ID_Forecast: ID_Forecast for forecasting intermittent demand data
Description
ID_Forecast for forecasting intermittent demand data. It runs collapsed gibbs sampler simulations, using the count and size quantile regression models, for every period for all group levels in your data.
This is the count data returned from AutoCatBoostFreqSizeScoring() or AutoH2oGBMFreqSizeScoring()
SizeData
This is the size data returned from AutoCatBoostFreqSizeScoring() or AutoH2oGBMFreqSizeScoring()
CountDataNames
This is the count data names returned from AutoCatBoostFreqSizeScoring() or AutoH2oGBMFreqSizeScoring()
SizeDataNames
This is the size data returned from AutoCatBoostFreqSizeScoring() or AutoH2oGBMFreqSizeScoring()
GroupVar
This is your grouping variable. E.g. sku as being the name of the column that contains all skus
FC_Periods
The max period of your forecast. E.g. if you want 52 weeks of forecasts, set to 52
NumSims
Set the number of collapsed gibbs simulations to run for each time unit forecast. E.g. if you want 52 weeks of forecasts, the simulations will run NumSims for each period up to 52.
PredictionIntervals
Set the prediction intervals you want returned. E.g. c(seq(0.05,0.95,0.05))
Value
Returns your entire set of groupvar forecasts in a single data.table
