Forecasting simulated ARIMA

Now that you are an expert at fitting ARIMA models, you can use your skills for forecasting. First, you will work with simulated data.

We generated 120 observations from an ARIMA(1,1,0) model with AR parameter .9. The data are in y and the first 100 observations are in x. These observations are plotted for you. You will fit an ARIMA(1,1,0) model to the data in x and verify that the model fits well. Then use sarima.for() from astsa to forecast the data 20 time periods ahead. You will then compare the forecasts to the actual data in y.

The basic syntax for forecasting is sarima.for(data, n.ahead, p, d, q) where n.ahead is a positive integer that specifies the forecast horizon. The predicted values and their standard errors are printed, the data are plotted in black, and the forecasts are in red along with 2 mean square prediction error bounds as blue dashed lines.

The astsa package is preloaded and the data (x) and differenced data (diff(x)) are plotted.

You will investigate the nature of time series data and learn the basics of ARMA models that can explain the behavior of such data. You will learn the basic R commands needed to help set up raw time series data to a form that can be analyzed using ARMA models.

Exercise 1: First things first Exercise 2: Data play Exercise 3: Elements of time series Exercise 4: Stationarity and nonstationarity Exercise 5: Differencing Exercise 6: Detrending data Exercise 7: Dealing with trend and heteroscedasticity Exercise 8: Stationary time series: ARMA Exercise 9: Simulating ARMA models

You will discover the wonderful world of ARMA models and how to fit these models to time series data. You will learn how to identify a model, how to choose the correct model, and how to verify a model once you fit it to data. You will learn how to use R time series commands from the stats and astsa packages.

Exercise 1: AR and MA models Exercise 2: Fitting an AR(1) model Exercise 3: Fitting an AR(2) model Exercise 4: Fitting an MA(1) model Exercise 5: AR and MA together Exercise 6: Fitting an ARMA model Exercise 7: Identify an ARMA model Exercise 8: Model choice and residual analysis Exercise 9: Model choice - I Exercise 10: Model choice - II Exercise 11: Residual analysis - I Exercise 12: Residual analysis - II Exercise 13: ARMA get in

Now that you know how to fit ARMA models to stationary time series, you will learn about integrated ARMA (ARIMA) models for nonstationary time series. You will fit the models to real data using R time series commands from the stats and astsa packages.
