Outrageous Fortunes false By:Daniel Altman Published on 2011-01-18 by Macmillan A Harvard-trained economist's startling predictions reveal critical challenges in the decades ahead, helping individuals, businesses, and governments to make smarter decisions As individuals, companies, and countries struggle to recover from the economic crisis, many are narrowly focused on forecasts for the next week, month, or quarter. Yet they should be asking what the global economy will look like in the years to come—where will the long-term risks and opportunities arise? These are the questions that Daniel Altman confronts in his provocative and indispensable book. The fate of the global economy, Altman argues, will be determined by deeper factors than those that move markets from moment to moment. His incisive analysis brings together hidden trends, societal pressures, and policy endgames to make twelve surprising but logical predictions about the years ahead. And his forecasts for the future ra...

Practical Time Series Forecasting false By:Galit Shmueli Published on 2016-07-11 by PRACTICAL TIME SERIES FORECASTING is a hands-on introduction to quantitative forecasting of time series. Quantitative forecasting, known as forecasting analytics, is an important component of decision making in a wide range of areas and across many business functions including economic forecasting, workload projections, sales forecasts, and transportation demand. Forecasting is also widely used in automated applications such as forecasting flight delays, web keyword search volume, and weather. Forecasting is heavily used in many areas outside of business, such as in demography and climatology. This book introduces readers to the most popular statistical models and data mining algorithms used in practice. It covers issues relating to different steps of the forecasting process, from goal definition through data collection, visualization, pre-processing, modeling, performance evaluation to implementation ...

Forecasting Demand and Supply of Doctoral Scientists and Engineers: false By:Office of Scientific and Engineering Personnel,National Research Council,Policy and Global Affairs Published on 2000-07-31 by National Academies Press This report is the summary of a workshop conducted by the National Research Council in order to learn from both forecast makers and forecast users about improvements that can be made in understanding the markets for doctoral scientists and engineers. The workshop commissioned papers examined (1) the history and problems with models of demand and supply for scientists and engineers, (2) objectives and approaches to forecasting models, (3) margins of adjustment that have been neglected in models, especially substitution and quality, (4) the presentation of uncertainty, and (5) whether these forecasts of supply and demand are worthwhile, given all their shortcomings. The focus of the report was to provide guidance to the NSF and to scholars in this area on how mod...

Revenue Forecasting--How is it Done? Results from a Survey of Low-Income Countries false By:Annette Kyobe,Stephan Danninger Published on 2005-02-01 by International Monetary Fund This paper takes stock of revenue forecasting practices in low-income countries, and provides a comprehensive and condensed account of the revenue forecasting process. Based on a new dataset on 34 low-income countries, it catalogues forecasting practices and procedures from inception until budget submission, focusing primarily on institutional aspects and processes. The paper also synthesizes three key characteristics of forecasting practices, formality, organizational simplicity, and transparency, and empirically explores their determinants. High levels of country corruption are associated with less formal and less transparent forecasts. Past IMF involvement in a country increases the formality of the process, but does not improve public access to information. This Book was ranked at 28 by Google Books for ...

Forecasting Mortality in Developed Countries true By:E. Tabeau,Anneke van den Berg Jeths,Christopher Heathcote,Nederlands Interdisciplinair Demografisch Instituut Published on 2001-02-28 by Springer Science & Business Media Information on future mortality trends is essential for population forecasts, public health policy, actuarial studies, and many other purposes. Realising the importance of such needs, this volume contains contributions to the theory and practice of forecasting mortality in the relatively favourable circumstances in developed countries of Western Europe. In this context techniques from mathematical statistics and econometrics can provide useful descriptions of past mortality. The naive forecast obtained by extrapolating a fitted model may give as good a forecast as any but forecasting by extrapolation requires careful justification since it assumes the prolongation of historical conditions. On the other hand, whilst it is generally accepted that scientific and o...
