Statistical and Machine Learning forecasting methods: Concerns and ways forward.

TL;DR: It is found that the post-sample accuracy of popular ML methods are dominated across both accuracy measures used and for all forecasting horizons examined, and that their computational requirements are considerably greater than those of statistical methods.

Online Short-term Solar Power Forecasting

TL;DR: The method is suited to online forecasting in many applications and in this paper it is used to predict hourly values of solar power for horizons of up to 36 h, where the results indicate that for forecasts up to 2 h ahead the most important input is the available observations ofSolar power, while for longer horizons NWPs are theMost important input.

Bagging predictors

Leo Breiman
TL;DR: Tests on real and simulated data sets using classification and regression trees and subset selection in linear regression show that bagging can give substantial gains in accuracy.

Classification and Regression by randomForest

TL;DR: random forests are proposed, which add an additional layer of randomness to bagging and are robust against overfitting, and the randomForest package provides an R interface to the Fortran programs by Breiman and Cutler.
