Abstract
Systems and methods for partitioning forecast items into segments, or groups, based on an attribute. Once partitioned, segments are aggregated based on a predetermined memory size limit using an aggregation method. Aggregation methods include methods for providing segments that have a similar number of records. Segmentation is further enhanced by including variance reduction gain as a metric for selecting the order of attributes.
