Coupling simulation and machine learning for predictive analytics in supply chain management

Résumé

Predictive analytics is the approach to business analytics that answers the question of what might happen in the future. Although predictive information is critical for making forward-looking decisions, traditional approaches struggle to cope with the increasing uncertainty and complexity that characterise modern supply chains. Simulation is limited by insufficient timeliness, while machine learning is constrained by poor interpretability and data scarcity. Inspired by the complementary nature of simulation and machine learning, an integrated predictive analytics approach is proposed and applied to a humanitarian supply chain. By coupling simulation and machine learning, predictive models can be developed with limited historical data, and pre-crisis performance assessment can be performed to facilitate timely and informed decisions. The proposed approach enables managers to gain valuable insights into the complex evolution of the uncertain future, which also opens up the possibility of further integration with optimisation and digital twins.
