## Abstract Drought forecasting is a critical component of drought risk management. The paper describes an approach to drought forecasting, which makes use of Artificial Neural Network (ANN) and predicts quantitative values of drought indicesβcontinuous functions of rainfall which measure the degre

## Abstract The problem of medium to longβterm sales forecasting raises a number of requirements that must be suitably addressed in the design of the employed forecasting methods. These include long forecasting horizons (up to 52 periods ahead), a high number of quantities to be forecasted, which l
This research investigates whether prior statistical deseasonalization of data is necessary to produce more accurate neural network forecasts. Neural networks trained with deseasonalized data from Hill et al. (1996) were compared with neural networks estimated without prior deseasonalization. Both s
Two types of forecasting methods have been receiving increasing attention by electric utility forecasters. The first type, called end-use forecasting, is recognized as an approach which is well suited for forecasting during periods characterized by technological change. The method is straightforward
