Businesses widely use ML for supply chain management, fraud detection, customer segmentation, and sales forecasting. However, challenges such as poor data quality, high processing costs, integration constraints, and the need for skilled professionals often hinder its implementation. Addressing these challenges is crucial to unlocking the full potential of ML and driving efficiency, profitability, and innovation. This study applies ML techniques to forecast sales of jackets and blazers at DGN Clothing, Ludhiana, a major apparel manufacturer. By analysing historical sales data, seasonal trends, and pricing variations, this research explores how ML can help businesses optimise inventory, reduce losses, and improve profitability. The study evaluates Random Forest Regression to determine the most effective model for predicting sales trends. Performance metrics such as Mean Absolute Error (MAE), R-Squared (R²), and Root Mean Squared Error (RMSE) are used to assess accuracy. The results offer actionable insights into demand fluctuations, pricing strategies, and consumer purchasing behavior, allowing businesses to make data-driven decisions. By leveraging MLbased sales forecasting, retailers can enhance stock management, minimise overproduction, and boost revenue generation. This research underscores the importance of ML in modern business analytics, demonstrating its ability to streamline processes and provide a competitive edge in the evolving apparel industry.</p> 2026-01-22T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) 2026 Journal of Advanced Research in Production and Industrial Engineering https://www.adrjournalshouse.com/index.php/production-industry-engineering/article/view/2489 Event Participation and Performance analysis Prediction 2026-01-22T06:50:34+00:00 Nisha Arora nishaarora@pcte.edu.in Vishwajeet nishaarora@pcte.edu.in Sachin Saharan nishaarora@pcte.edu.in <p>This study explores trends in participation and performance at PCTE Group of Institutes, Ludhiana, during the “Koshish 2024 Junior” cultural festival. By utilising machine learning methods, we assess student involvement in a variety of cultural activities to pinpoint the top-performing participants and comprehend the factors that influence student engagement. The research uses data gathered from the “Koshish 2024 Junior” festival, including participation logs from numerous events such as Solo Dance, Quiz, Debate, Photography, Rangoli, Group Dance, and others. We implement machine learning techniques, featuring classification models for performance evaluation and regression models for forecasting participation, to examine the connection between event type and overall performance. Additionally, this study investigates how machine learning methods can be utilised to gain insights into participation trends. Recognising these trends is essential for efficient event planning, resource management, and boosting engagement. We review historical participation data to uncover patterns and trends, applying predictive modelling to forecast performance levels. This methodology allows event organisers to make more informed decisions, aiding them in optimising schedules, allocating resources, and enhancing participant outreach strategies. Through this research, we seek to improve the accuracy of predictions related to cultural event participation, ultimately enriching the experience for both students and event organisers.</p> 2026-01-22T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) 2026 Journal of Advanced Research in Production and Industrial Engineering
