The only thing I learned in grade school that was of great value, was taking Typing in high school. There I learned to touch type. If there is a keyboard involved, touch typing is invaluable. What is interesting, after you learn the keys, you start learning words. Then you type words instead...
People were asking advice on what to major in etc. I created a thread with my experience starting with a BS in math only to realize engineering was what I should have chosen. At 30 I obtained a ME from C-MU which corrected that and worked as a senior structures analysis at Pratt & Whitney. My...
Did anyone in chemistry class shoot water out of a pipette? It would shoot a needle of water great distance (>10') with no turbulence. We would prank each other because you could wet someone's shirt down and they would never notice the momentum of the flow. The throw distance given the...
This is a prediction that is made every day.
If I do a back test assemble a curve composed of each days' prediction, I get fair results.
However, if I smooth this backtest curve, I get fantastic results.
So what I need to do is take today's prediction and the prediction time history...
Thanks for the reply!
Yes, it s a window that moves along and makes the Next Prediction.
As far as the smoothing problem, just think of any non-periodic signal with noise - they all have this problem.
First, I have no access to advanced suites of math functions, I have to write my own -...
I wish it wasn't out of desperation that I'm making this first post!
I have a neural network that is making predictions, the next 5 time points per training.
Back testing consists of appending these 5 point sets together to produce a data set that spans time over a much longer period...
