Training data routing and prediction ensembling at time series prediction system

Abstract:

An input data set with a plurality of item descriptors comprising respective time series observations is identified. A routing directive indicating a predicate to be evaluated to determine whether a particular item descriptor is to be included in a training data set for a first learning algorithm is obtained. A plurality of learning algorithms are trained using training data sets derived from the input data set according to respective routing directives, and the trained algorithms are stored.
