Snyder Forecasting with Exponential Smoothing The State Space Approach Forecasting with Exponential Smoothing Hyndman · Koehler · Ord · Snyder 1 ISBN 9 -783 -540-71916-8 Exponential smoothing methods have been around since the 1950s, and are the most popular forecasting methods used in business and industry. Recently, exponential smoothing has been revolutionized with the introduction of a complete modeling framework incorporating inno-vations state space models, likelihood calculation, prediction intervals and procedures for model selection. In this book, all of the important results for this framework are brought together in a coherent manner with consistent notation. In addition, many new results and extensions are introduced and several application areas are examined in detail. Rob J.
