Abstract

The modified approach on fuzzy time series, which is represented by [3], is applied to rubber price in Thailand. The developed forecasting method corresponds to the uncertain data. The nearest symmetric trapezoidal fuzzy numbers are used to further enhance the forecasting accuracy. The accuracy of this method is compared to the traditional method and actual values by the Mean Absolute Percentage Error (MAPE). The results show that the forecasts by the developed fuzzy time series forecasting method is more accuracy than the traditional method.
