Bayesian Approach for Sales Time Series Forecasting

#artificialintelligence 

In our previous post, we showed the examples of using linear models and machine learning approach for forecasting sales time series. Sometimes we need to forecast not only more probable values of sales but also their distribution. Especially we need it in the risk analysis for assessing different risks related to sales dynamics. In this case we need to take into account sales distributions and dependencies between sales time series features (e.g. One can consider sales as a stochastic variable with some marginal distributions.
