Nate Silver’s best-selling book The Signal and The Noise – Why So Many Predictions Fail – But Some Don’t is about Big Data.
More important, it’s about the challenge of filtering truth (i.e the signal) from nonsense (i.e the noise).
With engaging examples from worlds as diverse as baseball, politics, poker and weather forecasting, the book provides a number of innovative and practical lessons that are extendable and very applicable to supply chain forecasting.
The lessons in our white paper – which draw their inspiration from The Signal and The Noise - will change how you think about forecasting.
We believe they have the potential to dramatically improve the forecasting process for any business that depends upon realistic projections of the future.
