Solved – How to train the Model in Time Series with Holiday, Weekends

I am working on time series to forecast the number of inbound calls for next 1 month on a daily basis. I built a model using auto.arima and forecasted. My forecasting data is showing gradually increasing no. of calls irrespective of holiday or weekend. (I have data for 2 months Aug-1-2016 to Dec-31- 2016. Here … Read more

Solved – Multiple ARIMA models fit data well. How to determine order? Correct approach

I've got two time series (parameters of a model for males and females) and aim to identify an appropriate ARIMA model in order to make forecasts. My time series looks like: The plot and the ACF show non-stationary (the spikes of the ACF cut off very slowly). Thus, I use differencing and obtain: This plot … Read more

Solved – Difference between MA and AR

I fail to see the difference between Moving Average (MA): $x_t=epsilon_t+β_1epsilon_{t−1}+…+β_qepsilon_{t−q}$ Autoregressive (AR):   $x_t=epsilon_t+β_1x_{t−1}+…+β_qx_{t−q}$ $x_t$ is the observed value and $epsilon$ is the residual. But since both assume a stationary time series with $mu = 0$, isn't the residual and the observed value identical? I.e., $epsilon_i = x_i – mu = x_i$? This would imply … Read more

Solved – Forecasting daily time series sales revenue with many zero entries

I have been trying to forecast the sales revenue of different product groups (the displayed sales revenue is aggregated over all products for each day e.g. smartphones with different prices as one group) but haven't found the right approach yet. I am pretty much a novice in time series analysis / forecasting and use Python. … Read more
