Abstract
Techniques are provided for estimating a delivery time for a product in a supply chain. One method comprises obtaining an order for at least one product; calculating a similarity-based feature and/or a proximity-based feature for the order; and applying the calculated similarity-based feature and/or the calculated proximity-based feature for the order to a machine learning engine that generates an estimated delivery time for the order, wherein the machine learning engine is trained using characteristics from historical orders. The similarity-based feature for the order can be calculated using a delivery time value of historical orders in a given order cluster where the order was assigned based on a predefined distance metric between the order and features of each order cluster. The proximity-based feature for the order can be calculated using a delivery time value of the historical orders that satisfy one or more predefined recency criteria.
