In this course, you learn about data exploration, feature creation, and feature selection for time sequences. The topics discussed include binning, smoothing, transformations, and data set operations for time series, spectral analysis, singular spectrum analysis, distance measures, and motif analysis.
Learn How To
Create time series data from transactional or timestamped data. Decompose time series into components of systematic variation. Perform spectral analysis to identify cycles in the data. Perform a singular spectrum analysis to identify cycles and trend components of the data. Calculate distance measures between series to mitigate collinearity and rank-order features. Perform a motif analysis to identify repeating sub-sequences in series.Who Should Attend
Analysts with a quantitative background as well as domain experts who would like to augment their time series toolbox
Prerequisites
Before taking this course, you should be comfortable with basic statistical concepts. You can gain this experience by completing the Statistics 1: Introduction to ANOVA, Regression, and Logistic Regression course. Familiarity with matrices and principal component analysis is also helpful but not required.
