Ralph David Snyder () and Roland G Shami

Journal of Forecasting, 2001, vol. 20, issue 3, pages 197-202

Abstract: A parsimonious method of exponential smoothing is introduced for time series generated from a combination of local trends and local seasonal effects. It is compared with the additive version of the Holt-Winters method of forecasting on a standard collection of real time series. Copyright © 2001 by John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
