Abstract

This study proposes a novel method for business forecasting based on fuzzy support vector machines regression (FSVMR). By an application on sales forecasting, details of proposed method are presented including data preprocessing, kernel selection, parameters tuning and so on. The experimental result shows the method's validity.
