Time-series is a sequence of observations that are taken sequentially over time. Modelling a system that generates a future value from past observations is considered as time-series forecasting system. Recurrent neural network is a machine learning method that is widely used in the prediction of future values. Due to variant improvements on recurrent neural networks, choosing of the best model for better prediction generation is dependent on problem domain and model design characteristics.

Designing an ensemble model of recurrent neural network for time-series forecasting applications would enhance prediction accuracy and improve performance. This paper highlights some of the challenges that are faced by the design of the ensemble model of different recurrent neural network versions, and surveys some of the most relevant works in order to give a direction of how to conduct ensemble learning research in the future. Based on the reviewed literature, we propose a framework for time-series forecasting based on the using of ensemble technique.
