1. Moving Averages
2. Simple Exponential Smoothing
3. Holts exponential Smoothing
4. Winters exponential smoothing
5. Adaptive-response-rate Single exponential smoothing
All of these methods use:
Weighted average of past observations to smooth up-and-down
movements, AND
All are based on the concept that:
There is some underling pattern to the data.

Adaptive-Response-Rate Single
Exponential Smoothing (ADRES)
This method is the same as simple exponential
smoothing except that it uses a different value
(smoothing factor) for each period.
The value of is determined in such a way that it
adapts to the changes in the basic pattern of the data.
Other than its ability to adapt to changing
circumstances, this method is the same as simple
smoothing model, so it is applied to data which have
little trend or seasonality.
