Motivation
 The M3-Competition: results,
conclusions and implications
(a) Statistically sophisticated or complex
methods do not necessarily provide
more accurate forecasts than simpler
ones.
(b) The relative ranking of the performance of
the various methods varies according to the
accuracy measure being used.
(c) The accuracy when various methods are
being combined outperforms, on average,
the individual methods being combined and
does very well in comparison to other
methods.

(d) The accuracy of the
