A Theoretical Derivation of Relationships between Forecast Errors

نویسنده

  • Jerry Z Shan
چکیده

This paper describes a theoretical study of forecast errors. First, we formally define forecast errors with different rationales, derive several relationships among them, and prove a heuristic formula proposed by Mark Sower.1 Then we study the effects of a systematic bias on the forecast errors. Finally, we extend our study to the situations where correlations across product demands and time effects in demand and forecast are taken into account. Definitions and theorems are presented first, and proofs of the theorems are given at the end of the paper.

A Nonlinear Creep-damage Constitutive Model of Mudstone Based on the Fractional Calculus Theory

During the flood development in an oil field, the creep characteristic of mudstone is one of the important factors causing casing damage. In this study, based on the theory of fractional order differential and taking into account the creep damage evolution rules, a fractional nonlinear creep-damage model is proposed to reflect the instantaneous deformation in loading processes and the accelerat...

On the derivation of the pre-lockup feature based condition monitoring method for automatic transmission clutches

This paper discusses how a qualitative understanding on the physics of failure can lead to a theoretical derivation of effective features that are useful for condition monitoring of wet friction clutches. The physical relationships between the features and the mean coefficient of friction (COF) which can be seen as the representation of the degradation level of a wet friction clutch are theoret...

24 . 3 Forecasting Mesoscale Uncertainty :

All types of end users who must make weatherdependent decisions stand to benefit greatly from knowing the expected accuracy of a particular forecast a priori. Forecast accuracy varies both spatially and temporally as a result of initial state and model errors, which change as the atmospheric flow evolves. Probabilistic weather forecasts derived from numerical weather prediction (NWP) ensembles ...
