When our lab students (Xiaoqian Wang Bohan Zhang) went to conferences alone, it was the perfect time for PIs to sit down and do some research ourselves.

There are some additions. As an academic, I can always take a day off to read papers like a real scholar. I can also use my holidays to write grants.

Our IJF paper "Forecast Combinations: An over 50-year review" is among the top five trending papers in management science. Congratulations to Xiaoqian Wang Rob J Hyndman @[email protected] and Yanfei Kang >>>Read more doi.org/10.1016/j.ijfo…

In the book "Forecasting with Artificial Intelligence", we discuss the state of the art feature based methods in model selection and combination when forecasting large collections of time series with reference to open source software implementations doi.org/10.1007/978-3-…

A Chinese translation of FPP 3/e is now available online at otexts.com/fpp3cn/ A print edition will be available soon. #Rstats #forecasting Thanks to Yanfei Kang and Feng Li for leading the translation team.

KLLAB members will attend #ICDM2023 in Shanghai! We are honoured to present two papers in the AI4TS workshop. 1. Infinite combinations based on Dirichlet process 2. Probabilistic forecast reconciliation with KL divergence regularization ai4ts.github.io/icdm2023 See you there!🙌

Can we have forecast combinations with infinitely many models? A preprint is available. Comments are most welcome!

Went to stat conference: too theorectical, no one will use it in practice; went to data mining conference: where are all the theorectical foundations? A tale of two tastes.

As an academic, being rejected is normal. But having a desk rejection in the morning is still brutal for me. - Americano with milk, please - No, Americano does not serve with milk.

This is the second day of 2024. My Google Scholar notified me I have 22 new citations since 2024. How could that happen?😇😇😇

Come join us June 30 - July 3 in Dijon, France for the 44th International Symposium on Forecasting! forecasters.org

My academic brother invited me to organize a conference session. The organizer list on the conference web pag is like this😂😂😂😂 $ whereami

The 2024 European Seminar on Bayesian Econometrics (ESOBE) will be hosted by Örebro University, Sweden, and takes place on August 22-23. oru.se/institutioner/… Deadline for submission: May 26, 2024.

I asked my son what the biggest number is with three nines? He quickly answered 9^9^9. Then he asked what exactly the number was. I calculated with Python and totally lost. Interestingly I found Python DOES NOT proceed left to right with math 3^3^3 = 3^(3^3) != (3^3)^3.

In France, even fonts could go striking.

Within < 1 year our forecast combination review paper received 100 cites👏👏👏 In the paper, Xiaoqian Wang Rob J Hyndman @[email protected] Yanfei Kang and I carefully surveyed simple to nonlinear combinations for point/probabilistic forecasts with different dialects in ML/DL doi.org/10.1016/j.ijfo…

Thank you to everyone who organized, planned, presented and attended #ISFconf2024! We had 555+ registrations from over 35 countries, 130 student participants and over 375 presentations. Looking ahead to #ISFconf2025 in Beijing, hope to see you there! isf.forecasters.org/overview/about…

Having a naughty baby during conference? Now is available for a change at the airport teminal 2 just after your arrival.

How does local information affect stock forecasting for non-institutional investors? We examine day-ahead forecasting asymmetry with over 300 million postings pertaining to 2,239 listed firms in China. Why is that important? Read more in Contemporary Accounting Research doi.org/10.1111/1911-3…
