Data Mining Time Series Strange Forecast

Hi,

I'm going through the tutorials for Data Mining and have issues with the
time series example. I built the model and started looking at some of the
forecasts. Some of them looked plausible, others like R750 North America
Amount are so far off that it makes the entire model suspect. In two steps
the amount skyrockets to 94,389 from a peak of 38,339 as the last actual
value. There is nothing in the history of that model that would support such
a huge spike.

Can someone please tell me I'm reading this incorrectly or is there a
problem with this algorithm?

BTW, I'm using the latest CTP.

Thanks

 

There are some known issues where the TS algo starts to osciallate that we
have fixed since the last CTP build and are continually tuning the
algorithms. You should check the deviation along with the predictions -if
the deviations start getting too high, then the algorithm is telling you it
is getting unsure of the results.
