The Comparison of the two-stage EWMA approach with conventional EWMAs for forecasting time series data

초록/요약

This study compared the ability of several Exponential smoothing methods in making forecasts with different kinds of time series data. For this purpose, the 8 scenario time series data are used in the comparison process. Exponential smoothing methods are a basic methodology applied to time series and widely used to forecast the future value of a time series. Nowadays, as the diverse fields of the time series, there are a lot of insufficient historical data when I want to do the forecasts. I find that it is difficult to build a reliable model with the current methods for a satisfactory forecasting accuracy. The recently proposed method, named the two-stage exponential weighted moving average(EWMA) method, compensates this limitation. In our study, I also compared the properties of the two-stage one with other exponential smoothing methods. The forecasting accuracy of each model is measured by examining the prediction error that produced by using the root mean squared error.
