning methods to construct deep neural networks for the prediction of future econometric trends and econometric data has come to receive a lot of research attention. However, it has been found that the long short-term memory (LSTM) model is unstable and overly complex. It also lacks rules for handling econometric data, which can cause errors in prediction and in the actual data. This paper proposes an empirical mode decomposition (EMD) method designed to improve deep learning for understanding US GDP trends and US GDP data prediction research. The US GDP growth rate is used only for LSTM model prediction and for real data comparison; the root mean squared error (RMSE) is 2.7274. The US GDP growth rate is EMD decomposed to obtain the intrinsic mode functions (IMFs) after which the LSTM model is used to predict an RMSE of 0.93557.© 2022 The Author(s).
