• business, management, economics, environment, real estate, physiology;
Various fields of research
• uncomplicated combination of rules, limited number of variables, fixed structure, atheoretical;
Simple models
• newer, adaptive, include more variables, accounts for attributes of external environment.
Complex models
What is the difference?

What does it tell?• similar outcomes can be achieved from
different models, i.e equifinality (Byrne et.al., 2010);
Overall findings
• make forecasts more user-friendly;• develop and improve simpler forecasting
techniques and/or simplify more complex structures;
Simplicity in modelling
• Keep it Sensibly/Sophisticatedly Simple (Zellner, 1991; Kennedy, 2002).KISS
