英文摘要:
This paper considers the Split-Then-Combine (STC) approach (Arroyo and de Juan, 2014) to combine forecasts inside the simplex space, the sample space of positive weights adding up to one. As it turns out, the simplicial statistic given by the center of the simplex compares favorably against the fixed-weight, average forecast. Besides, we also develop a Combine-After-Selection (CAS) method to get rid of redundant forecasters. We apply these two approaches to make out-of-sample one-step ahead combinations and subcombinations of forecasts for several economic variables. This methodology is particularly useful when the sample size is smaller than the number of forecasts, a case where other methods (e.g., Least Squares (LS) or Principal Component Analysis (PCA)) are not applicable.

中文摘要:
本文考虑了在单纯形空间内组合预测的分裂-然后组合(STC)方法(Arroyo和de Juan,2014),即正权重加总为1的样本空间。事实证明,由单纯形中心给出的单纯形统计与固定权重的平均预测相比是有利的。此外,我们还开发了一种组合后选择(CAS)方法,以消除冗余预测。我们应用这两种方法对多个经济变量的预测进行抽样提前一步组合和子组合。当样本量小于预测数量时,这种方法特别有用,在这种情况下,其他方法(如最小二乘法(LS)或主成分分析(PCA))不适用。
