Course Content (Syllabus)
Basic characteristics of time series: stationarity; autocorrelation; removal of trends and seasonality; independence test of time series. Linear stochastic processes: autoregressive (AR), moving average (MA), autoregressive moving average (ARMA). Time series models: AR, MA and ARMA for stationary time series; autoregressive integrated moving average (ARIMA) models and seasonal ARIMA (SARIMA) for non-stationary time series. Prediction of time series. Spectral analysis of time series. Nonlinear analysis of time series: Extensions of linear stochastic models; nonlinear characteristics of time series; nonlinear dynamics and chaos; nonlinear prediction of time series.
