The Importance of Environmental Factors in Forecasting Australian Power Demand [PDF]
We develop a time series model to forecast weekly peak power demand for three main states of Australia for a yearly time-scale, and show the crucial role of environmental factors in improving the forecasts. More precisely, we construct a seasonal autoregressive integrated moving average (SARIMA) model and reinforce it by employing the exogenous ...

Hedonic Models of Real Estate Prices: GAM and Environmental Factors [PDF]
We consider the use of P-spline generalized additive hedonic models for real estate prices in large U.S. cities, contrasting their predictive efficiency against linear and polynomial based generalized linear models. Using intrinsic and extrinsic factors available from Redfin, we show that GAM models are capable of describing 84% to 92% of the variance ...
