AN ENSEMBLE BASED PREDICTIVE MODELING IN FORECASTING SALES OF BIG MART

T. Leo Alexander, D. Delwin Christopher

Abstract :

 In this paper we present the analysis of various products of BigMart presented by their unique identification codes with a view of developing a predictive model for the sales of each of those products. The analysis is performed on a data set for which the past sales is provided and the prediction is made on another data set. The data has been obtained from ANALYTICS VIDHYA (http://www.analyticsvidhya.com/). We have used some basic statistical predictive models like general linear model, principle component analysis based model and other machine learning techniques like random forest, support vector machine and neural network to develop the ensemble based predictive model.
