QUANTILE HURDLE MODELING SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR SPARSE TIME SERIES PREDICTION APPLICATIONS

Abstract:

A server computer may receive and process a plurality of time series data to generate sparse datasets based on sparsity levels. The server computer applies a time series forecasting model to each respective subset of previous data points of the sparse datasets increasingly at the first time granularity to generate a set of prediction values and a set of residuals; applies a regression model to the set of the prediction residuals to generate a set of adjusted residuals for the sparse datasets; and generates a visualized explanation based on the set of the prediction values and the set of adjusted residuals for one or more of the sparse datasets.
