Forecast combinations for intermittent demand [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the Operational Research Society, 2015
Intermittent demand is characterised by infrequent demand arrivals, where many periods have zero demand, coupled with varied demand sizes. The dual source of variation renders forecasting for intermittent demand a very challenging task. Many researchers have focused on the development of specialised methods for intermittent demand.

Sensitivity of Weights in Combining Forecasts [PDF]

open access: yesOperations Research, 1992
In the combination of forecasts, weighted averages that attempt to take into account the accuracy of the forecasts and any dependence among forecasts tend to perform poorly in practice. An important factor influencing this performance is the sensitivity, or instability, of the estimated weights used to generate the combined forecast.

Analysis of Weighting Strategies for Improving the Accuracy of Combined Forecasts

open access: yesMathematics, 2022
This paper deals with the weighted combination of forecasting methods using intelligent strategies for achieving accurate forecasts. In an effort to improve forecasting accuracy, we develop an algorithm that optimizes both the methods used in the ...

Interval forecasts of weekly incident and cumulative COVID-19 mortality in the United States: A comparison of combining methods.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2022
BackgroundA combined forecast from multiple models is typically more accurate than an individual forecast, but there are few examples of studies of combining in infectious disease forecasting.

Modelo composto para prever demanda através da integração de previsões Composed model to foresee demand through the integration of forecasts

open access: yesProduction, 2006
Realizar previsões de demanda é uma atividade importante na empresa, entretanto, usar uma única técnica para obtê-las pode não ser suficiente para incorporar todo o conhecimento associado ao ambiente de previsão.

Die kombinering van ekonomiese vooruitskattings in die Suid-Afrikaanse konteks

open access: yesSouth African Journal of Business Management, 1989
In the literature on forecasting, consensus has been reached about improved forecasting accuracy brought about by the combination of two or more forecasts for a given variable.

Forecasting Costa Rican inflation with machine learning methods

open access: yesLatin American Journal of Central Banking, 2020
We present a first assessment of the predictive ability of machine learning methods for inflation forecasting in Costa Rica. We compute forecasts using two variants of k-nearest neighbors, random forests, extreme gradient boosting and a long short-term ...

A comparative study on combinations of forecasts and their individual forecasts by means of simulated series

open access: yesActa Scientiarum: Technology, 2019
Over the years, several studies that compare individual forecasts with the combination of forecasts were published. There is, however, no unanimity in the conclusions. Furthermore, methods of combination by regression are poorly explored.

Technical note: Combining quantile forecasts and predictive distributions of streamflows [PDF]

open access: yesHydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2017
The enhanced availability of many different hydro-meteorological modelling and forecasting systems raises the issue of how to optimally combine this great deal of information.
