Time series Forecasting in Python & R, Part 2 (Forecasting ) | Sandeep Pawar

In the second part of this blog series on forecasting I discuss forecasting steps, evaluation of forecasting methods, model selection, combinining models for robust and accurate forecasting and forecast uncertainty.

Hi there, great articles. I really enjoyed reading your second part, especially. I am trying to learn this myself and I am trying to figure out the ensembling part. You mention a function called fc_combo there however it is not in your jupyter notebook. Would it be possible to share that function as well?

Hey, thanks for this post! I have a short question: I have daily sales data and want to create a seasonal naive baseline forecasts equal to the sales values observed the week before. How do I have to choose my seasonal period in that case? I would assume it is 7, but I'm not really sure.
Thanks in advance!
