We have to find a way of isolating and measuring the seasonal variations. There are two reasons for isolating and measuring the effect of seasonal variations. Summing the values of a particular season for several years, the irregular variations will cancel each other, due to independent random disturbances. If we …
Coding Time Variable by Taking Origin at the Beginning Suppose we have time-series data for the years 1990, 1991, 1992, and 1994. We can take the origin of a time series at the beginning and assign $x = 0$ to the first period and $1, 2, 3, …$ to other …
Here we will discuss the multiplicative models and Additive Models. The analysis of a time series is the decomposition of a time series into its different components for their separate study. The process of analyzing a time series is to isolate and measure its various components. We try to answer …
Traditional methods of time series analysis are concerned with decomposing a series into a trend, a seasonal variation, and other irregular fluctuations. Although this approach is not always the best but still useful (Kendall and Stuart, 1996). Components of Time Series The components, by which a time series is composed, …
