A Novel Theoretical Framework for Exponential Smoothing
指数平滑的新理论框架
Simple Exponential Smoothing is a classical technique used for smoothing time series data by assigning exponentially decreasing weights to past observations through a recursive equation; it is sometimes presented as a rule of thumb procedure. We introduce a novel theoretical perspective where the recursive equation that defines simple exponential smoothing occurs naturally as a stochastic gradient ascent scheme to optimize a sequence of Gaussian log-likelihood functions.…
