Cataloged from PDF version of thesis. Includes bibliographical references (pages 62-65). In this thesis a methodology to construct prediction intervals for a generic black-box point forecast model is presented. The prediction intervals are learned from the forecasts of the black-box model and the actual realizations of the forecasted variable by using quantile regression on the observed prediction error distribution, the distribution of which is not assumed. An independent meta-model that runs in parallel to the original point forecast model is responsible for learning and generating the prediction intervals, thus requiring no modification to the original setup. This meta-model uses both the inputs and output of the black-box model and calculates a lower and an upper bound for each of its forecasts with the goal that a predefined percentage of future realizations are included in the interval formed by both bounds. Metrics for the performance of the meta-model are established, paying special attention to the conditional interval coverage with respect to both time and the inputs. A series of cases studies are performed to determine the capabilities of this approach and to compare it to standard practices. by Joan Aguilar Fargas.
