Resumen
We present a machine learning approach for applying (multiple) temporal aggregation in time series forecasting settings. The method utilizes a classification model that can be used to either select the most appropriate temporal aggregation level for producing forecasts or to derive weights to properly combine the forecasts generated at various levels. The classifier consists a meta-learner that correlates key time series features with forecasting accuracy, thus enabling a dynamic, data-driven selection or combination. Our experiments, conducted in two large data sets of slow- and fast-moving series, indicate that the proposed meta-learner can outperform standard forecasting approaches.
