Course details


Time Series Decomposition: This unit focuses on breaking down time series data into its component parts, including trend, seasonality, and residuals, to better understand and forecast supply chain demand. •
ARIMA Modeling: This unit introduces students to the Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average (ARIMA) model, a popular statistical technique used for forecasting time series data, particularly in supply chain management. •
Exponential Smoothing (ES): This unit covers the basics of Exponential Smoothing, a family of methods used for forecasting time series data, including Simple Exponential Smoothing (SES), Holt's Method, and Holt-Winters Method. •
Seasonal Decomposition: This unit delves deeper into the seasonal decomposition of time series data, helping students to identify and forecast seasonal patterns in supply chain demand. •
Machine Learning for Time Series Forecasting: This unit explores the application of machine learning algorithms, such as neural networks and deep learning, to improve the accuracy of time series forecasting in supply chain management. •
Supply Chain Demand Forecasting: This unit focuses on the application of time series analysis techniques to forecast demand in supply chains, including the use of historical data, external factors, and statistical models. •
Big Data Analytics for Supply Chain Forecasting: This unit introduces students to the use of big data analytics, including data mining and text mining, to improve the accuracy of supply chain demand forecasting. •
Time Series Analysis with R: This unit teaches students how to apply time series analysis techniques using the R programming language, a popular tool for data analysis in supply chain management. •
Forecasting with Ensemble Methods: This unit covers the use of ensemble methods, such as bagging and boosting, to combine the predictions of multiple models and improve the accuracy of supply chain demand forecasting. •
Supply Chain Risk Management: This unit explores the application of time series analysis techniques to manage supply chain risks, including demand uncertainty, supply chain disruptions, and price volatility.
