General correcting formula of forecasting?

Harin, Alexander (2009): General correcting formula of forecasting?

Abstract

A general correcting formula of forecasting (as a framework for long-use and standardized forecasts) is proposed. The formula provides new forecasting resources and areas of application including economic forecasting.
