Forecasting model selection through out-of-sample rolling horizon weighted errors

Demand forecasting is an essential process for any firm whether it is a supplier, manufacturer or retailer. A large number of research works about time series forecast techniques exists in the literature, and there are many time series forecasting tools. In many cases, however, selecting the best ti...

A large number of research works about time series forecast techniques exists in the literature, and there are many time series forecasting tools.

In this paper, a new automatic selection procedure of time series forecasting models is proposed.

As result, the firm has increased the level of success in its demand forecasts. © 2011 Elsevier Ltd.

In this paper, a new automatic selection procedure of time series forecasting models is proposed.
