摘要

The increasing attention to Big Data Analytics (BDA) in Supply Chain Management (SCM) stems from its versatile applications, encompassing customer behaviour analysis, trend analysis, and demand prediction. This paper aims to explore the potential of predictive BDA applications in supply chain demand forecasting and to pinpoint gaps in existing knowledge. In this proposed work, a time series predictive big data analytics using SARIMA, Prophet and ensemble model is proposed. Further to achieve an improved prediction accuracy, optimal parameters were identified using manual and grid search methods. In addition, geographical feature is extracted using KMeans clustering to understand any underlying patterns. Finally, an ensemble model is proposed that integrates heterogeneous models (SARIMA, Prophet), to achieve improved performance. The experiments were evaluated using five node Spark clusters deployed in the cloud. The results exhibit that the proposed ensemble approach using Linear regression achieves the lowest RMSE of 30.76.
