Data Pipeline

# Historical data extraction
query = """
SELECT DATE(timestamp) as date,
       SUM(quantity) as daily_demand,
       EXTRACT(DOW FROM DATE(timestamp)) as day_of_week,
       EXTRACT(MONTH FROM DATE(timestamp)) as month,
       -- Seasonal and promotional features
FROM inventory_movements 
WHERE sku = $1 AND movement_type = 'outbound'
GROUP BY DATE(timestamp)
"""

Model Architecture

ensemble_weights = {
    'random_forest': 0.3,      # 30% weight
