Fast ES-RNN: A GPU Implementation of the ES-RNN Algorithm

7 Jul 2019  ·  Andrew Redd, Kaung Khin, Aldo Marini ·

Due to their prevalence, time series forecasting is crucial in multiple domains. We seek to make state-of-the-art forecasting fast, accessible, and generalizable. ES-RNN is a hybrid between classical state space forecasting models and modern RNNs that achieved a 9.4% sMAPE improvement in the M4 competition. Crucially, ES-RNN implementation requires per-time series parameters. By vectorizing the original implementation and porting the algorithm to a GPU, we achieve up to 322x training speedup depending on batch size with similar results as those reported in the original submission.
