This paper presents a rigurous framework for evaluating alternative forecasting methods for Chilean industrial … production and sales. While nonlinear features appear to be important for forecasting the very short term, simple univariate … linear models perform about as well for almost every forecasting horizon …

produce large reductions in the out-of-sample prediction mean squared error and provides a useful alternative to forecasting …
