Introduction to Time Series Forecasting With Python Discover How to Prepare Data and Develop Models to Predict the Future Time Series Problems are Important Time series forecasting is an important area of machine learning that is often neglected. It is important because there are so many prediction problems that involve a time component. These problems […]
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 that important assumptions about the consistency of those observations needs to be handled specifically. For example, when modeling, there are assumptions that the summary statistics of observations are consistent. […]
Time series forecasting is a difficult problem. Unlike classification and regression, time series data also adds a time dimension which imposes an ordering of observations. This turns rows into a sequence which requires careful and specific handling. In this post, you will discover the top books for time series analysis and forecasting in R. These […]
