Abstract
This paper presents a comparison of three different non-linear time series modelling approaches: NARMAX (Non-linear Autoregressive Moving Average with Exogenous Inputs), Beta-t-EGARCH (Beta t Exponential Generalized Autoregressive Conditional Heteroscedasticity), and Radial Basis Function Neural Networks (RBFNN) applied to weekly stock market index data. We will explain three types of models and compare their compositions and structures. Then, we will show which model gives better predictions. To study series data, the comparison involved analysing the structure of the model and its errors in various time series models and summarising their findings. We divide the data into two parts: training data to structure the time series and testing. The training data tests the model's predictions. Then, we can analyse the model with the errors and the best deterrence predictions. After selecting the NARMAX and Beta-t-EGARCH models, we test them with specific criteria. The best choice is finding the model with the lowest average errors. For this study, we analysed the weekly average closing of the Aramco 2222 index from 15 December 2019 to 16 July 2023 and made 187 observations.
