Credits
First, huge credit goes to Sean J. Taylor, Benjamin Letham, and co., the authors of Prophet package. This package and the algorithm literally have revolutionalized the world of Time Series Forecasting, have made it possible for many people without deep background in the forecasting to get into the field and use it to help making their business decisions. Thank you!
