Hello,
I am trying to emulate a Croston by using exponential smoothing on the size and interval components. I seem to get success in matching SAS’ High Performance Forecasting package except for one situation so far. The situation is when there are multiple leading zeros. In this situation the size component matches but not the interval component. Do you know of any special rules about handling a Croston when there are …

… the same time consider multiple constraints in an optimal way. Transportation capacity(multiple modes), storage capacity, handling capacity As we know this cannot be done optimally with a heuristic. Heuristic rules can be devised to consider these constraints locally but not globally. So there lies the problem, which leads to many consultants going with optimization as it can consider multiple constraints. There are 2 basic theoretical scenarios to consider(many more in the real world). Shortage of stock and excess of stock. In the shortage scenario, as you said, an optimizer will send all stock to the first option …

Sure, such situation is forcing my hand in to considering voting for Trump. I am not even a fan of him but i have choose the lesser evil at the end of the day..

Biden and Kamala intend to hand over as many jobs as possible to foreign workers. It is a strange state of affairs where even Republicans (well really only Trump), actually are more

… point of view it’s unethical and violates my personal standard of ethics. Your analogy with the car is off base because we are talking about software. Getting something mechanical serviced is not the same. After all, they don’t let you download all the software controlling the car and hand it over to JiffyLube to service it (not that they could service software). Believe me, I have my issues with Oracle and yes as a customer I do have the legal right to download the software while I’m covered under a support/maintenance agreement. However, if these 3rd …

… topic. When we discuss slavery with blacks, we find that the average knowledge level is deficient. Among other races, the intermediate knowledge level is also low but not as common as for blacks (on average). However, blacks think they know more than other groups on the topic. But knowledge does not come from the race. And it comes from either first-hand experience or the study of the topic.
For example, you said that blacks don’t think about slavery because it’s not part of their culture. This implies that blacks historically did not practice slavery. But they …
