ExcelR Data Science Assignment No 18

Forecasting :

  • Forecasting is a data science task that is critical to a variety of activities within any business organisation. Forecasting is a useful tool that can help to understand how historical data influences the future. This is done by looking at past data, defining the patterns, and producing short or long-term predictions.

There are four general components that a time series forecasting model is comprised of :

  1. Trend : Increase or decrease in the series of data over longer a period.

  2. Seasonality : Fluctuations in the pattern due to seasonal determinants over a period such as a day, week, month, season.

  3. Cyclical variations : Occurs when data exhibit rises and falls at irregular intervals.

  4. Random or irregular variations : Instability due to random factors that do not repeat in the pattern.

Popular Algorithms :

  1. Autoregressive (AR)

  2. Moving Average (MA)

  3. Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average (ARIMA)

  4. Seasonal Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average (SARIMA)

  5. Exponential Smoothing (ES)
