A1 Alaminos Aguilera, David A1 Salas-Compás, María Belén A1 Fernández-Gámez, Manuel Ángel K1 Macroeconomía K1 Producto interior bruto K1 Aprendizaje automático (Inteligencia artificial) K1 Computación cuántica AB Precise macroeconomic forecasting is one of the major aims of economic analysisbecause it facilitates a timely assessment of future economic conditions and can be usedfor monetary, fiscal, and economic policy purposes. Numerous works have studied thebehavior of the macroeconomic situation and have developed models to forecast them.However, the existing models have limitations, and the literature demands more researchon the subject given that the accuracy of the models is still poor, and they have only beenexpanded for developed countries. This paper presents a comparison of methodologiesfor GDP growth forecasting and, consequently, new forecasting models of GDP growthhave been constructed with the ability to estimate accurately future scenarios globally. Asample of 70 countries was used, which has allowed the use of sample combinations thatconsider the regional heterogeneity of the warning indicators. To the sample under study,different methods have been applied to achieve a high accuracy model, comparingQuantum Computing with Deep Learning procedures, being Deep Neural Decision Trees,which has provided excellent prediction results thanks to large-scale processing withmini-batch-based learning and can be connected to any larger Neural Networks model.Our model has a great potential impact on the adequacy of macroeconomic policy,providing tools that help to achieve macroeconomic and monetary stability at the globallevel, and creating new methodological opportunities for GDP growth forecasting.
