  • 19 Apr 2021 Model Combinations Through Revised Base-Rates
    Model combinations through revised base-rates Fotios Petropoulos School of Management, University of Bath UK and Evangelos Spiliotis Forecasting and Strategy Unit, School of Electrical and Computer Engineering, National Technical University of Athens, Greece and Anastasios Panagiotelis Discipline of Business Analytics, University of Sydney, Australia April 21, 2021 Abstract Standard selection criteria for forecasting models focus on information that is calculated for each series independently, disregarding the general tendencies and performances of the candidate models. In this paper, we propose a new way to sta- tistical model selection and model combination that incorporates the base-rates of the candidate forecasting models, which are then revised so that the per-series infor- arXiv:2103.16157v2 [stat.ME] 19 Apr 2021 mation is taken into account. We examine two schemes that are based on the pre- cision and sensitivity information from the contingency table of the base rates. We apply our approach on pools of exponential smoothing models and a large number of real time series and we show that our schemes work better than standard statisti- cal benchmarks. We discuss the connection of our approach to other cross-learning approaches and offer insights regarding implications for theory and practice. Keywords: forecasting, model selection/averaging, information criteria, exponential smooth- ing, cross-learning. 1 1 Introduction Model selection and combination have long been fundamental ideas in forecasting for business and economics (see Inoue and Kilian, 2006; Timmermann, 2006, and ref- erences therein for model selection and combination respectively). In both research and practice, selection and/or the combination weight of a forecasting model are case-specific.

  • Exponential Smoothing – Trend & Seasonal
    NCSS Statistical Software NCSS.com Chapter 467 Exponential Smoothing – Trend & Seasonal Introduction This module forecasts seasonal series with upward or downward trends using the Holt-Winters exponential smoothing algorithm. Two seasonal adjustment techniques are available: additive and multiplicative. Additive Seasonality Given observations X1 , X 2 ,, X t of a time series, the Holt-Winters additive seasonality algorithm computes an evolving trend equation with a seasonal adjustment that is additive. Additive means that the amount of the adjustment is constant for all levels (average value) of the series. The forecasting algorithm makes use of the following formulas: at = α( X t − Ft−s ) + (1 − α)(at−1 + bt−1 ) bt = β(at − at−1 ) + (1 − β)bt−1 Ft = γ ( X t − at ) + (1 − γ )Ft−s Here α , β , and γ are smoothing constants which are between zero and one. Again, at gives the y-intercept (or level) at time t, while bt is the slope at time t. The letter s represents the number of periods per year, so the quarterly data is represented by s = 4 and monthly data is represented by s = 12. The forecast at time T for the value at time T+k is aT + bT k + F[(T +k−1)/s]+1 . Here [(T+k-1)/s] is means the remainder after dividing T+k-1 by s. That is, this function gives the season (month or quarter) that the observation came from. Multiplicative Seasonality Given observations X1 , X 2 ,, X t of a time series, the Holt-Winters multiplicative seasonality algorithm computes an evolving trend equation with a seasonal adjustment that is multiplicative.

  • LECTURE 2 MOVING AVERAGES and EXPONENTIAL SMOOTHING OVERVIEW This Lecture Introduces Time-Series Smoothing Forecasting Methods
    Business Conditions & Forecasting – Exponential Smoothing Dr. Thomas C. Chiang LECTURE 2 MOVING AVERAGES AND EXPONENTIAL SMOOTHING OVERVIEW This lecture introduces time-series smoothing forecasting methods. Various models are discussed, including methods applicable to nonstationary and seasonal time-series data. These models are viewed as classical time-series model; all of them are univariate. LEARNING OBJECTIVES • Moving averages • Forecasting using exponential smoothing • Accounting for data trend using Holt's smoothing • Accounting for data seasonality using Winter's smoothing • Adaptive-response-rate single exponential smoothing 1. Forecasting with Moving Averages The naive method discussed in Lecture 1 uses the most recent observations to forecast future ˆ values. That is, Yt+1 = Yt. Since the outcomes of Yt are subject to variations, using the mean value is considered an alternative method of forecasting. In order to keep forecasts updated, a simple moving-average method has been widely used. 1.1. The Model Moving averages are developed based on an average of weighted observations, which tends to smooth out short-term irregularity in the data series. They are useful if the data series remains fairly steady over time. Notations ˆ M t ≡ Yt+1 - Moving average at time t , which is the forecast value at time t+1, Yt - Observation at time t, ˆ et = Yt − Yt - Forecast error. A moving average is obtained by calculating the mean for a specified set of values and then using it to forecast the next period. That is, M t = (Yt + Yt−1 + ⋅⋅⋅ + Yt−n+1 ) n (1.1.1) M t−1 = (Yt−1 +Yt−2 + ⋅⋅⋅+Yt−n ) n (1.1.2) Business Conditions & Forecasting Dr.

Abstract Early exponential smoothing techniques did not adjust for seasonality and trend. Later Holt and Winters developed methods to include these factors but they require the arbitrary choice of three smoothing constants '( , ~ and t. Our technique requires only alpha and an estimate of trend and seasonality as done for decomposition analysis. Since seasonality and trend are relatively constant why keep reestimating them - just include them. Moreover this technique is easy to perfonn on a standard spreadsheet.

  • 3. Regression & Exponential Smoothing
    3. Regression & Exponential Smoothing 3.1 Forecasting a Single Time Series Two main approaches are traditionally used to model a single time series z1, z2, . , zn 1. Models the observation zt as a function of time as zt = f(t, β) + εt where f(t, β) is a function of time t and unknown coefficients β, and εt are uncorrelated errors. 1 ∗ Examples: – The constant mean model: zt = β + εt – The linear trend model: zt = β0 + β1t + εt – Trigonometric models for seasonal time series 2π 2π z = β + β sin t + β cos t + ε t 0 1 12 2 12 t 2. A time Series modeling approach, the observation at time t is modeled as a linear combination of previous observations ∗ Examples: P – The autoregressive model: zt = j≥1 πjzt−j + εt – The autoregressive and moving average model: p q P P zt = πjzt−j + θiεt−i + εt j=1 j=1 2 Discounted least squares/general exponential smoothing n X 2 wt[zt − f(t, β)] t=1 • Ordinary least squares: wt = 1. n−t • wt = w , discount factor w determines how fast information from previous observations is discounted. • Single, double and triple exponential smoothing procedures – The constant mean model – The Linear trend model – The quadratic model 3 3.2 Constant Mean Model zt = β + εt • β: a constant mean level 2 • εt: a sequence of uncorrelated errors with constant variance σ . If β, σ are known, the minimum mean square error forecast of a future observation at time n + l, zn+l = β + εn+l is given by zn(l) = β 2 2 2 • E[zn+l − zn(l)] = 0, E[zn+1 − zn(l)] = E[εt ] = σ • 100(1 − λ) percent prediction intervals for a future realization are given by [β − µλ/2σ; β + µλ/2σ] where µλ/2 is the 100(1 − λ/2) percentage point of standard normal distribution.

  • Exponential Smoothing
    Key Concepts: Week 3 Lesson 1: Exponential Smoothing Learning Objectives Understand how exponential smoothing treats old and new information differently Understand how changing the alpha or beta smoothing factors influences the forecasts Able to apply the techniques to generate forecasts in spreadsheets Summary of Lesson Exponential smoothing, as opposed to the three other time series models we have discussed (Cumulative, Naïve, and Moving Average), treats data differently depending on its age. The idea is that the value of data degrades over time so that newer observations of demand are weighted more heavily than older observations. The weights decrease exponentially as they age. Exponential models simply blend the value of new and old information. We have students create forecast models in spreadsheets so they understand the mechanics of the model and hopefully develop a sense of how the parameters influence the forecast. The alpha factor (ranging between 0 and 1) determines the weighting for the newest information versus the older information. The “α” value indicates the value of “new” information versus “old” information: As α → 1, the forecast becomes more nervous, volatile and naïve As α → 0, the forecast becomes more calm, staid and cumulative α can range from 0 ≤ α ≤ 1, but in practice, we typically see 0 ≤ α ≤ 0.3 The most basic exponential model, or Simple Exponential model, assumes stationary demand. Holt’s Model is a modified version of exponential smoothing that also accounts for trend in addition to level. A new smoothing parameter, β, is introduced. It operates in the same way as the α. We can also use exponential smoothing to dampen trend models to account for the fact that trends usually do not remain unchanged indefinitely as well as for creating a more stable estimate of the forecast errors.
