Cover Story: In this study, the Holt method is modified using time-varying smoothing parameters instead of fixed on time. Smoothing parameters are obtained for each observation from first-order autoregressive models. The parameters of the autoregressive models are estimated using a harmony search algorithm, and forecasts are obtained with a subsampling bootstrap approach. The main contribution of the paper is to consider time-varying smoothing parameters with autoregressive equations and use the bootstrap method in an exponential smoothing method. Real-world time series are used to show the forecasting performance of the proposed method. View this paper
