✦ Synopsis

McKenzie's mention of Brown's contributions to exponential smoothing prompts this question: who invented the methodology? Like many other great ideas in management science, it appears that exponential smoothing was conceived by at least two researchers working independently, in this case Brown and Holt.

It is shown that the traditional choice for the initial smoothed statistics in general exponential smoothing leads to the same forecasts as the equivalent ARIMA model, provided that one uses zero starting values for the initial shocks. In addition, an initialization which uses 'backforecasts' as ini
