A systematic solution for the NN3 Forecasting Competition problem based on an ensemble of MLP neural networks

This work presents an award winning approach for solving the NN3 forecasting competition problem. It consisted of predicting 18 future values of 111 monthly short time series. This approach consists of applying the median value of a 15-MLP ensemble for predicting each time series. The system perform...

Zusammenfassung:This work presents an award winning approach for solving the NN3 forecasting competition problem. It consisted of predicting 18 future values of 111 monthly short time series. This approach consists of applying the median value of a 15-MLP ensemble for predicting each time series. The system performed very well on test data, finishing as the second best solution of the competition with a SMAPE=16.17%.
