Accurate prediction of the Particulate Matter 2.5 (PM 2.5) plays a crucial role in the accurate management of air pollution and prevention of respiratory diseases. However, PM 2.5 as a time series is extremely difficult to accurately predict. In this paper, a Hybrid Integration (HIG) algorithm that combines data pre-processing, time-series decomposition, signal decomposition, a prediction module, a matching strategy, and a hybrid integrated optimization algorithm is proposed. First, the optimal parameters for the four individual models were selected by integrating multiple evaluation perspectives. Additivity was then determined by Seasonal and Trend decomposition using LOWESS (STL), followed by refinement decomposition using signal decomposition. The four new sequences were reconstructed using Range Entropy (RangeEn) and mapped to the models. Additionally, Recurrent Neural Networks (RNN) and Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) methods were optimized using the HIG algorithm. The results show that the HIG-RNN and HIG-LSTM are more advantageous than the ordinary method in terms of reasonable weight assignment. Finally, an innovative confusion test method was developed to test the stability of the prediction direction. To ensure generalizability, validation was performed using PM 2.5 data from two regions of China. The results show that the method significantly improves the prediction performance and provides a powerful tool for policy formulation and management. [Display omitted] • A hybrid integration (HIG) algorithm is proposed. • Prediction results were evaluated using the original COI and improved ICOI. • Creative time-frequency analysis bypasses traditional time series constraints. • RangeEn can assess entropy series for regularity to avoid excessive decomposition. • A pioneer confusion test for model direction consistency check was developed.
