    Co-author here: all in due time. Next iteration we will include LigthGBM, XGBoost, and newer DL models like TFT and NHiTS.

    SeasonalNaive is 20% more accurate than Prophet or NeuralProphet and 366 times faster for next-day electricity demand forecasting.

    NeuralProphet is the successor-extension of Prophet, and it aims to provide Prophet with neural networks and autoregressive terms. The paper can be found here ( https://arxiv.org/a…

    I think the problem arises from the datasets used to evaluate the performance of the models. In the case of Prophet's paper, only one time series is used (The number of events crea…
