The paper proposes a hybrid approach to improve accurate crude oil price forecasting by integrating metaheuristic optimization with an ensemble of neural network architectures for time series forecasting. The approach uses the GWO metaheuristic optimizer at four levels: feature selection, data preparation, model training, and forecast blending. The proposed method is evaluated using real-world Brent crude oil price data and achieves improved forecasting performance measured by various benchmarks, with a mean squared error (MSE) of 0.000127.

The paper helps predict the future price of oil better, which is important for businesses that trade energy, manage risks, or make investment decisions. Right now, deep learning models are good at this task, but they need to be adjusted just right and can perform differently depending on the situation. The authors suggest combining different machine learning techniques with a special optimization method called GWO. This approach tries to find the best way to prepare data, choose features, train the model, and combine predictions. Using real-world data from Brent crude oil prices, the paper shows that this new approach does better than existing methods in forecasting future oil prices.
