Machine Learning and AI have emerged as transformational methodologies with a multitude of applications—facial recognition, medical diagnosing and self-driving cars—to name but a few. But can Machine Learning be used to improve your forecasting? Recent forecasting research suggests that it can. In this webinar, Sarah Darin overviews the basics and benefits of automated Extreme Gradient Boosting (XG Boost) an effective and accurate Machine Learning algorithm recently implemented in Forecast Pro.

Si deseas mejorar tu proceso de pronósticos, es fundamental realizar un seguimiento de la precisión de los pronósticos generados. Con sólo medir y monitorear el desempeño, tu equipo puede evaluar qué tan bien están haciendo las cosas, comprender qué funciona y qué no, e identificar dónde se puede mejorar el proceso de pronósticos. En esta sesión, Armando González, director de FBP Systems, explica cómo realizar un seguimiento de la precisión del pronóstico y aplicar las mejores prácticas que marcarán la diferencia en su propia organización. Este seminario web está siendo presentado por FBP Systems, en colaboración con Business Forecast Systems, para apoyar a la comunidad de pronósticos de habla hispana.
