The times series of sales, prices and advertising campaigns are modelled to fit into feedforward multilayer perceptron networks that are trained by the back-propagation algorithm. Several net topologies and training parameters have been compared. For enhancement the back-propagation algorithm has been parallelized in different manners. One batch and two on-line training algorithms are implemented on parallel systems with both the runtime environments PARIX and PVM. The research will lead to a practical forecasting system for supermarkets. |
