Neural network ensemble operators for time series forecasting

TL;DR: The proposed mode ensemble operator is found to produce the most accurate forecasts, followed by the median, while the mean has relatively poor performance, suggesting that the mode operator should be considered as an alternative to the mean and median operators in forecasting applications.

Forecasting: theory and practice

Fotios Petropoulos, +84 more
- 04 Dec 2020 - 
TL;DR: A non-systematic review of the theory and the practice of forecasting, offering a wide range of theoretical, state-of-the-art models, methods, principles, and approaches to prepare, produce, organise, and evaluate forecasts.
Journal ArticleDOI

The effect of positive feedback in a constraint-based intelligent tutoring system

TL;DR: Empirical evaluation shows that students who were interacting with the augmented version of SQL-Tutor learned at twice the speed as the students who interacted with the standard, error feedback only, version of the system.
Journal ArticleDOI

Another look at forecast selection and combination: evidence from forecast pooling

TL;DR: A heuristic is proposed to automatically identify forecast pools, irrespective of their source or the performance criteria, and demonstrate that in various conditions it performs at least as good as alternative pools that require additional modelling decisions and better than selection or combination.
Journal ArticleDOI

Distributions of forecasting errors of forecast combinations: Implications for inventory management

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined the forecast error distributions of base and combination forecasts and their implications for inventory performance, and found that combining multiple forecasts is effective not only in reducing forecast errors, but also in being less sensitive to limitations of a single model.
