How do you know your time series problem is predictable? This is a difficult question with time series forecasting. There is a tool called a random walk that can help you understand the pred... Read more
The ARIMA model for time series analysis and forecasting can be tricky to configure. There are 3 parameters that require estimation by iterative trial and error from reviewing diagnostic plo... Read more

The Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average Model, or ARIMA for short is a standard statistical model for time series forecast and analysis. Along with its development, the authors Box and... Read more
The residual errors from forecasts on a time series provide another source of information that we can model. Residual errors themselves form a time series that can have temporal structure. A... Read more
A popular and widely used statistical method for time series forecasting is the ARIMA model. ARIMA is an acronym that stands for AutoRegressive Integrated Moving Average. It is a class of mo... Read more
Forecast errors on time series regression problems are called residuals or residual errors. Careful exploration of residual errors on your time series prediction problem can tell you a lot a... Read more
6 Ways to Plot Your Time Series Data with Python Time series lends itself naturally to visualization. Line plots of observations over time are popular, but there is a suite of other plots th... Read more
Autoregression is a time series model that uses observations from previous time steps as input to a regression equation to predict the value at the next time step. It is a very simple idea t... Read more
Time series is different from more traditional classification and regression predictive modeling problems. The temporal structure adds an order to the observations. This imposed order means... Read more
