Methods for Forecasting Seasonal Items With Intermittent Demand Chris Harvey University of Portland

Overview What are seasonal items? Assumptions The (π,p,P) policy Software Architecture Simulation Results Further work

Seasonal Items Many items are not demanded year round – Christmas ornaments – Flip flop sandals Demand is sporadic – Intermittent Evaluate policies that minimize overstock, while maximizing the ability to meet demand.

Demand Quantity of a Representative Seasonal Item

Assumptions Time till demand event is r.v. T, has Geometric distribution – T ~ Geometric(p i ) where p i = Pr(demand event in season) – T ~ Geometric(p o ) where p o = Pr(demand out of season) Geometric distribution defined for n = 0,1,2,3… where r.v. X is defined as the number (n) of Bernoulli trials until a success. pmf

Assumptions Size of demand event is r.v. D, has a shifted Poisson distribution – D ~ Poisson( λ i )+1 where λ i + 1 = E(demand size in season) – D ~ Poisson( λ o )+1 where λ o +1 = E(demand out of season) Poisson distribution defined as Where r.v. X is number of successes (n) in a time period. Pmf

New Simulation Structure Organization – Modular – Interchangeable – Bottom up debugging Global Data Structure – Very fast runtime – [[lists]] nested in [lists] Lists may contain many types: vectors, strings, floats, functions… Main simulation: Data structure aware Main simulation: Data structure aware Director for Each Method: Data Structure ignorant Director for Each Method: Data Structure ignorant Generic Function definitions Generic call args Generic return args Specific call args Specifc return args

Future Work Bayesian Updating – Geometric and Poisson parameters are not fixed – Parameters have a probability distribution based on observed data – Parameters are continuously updated with new information Modular nature of new simulation allows fast testing of new updating methods
