Abstract
The precision of planning and decision making in Amazon is heavily reliant on sophisticated forecasting methods. These forecasts, often made independently, enable different aspects of logistic chain, such as truck scheduling or labor planning. However, in reality, they forecast values that often interact or depend on each other, or in the least contain strong correlations. We explore various methods to take these relationships into account, such as hierarchical reconciliation, combinations of forecasting and simulation, modelling input-output system constraints, as well as joint time series forecasting approaches based on diffusion models.
