  1. CHAPTER 4 MOVING AVERAGES AND SMOOTHING METHODS (Page 107)

  2. (4.1) NAÏVE MODELS • They are based solely on the most recent information available. • Is sometimes called the “no change” forecast. • Suitable for very small data sets. • The simplest model is:

  3. Pattern of data: ST, stationary; T, trended; S, seasonal; C, cyclical. Time horizon: S, short term (less than three months); I, intermediate; L, long term Type of model: TS, time series; C, causal. Seasonal: s, length of seasonality. of Variable: V, number variables.

  4. Example 4.1 (Page 108) • Table 4-1 Sales of Saws for Acme Tool Company, 2000 – 2006. • Initialization (Fitting) Part: 2000 – 2005. • Test Part: 2006.

  5. (4.2) • The technique can be adjusted to take trend into consideration: • The rate of change might be more appropriate than the absolute amount of change:

  6. (4.4) (4.5) • An appropriate forecast equation for quarterly data: • The analyst can combine seasonal and trend estimates using: • For monthly data:

  7. Example 4.1 (cont.) • Using Equations (4.3, 4.4, and 4.5) (Pages 110 – 111)

  8. Forecasting Methods Based on Averaging (Page 111)

  9. Pattern of data: ST, stationary; T, trended; S, seasonal; C, cyclical. Time horizon: S, short term (less than three months); I, intermediate; L, long term Type of model: TS, time series; C, causal. Seasonal: s, length of seasonality. of Variable: V, number variables.

  10. Simple Averages Uses the mean of all the relevant historical observations as the forecast of the next period. (4.6) (4.7) • New observation is added: (Page 111)

  11. Is used for stabilized series, and the environment is generally unchanging. Pattern of data: ST, stationary; T, trended; S, seasonal; C, cyclical. Time horizon: S, short term (less than three months); I, intermediate; L, long term Type of model: TS, time series; C, causal. Seasonal: s, length of seasonality. of Variable: V, number variables.

  12. Example 4.2 Table 4-2 Gasoline Purchases for the Spokane Transit Authority for Example 4.2

  13. Time Series Graph Figure 4-3 Time Series Plot of Weekly Gasoline Purchases for the Spokane Transit Authority The data seems stationary.

  14. Solution

  15. (4.8) Moving Averages • A moving average of order k is the mean value of the k most recent observations. K = number of terms in the moving average. The method does not handle trend or seasonality very well, although it does better than the simple average method. Pattern of data: ST, stationary; T, trended; S, seasonal; C, cyclical. Time horizon: S, short term (less than three months); I, intermediate; L, long term Type of model: TS, time series; C, causal. Seasonal: s, length of seasonality. of Variable: V, number variables.

  20. The series is nonrandom Task: Try a nine-week moving average, it would be better, because the large-order moving average pays very little attention to the large fluctuations in the data series

  23. Exponential Smoothing Methods

  24. = smoothing constant (0< <1) 2.1 Simple (Single) Exponential Smoothing Based on averaging (smoothing) past values of a series in a decreasing exponential manner, with more weight being given to the more recent observations. New forecast = [α x (new observation)] + [(1- α) x (old forecast)]

  25. Comparison of Smoothing Constants

  26. Starting the algorithm • An initial value for the old smoothed series must be set: • To set the first estimate = the first observation. • Another method: To use the average of the first 5 or 6 observations.

  27. Example 4.5 Quarters Year 2000 1 500 * 2 350 * 3 250 * 4 400 2001 5 450 * 6 350 * 7 200 * 8 300 2002 9 350 * 10 200 * 11 150 * 12 400 2003 13 550 * 14 350 * 15 250 * 16 550 2004 17 550 * 18 400 * 19 350 * 20 600 2005 21 750 * 22 500 * 23 400 * 24 650 2006 25 850 • The actual sales for a Company for the years 2000 to 2006 are demonstrated in the Table. • The data for the first quarter of 2006 will be used as the test part to help determine the best value of α among the two considered.

  37. Starting the algorithm • The weights can be selected as in the single exponential smoothing method. • A grid of values could be developed, then selecting the ones producing the lowest MSE. • To begin the algorithm: One approach is to set the first estimate equal to the first observation, the trend is then estimated to equal zero. A second approach is to use the average of the first six observations , the trend is the slope of a line fit to these observations. • Minitab develops a regression equation, and uses constants from the equation as initial estimates for the level and the trend.
