Sales Prediction Applying Linguistic Fuzzy Logic Forecaster
Original language description
In this contribution, we focus on sales prediction by means of Linguistic Fuzzy Logic Forecaster (LFL-Forecaster). To be more specific, we compare the accu-racy of the prediction obtained by means of this method and the prediction ac-curacy of standard approaches such as extrapolation of the time series and time series decomposition into trend and seasonal component. As the benchmark, we also apply the prediction based on the last known sales and average sales in the previous period. The LFL-forecaster combines the fuzzy transform technique to extract the trend part with fuzzy natural logic in order to forecast future values. Both methods apply the principles of fuzzy sets. From the obtained results, we demonstrate that for selected time series of sales the LFL-Forecaster provides the most accurate prediction in the out-of-sample period, however even this method is prone to the changes in the length of input data and structural breaks.
