Abstract:

We consider the problem of predicting demand for specific products based on historic data. Due to substantial differences between products, a prediction model is fit for each product separately, using spline extrapolation. Employing a mixture of parametric and Gaussian process bootstrap, prediction intervals for future demand are derived. The idea is motivated and evaluated by real world data from automobile industry, which shows that the method developed is highly relevant for practical use such as supply chain management.
