Vcops Capacity Analysis algorithms

[serlal]

Hello,

I would like to ask whether someone knows what are the particular algorithms that Vcops uses to implement capacity forecasting. Are they simple trending algorithms based on regression analysis for example or something more advanced, like combined neural networks, etc?

Thank you!

It uses linear regression.

Its far more than just linear regression - there are at least 8 algorithms that run and compete to interepret the data:
