Study Notes
Autoregressive Models
-
AR(1) Model:
- Formula: ( y_t = \beta_0 + \beta_1 y_{t-1} + \epsilon_t )
-
AR(2) Model:
- Formula: ( y_t = \beta_0 + \beta_1 y_{t-1} + \beta_2 y_{t-2} + \epsilon_t )
- Coefficients are fitted to minimize forecasting errors, visualized with original data as blue and AR(2) predictions in red.
ARIMA Model
-
ARIMA stands for Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average:
- Combines AR and MA models with an additional differencing step to remove trends.
- The regression model uses both AR and MA with a lag of one, denoted as:
- Formula: ( y_t = \phi_1 Z_{t-1} + \theta_1 \epsilon_{t-1} + \epsilon_t )
Summary of Time Series
- Temporal datasets can be modeled to capture patterns over time.
- Transformations can eliminate trends and seasonality, focusing on underlying patterns.
- Various models enable features description and forecasting capabilities.
Time Series Overview
- Defined as a sequence of observations at specific, often equidistant, time intervals.
- Each observation is tied to time elements, allowing for temporal analysis.
Time Series Classifications
- Univariate Time Series: Analyzes a single variable over time (e.g., temperature measurements).
- Multivariate Time Series: Analyzes multiple variables simultaneously over time (e.g., continuous EEG data).
Preprocessing Time Series Data
- Time series data is typically organized in a tabular format with clear time representation.
- Convert time information (e.g., months) from strings to datetime objects for proper sequential analysis.
- Set time information as the index in DataFrames for easy observation selection.
Visualization of Time Series Data
- Univariate time series data can be visualized via line graphs with time on the x-axis and the analyzed variable on the y-axis.
Key Considerations
- Observations within time series are generally dependent; influenced by surrounding data points.
- Data points are rarely identically distributed, with differences in means and distributions across various time periods.
