Abstract

To address the problem that the traditional BP(Back-Propagation) neural network is prone to fall into the local optimal situation for carbon emission prediction, and thus the prediction results have large errors, this paper proposes to improve the BP neural network by using particle swarm optimization algorithm, and conducts simulation experiments with national carbon emission data. The results show that the model has a 12.1% reduction in error compared with the traditional BP neural network model, and has a better prediction effect on carbon emissions.
