Ensemble learning method for tourism demand forecasting
This project proposes several new ensemble learning methods to further improving the forecasting performance of the existing models. The first step of this study focuses on "bagging" which is designed to increase model robustness. Further studies pay special attention to bagging's performance on different data categories and introduce another method called "boosting" into the tourism demand forecast.
