We propose a new method of randomized forecasting (RF-method), which operates with
models described by systems of linear ordinary differential equations with random parameters.
The RF-method is based on entropy-robust estimation of the probability density functions (PDFs)
of model parameters and measurement noises. The entropy-optimal estimator uses a limited
amount of data. The method of randomized forecasting is applied toWorld population prediction.
Ensembles of entropy-optimal prognostic trajectories of World population and their probability
characteristics are generated. We show potential preferences of the proposed method in comparison
with existing methods.
