Time series forecasting: double exponential smoothing

The data is the file zurich.txt from http://statistik.mathematik.uni-wuerzburg.de/timeseries/index.php.

The dashed curve are the observed values. The blue curve are the predicted values and it is computed by the following rules:

Initial values:

[math]\displaystyle{ S_0 = y_0 }[/math]

[math]\displaystyle{ b_0 = y_1-y_0 }[/math]

Then, the values are iteratively computed by

[math]\displaystyle{ S_t = \alpha\cdot y_t + (1-\alpha)\cdot(S_{t-1} + b_{t-1}); }[/math]

[math]\displaystyle{ b_t = \gamma\cdot(S_t - S_{t-1}) + (1-\gamma)\cdot b_{t-1}; }[/math]
