Abstract:In order to detect outliers in temperature time series data for improving data quality and decision-making quality related to design and operation, we proposed an algorithm based on sliding window prediction. Firstly, the time series are segmented based on the sliding window. Then, the prediction model is established based on the history data to predict the future value. If the difference between a predicted value and a measured value is larger than the preset threshold value, the sequence point will be judged to be an outlier and then corrected. In this paper, the sliding window and parameter settings of the algorithm are discussed and the algorithm is verified on actual data. This method does not need to pre classify the abnormal points and perform fast, and can handle large scale data. The experimental results show that the proposed algorithm can not only effectively detect outliers in the time series of meteorological data but also improves the correction efficiency notoriously.
