Using Combined Forecasts with Changing Weights for Electricity Demand Profiling
Day-ahead half-hourly demand forecasts are required for scheduling and for calculating the daily electricity pool price. One approach predicts turning points on the demand curve and then produces half-hourly forecasts by a heuristic procedure, called profiling, which is based on a past demand curve. This paper investigates possible profiling improvements. Using a cubic smoothing spline in the h...
متن کاملEvaluating Combined Non-Replicable Forecasts*
Macroeconomic forecasts are often based on the interaction between econometric models and experts. A forecast that is based only on an econometric model is replicable and may be unbiased, whereas a forecast that is not based only on an econometric model, but also incorporates an expert's touch, is non-replicable and is typically biased. In this paper we propose a methodology to analyze the qual...
متن کاملConditionally Optimal Weights and Forward-Looking Approaches to Combining Forecasts
In applied forecasting, there is a trade-off between in-sample fit and out-ofsample forecast accuracy. Parsimonious model specifications typically outperform richer model specifications. Consequently, there is often predictable information in forecast errors that is difficult to exploit. However, we show how this predictable information can be exploited in forecast combinations. In this case, o...
متن کاملReview of guidelines for the use of combined forecasts
A large literature has evolved in the thirty years since the seminal work on combining forecasts. Despite this, when evaluating performance we only look at measures of accuracy and thus ignore most of the rigour of time series analysis. Furthermore, the output from a combination of forecasts is just a single point estimate which is insufficient for business planning models which take explicit a...
متن کاملCombining Forecasts using Clustering
Given sales forecasts for a set of items along with the standard deviation associated with each forecast, we propose a new method of combining forecasts using the concepts of clustering. Clusters of items are identified based on similarity in their sales forecasts and then a common forecast (or combined forecast) is computed for each cluster of items. The objective of clustering is to minimize ...
