The use of modern regression and machine learning techniques can improve predictive accuracy compared to traditional log-transformed ordinary least squares, as well as resolving issues with bias and transformation. The combination of multiple models in an ensemble and cross-validation can further increase accuracy. These techniques are discussed in detail and are applied to an extensive set of software sustainment data for 192 Army systems. Results include models based on release type, software changes, and categories.
