  • Deep factor models with random effects for forecasting
    Patent number: 11537874
    Abstract: Techniques for forecasting using deep factor models with random effects are described. A forecasting framework combines the strengths of both classical and neural forecasting methods in a global-local framework for forecasting multiple time series. A global model captures the common latent patterns shared by all time series, while a local model explains the variations at the individual level.
