Hierarchically Coherent Multivariate Mixture Networks
满足层级加总一致性的多元混合网络
Large collections of time series data are often organized into hierarchies with different levels of aggregation; examples include product and geographical groupings. Probabilistic coherent forecasting is tasked to produce forecasts consistent across levels of aggregation. In this study, we propose to augment neural forecasting architectures with a coherent multivariate mixture output. We optimize the networks with a composite likelihood objective, allowing us to capture time…
