Hi Guys

 

I set up a custom model (multiple linear regression model) in SAS Forecast Studio to get some coefficients for a few independent variables. Just trying to understand how SAS compute the forecast values becuase I did not put in any leading values for any independent variables. What is the equation used for this model?

 

Below is the code I copied from studio for the model of created, and also the prameter estimates in the attached file.

 

Thanks in advance.

Hello -

If future values of independent variables are not included in the input data set, then the system will forecast those independent values using ESM. See STOCHASTIC statement of the HPFENGINE procedure for more information. SAS Forecast Studio will use future values of independent variables if they are included in the input data set.

Thanks,

Udo

Thanks udo. That answered by question.

 

I will check STOCHASTIC to find more info.
