The first European Symposium on Time Series Prediction (TSP) is a new event in the fields of neural networks, statistics and Econometrics. It will be held in Espoo (Helsinki), one of the most innovative towns in Europe. Contributions are welcome (see topics and call for papers for details).
Radisson SAS hotel is full, so participants should book to some other hotel in the Helsinki area. The easiest way to find the hotels is from this link. From the list, the best price quality ratio is probably offered by the Arthur hotel near the railway station.
The registeration is now open! Click Registeration from the menu in the left.
Extended deadline is December 4th. BUT abstract and title have to be submitted before December 1st!
The data set is now available and you can download it here. The number of samples in the time series is 875.
The goal of the competition is the prediction of the 50 next values (or more) of the time series. The evaluation of the performance will be done using the MSE obtained from the prediction of both the 15 and the 50 next values.
Please submit your paper using the submission pages of the website and your prediction by email to lendasse@hut.fi (with "ESTSP2007 Competition" as a subject). The deadline for the paper and the prediction has been extended to November 29th.
Notice that in order to participate to the competition, a paper has to be submitted to ESTSP2007. But in order to submit a paper to ESTSP'07, it is not mandatory to participate to the competition! All papers related to the time series prediction are welcome! (see scope and topic for details)
