This paper presents a novel statistical technique called signature transforms to accurately forecast freight transportation marketplace rates. The approach combines two key elements: the universal nonlinearity property, which linearizes the feature space, and the signature kernel, which enables efficient comparison of time series data similarities. This allows for precise identification of seasonality and regime switching in the forecasting process.

This paper helps us better predict how much it costs to move goods around the country. To do this, researchers created a new way to look at patterns in data that helps them make more accurate predictions. They used two special tools: one makes the complex math problems easier to solve and the other lets them compare different sets of data quickly. This makes it possible to see when things change or follow regular patterns.
