Ing. Ján Dolinský, Dr. Eng. (Tangent Works, s.r.o., CTO, Bratislava):
Automatic model building for time-series with an application in energy industry


Abstract:
In the talk, it will be explained why automatic model building for time-series has become attractive for energy industry and why they decided to develop an automatic model building engine TIM (Tangent Information Modeller). The talk will include mathematical challenges of automation in model building and some real-world deployment scenarios will be described where TIM was used to build large-scale forecasting systems. Information Criteria and Information Geometry topics will also be discussed as advances in this field helped to enable automatic model building of high quality models with excellent generalization capabilities.
