Description
Book SynopsisVolume 12, Advances in Business and Management Forecasting, is a blind refereed serial publication. It presents state-of-the-art studies in the application of forecasting methodologies to such areas as supply chain, health care, prospecting for donations from university alumni, and the use of clustering and regression in forecasting. The orientation of this volume is for business applications for both the researcher and the practitioner of forecasting.
Volume 12 is divided into three sections: Forecasting Applications, Predictive Analytics and Time Series. An interdisciplinary group of experts explore wide-ranging topics including multi-criteria scoring models, detecting rare events, the assessment of control charts for intermittent data, and fuzzy time series models.
Trade ReviewBusiness scholars discuss forecasting applications; predictive analytics, regression analysis, and clustering in forecasting; and time series, intermittent data, and supply chain applications. Among the topics are the effect of releasing information on searching for missing children: the case of the Baby Back Home network, forecasting treatment outcomes for the Futures drug and alcohol rehabilitation center, a novel approach to forecasting regression and cluster analysis, developing a practical and effective forecasting performance measure, and forecasting in-service supply chain systems: a state-of-the-art review using latent semantic analysis. -- Annotation ©2017 * (protoview.com) *
