Development of data modification method for optimization of forecasting performance

Dynamic nature of influencing parameters on market variations prevents decision makers to have a broad vision about possible future changes as an important factor in an organization survival. A precise forecast of both price and demand is a vital issue to illustrate market changes, and prosperity of...
