... A well known problem with EOP prediction is that a prediction strategy proved to be the best for some testing period and prediction length may not remain as such for other period of time. In this paper we consider possible strategies to combine EOP predictions made using different analysis techniques to obtain a final prediction with the best accuracy corresponding to the least prediction error between input predictions. ...
