An inventory control system is configured to perform operations including generating an initial demand matrix and generating a plurality of synthetic demand matrices. The operations also include identifying sparse demand vectors in the synthetic demand matrices, where each sparse demand vector represents synthetic demand that satisfies a sparse demand criteria. The operations also include modifying synthetic demand values based on the sparse demand vectors to generate filtered synthetic demand matrices. The operations include generating estimated demand for a target period for each inventory item based on the filtered synthetic demand matrices and the initial demand matrix and comparing the estimated demand to inventory data to determine whether one or more inventory items should be acquired. The operations include generating and sending a demand signal to cause the one or more inventory items to be acquired.
