Methods and systems for generating forecasts using an ensemble online demand generation forecaster

A non-transitory computer readable medium comprising instructions which, when executed by a computer processor, enables the computer processor to perform a method for generating final prediction data, comprising:

• generating, by a prediction generator, validation prediction data using a prediction model;
• making a first determination that the validation prediction data comprises unexplained variance data;
• in response to making the first determination:
• isolating unexplained variance data from the validation prediction data;
• generating initial prediction data using the prediction model;
• isolating prediction trend data from the initial prediction data;
• and
• obtaining the final prediction data by summing the prediction trend data with the unexplained variance data.
