2. 高级预测模型
除了基本的预测模型，还有许多高级模型可以处理更复杂的预测任务。
2.1 随机森林
随机森林是一种集成学习方法，通过构建多个决策树来进行预测。

from sklearn.datasets import make_regression
def random_forest_prediction():
X, y = make_regression(n_samples=100, n_features=4, noise=0.1)
X_train, X_test, y_train, y_test = train_test_split(X, y, test_size=0.2, random_state=42)
model = RandomForestRegressor(n_estimators=100, random_state=42)
model.fit(X_train, y_train)
y_pred = model.predict(X_test)
mse = mean_squared_error(y_test, y_pred)
print(f"Random Forest Mean Squared Error: {
mse}")
feature_importance = model.feature_importances_
for i, importance in enumerate(feature_importance):
print(f"Feature {
i+1} importance: {
importance}")

2.2 LSTM神经网络
长短期记忆（LSTM）网络是一种特殊的递归神经网络，特别适合处理时间序列数据。
from tensorflow.keras.models import Sequential
from tensorflow.keras.layers import LSTM, Dense
from sklearn.preprocessing import MinMaxScaler
def lstm_prediction():
# 生成示例时间序列数据
time_steps = np.linspace(0, 100, 1000)
data = np.sin(time_steps) + np.random.normal(0, 0.1, 1000)
# 数据预处理
scaler = MinMaxScaler()
data_scaled = scaler.fit_transform(
