Goal : The goal of this course is to practice with R the use of various mathematical techniques for the analysis of times series data and do forecasting. Will be seen in the course the most known techniques in the world (not exceeding the level of a university Master) considered as a base in the field of business economics, governments investment strategies or actuarial. No maths will be done or explained during this course (you can request the corresponding theoretical course).

The trainee must also have the ability to represent mentally simple and complex mechanisms process. Since the course includes demonstration and hands-on use of a software, participants should master file management in MS Windows/Linux/Mac based personal computer.

Goals :
  • Introduction
  • Generating a time series from raw data
  • Extract sub-set of a time series
  • Read time stamp data
  • Statistical analysis
  • Decomposition of a time series using additive or multiplicative model
  • Sequence test (Walf-Wolfowitz test)
  • Control of stationarity
  • Filtering
  • Moving average filter
  • Simple exponential smoothing filter
  • Holt and Winter's exponential filter (multiplicative model)
  • Best forecasting model in the sense of errors
  • Autocorrelation
  • Autocorrelation coefficient
  • Partial autocorrelation coefficient
  • Univariate AR, ARIMA, ARCH, GARCH models
  • AR(p) and ARIMA(p,0,0)
  • ARIMA(0,0,0) and moving average
  • ARIMA(0,1,0)
  • ...
Pedagogical method : The training is based on small practical exercises based on the training book.
