This paper aims to optimize neural network algorithms in order to improve their predictive performance and meet the demand for Douyin live sales forecasting. The Douyin live data of Florasis between January 2022 and June 2022 were collected from Huitun data and preprocessed. Using the Pearson correlation coefficient, six factors that are highly correlated with live sales were selected for subsequent prediction. This paper briefly introduces the back-propagation neural network (BPNN) algorithm and analyzes its parameter optimization methods, including particle swarm optimization (PSO), the artificial bee colony (ABC) algorithm, and the beetle antler search (BAS) algorithm. Then, an improved beetle antennae search (IBAS) algorithm was developed by introducing inertia weight and used to construct an IBAS-BPNN model for predicting sales volume in Douyin live streaming. The results showed that compared with the BPNN, PSO-BPNN, and ABC-BPNN algorithms, the IBAS-BPNN algorithm had better prediction performance, with a root-mean-square error of 335.6694, a mean absolute percentage error of 0.0532%, an equilibrium coefficient of 0.9889, and a shorter training time of 90.07 s. The experimental results demonstrate the reliability of the IBAS-BPNN algorithm for predicting sales volume in Douyin live streaming, providing new insights into parameter optimization of BPNN and offering references for further research on BPNN parameter optimization. It also provides an effective method with both timeliness and high accuracy for predicting sales volume in Douyin live streaming in practical applications.
