Thomas Setzer chaired the stream “Descriptive, Diagnostic, and Predictive Analytics”, which featured presentations on new methodological and practice-oriented analytical approaches. As part of this stream, Veronika Wachslander presented initial analytical results of a new methodology to determine weights for forecast combinations in a talk titled “An Ensemble-Based Decorrelation Strategy for Learning Robust Forecast Combination Weights Using Data Subsampling.”
In addition to technical presentations, the conference included an excursion to explore Vienna and the surrounding area – our chair took this opportunity to go on a guided city tour of Vienna and visit Schloss Hof.
A heartfelt thank you to the University of Vienna and the organizing team for these impressive and eventful days!
