| Course contents : | 1 Modelling a time series using the regression method: decomposition of the series into its trend, its seasonal component and its random component (perturbation). Detection of outliers. Correlated perturbations.
2. The theory of moving averages. Kernel of a moving average. Series which are preserved by a moving average. Slutsky-Yule's effect. Usual moving averages: arithmetic, Henderson, Spencer. Moving averages preserving local polynomials, minimizing, under conditions, the variance of the random component. Smoothing capability of a moving average. Program CENSUS X11.
3. Previsions using smoothing procedures: exponential smoothing, Brown's methods, Holt&Winters methods.
4. Second order stationary process. Autocovariance and autocorrelation. Partial autocorrelation and Durbin's algorithm. Spectral density. ARMA(p,q) models, canonical representation. ARIMA and SARIMA models. |
