Factor-augmented tree ensembles
因子增强的树集成模型
This manuscript proposes to extend the information set of time-series regression trees with latent stationary factors extracted via state-space methods. In doing so, this approach generalises time-series regression trees on two dimensions. First, it allows to handle predictors that exhibit measurement error, non-stationary trends, seasonality and/or irregularities such as missing observations. Second, it gives a transparent way for using domain-specific theory to inform…
