Abstract

Current industry talent demand forecast has a high complexity and non-linearity. The gray method GM(1,1) is suitable to deal with the problem of uncertain forecast with low richness of historical data without consistency, and Back-Propagation Neural Network model (BPNN) is adopted to analyze the influence of current influencing factors. The application of the improved gray-neural network integrated forecasting model in the complex nonlinear forecast is studied in combination with the case of talent demand of a certain city in northern China. Combining the GM(1,1) model, metabolism and background value optimization as the Improved Metabolic GM (1,1) model (IMGM), the forecast result of IMGM is used as the input to train BPNN for improving the forecast accuracy. And the computer simulation flow of talent demand is designed. The result of modeling example shows that the accuracy of improved integrated forecasting model IMGM-BPNN is higher than the conventional model’s.
