Abstract

In the current rapidly changing economic market environment, accurately forecasting sales is crucial for optimizing enterprise resources and enhancing market competitiveness. Existing prediction models often fail to fully handle complex data relationships and long-term dependencies, which limits the accuracy and practicality of the forecasts. To address these limitations, this study introduces a composite model that integrates deep learning with Random Forest (RF) to significantly enhance predictive performance. This model employs Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) to capture complex features of time-series data and uses Bidirectional Long Short-Term Memory network (BiLSTM) to manage dependencies in data both before and after, while RF reduce overfitting through multiple decision trees and achieve feature fusion through joint training, thereby optimizing prediction accuracy. Experimental results demonstrate that this model outperforms traditional models on all evaluation metrics, particularly showing exceptional adaptability in highly volatile markets with its accuracy and stability.
