  • Probabilistic Forecasting in Decision-Making: New Methods and Applications
    Probabilistic Forecasting in Decision-Making: New Methods and Applications Xiaojia Guo A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy of University College London. UCL School of Management University College London November 10, 2020 2 I, Xiaojia Guo, confirm that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Where information has been derived from other sources, I confirm that this has been indi- cated in the work. 3 To my family for their invaluable support throughout the years. Abstract This thesis develops new methods to generate probabilistic forecasts and applies these methods to solve operations problems in practice. The first chapter introduces a new product life cycle model, the tilted-Gompertz model, which can predict the distribution of period sales and cumulative sales over a product’s life cycle. The tilted-Gompertz model is developed by exponential tilting the Gompertz model, which has been widely applied in modelling human mortality. Due to the tilting parameter, this new model is flexible and capable of describing a wider range of shapes compared to existing life cycle models. In two empirical studies, one on the adoption of new products and the other on search interest in social networking websites, I find that the tilted-Gompertz model performs well on quantile forecast- ing and point forecasting, when compared to other leading life-cycle models. In the second chapter, I develop a new exponential smoothing model that can cap- ture life-cycle trends. This new exponential smoothing model can also be viewed as a tilted-Gompertz model with time-varying parameters.

The facilities offered by Cirip.eu recommend it as a modern and flexible mobile Social Learning Management System (mSLMS), integrating users' Personal Learning Environments; 2. How microblogging can be integrated with other Web2.0 technologies, and into the Open Educational Resources movement; 3. How the experience and the new pedagogical approach in using microblogging can be captured and formally represented as learning design objects; 4. How learning design objects can be shared, discussed, improved, reused on the microblogging platform. Keywords: microblogging, education, learning design, Cirip.
