Abstract

This research aims to: (1) create an appropriate hybrid forecasting equation for each type of aircraft; and (2) forecast each type of aircraft. Each type of aircraft’s data is collected from Phuket International Airport over a period of 336 hours (14 days) for train data and 24 hours (1 day) for test data, and then the data is analyzed by Microsoft Excel and Microsoft Visual Basic for Applications. Result found: an appropriate hybrid forecasting equation comes from the simulated annealing algorithm and the gradient descent algorithm, which afterward forecasted all types of aircraft. Code B is 100 percent accurate; Code C is 82.53 percent accurate; Code D is 100 percent accurate, and Code E is 100 percent accurate.
