Although many approaches have been developed to accurately predict the demand of products based on their historical sales data, demand prediction is still a complex issue especially when there is a domain shift between training and testing data. In this work, we study three examples of domain shifts in the context of retail: outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, opening a new store, and introducing a new product.

This talk is one of a series of three exciting presentations given by graduate students as part of their research work at the retail innovation lab, in partnership with Couche-Tard. They will be presenting an overview of their research projects, study objectives, challenges faced, results, and their real-world application in retail. Representatives of the relevant business units from Couche-Tard will also be present.
