Overview
A time series is a time-dependent sequence of data points. Typical examples of time series are macroeconomic variables, market-related data, and technical measurement data. Time series analysis deals with the mathematical-statistical analysis of time series and the prediction of their future development. It is a specialized form of regression analysis. The Minitab Time Series Analysis seminar demonstrates A selection of methods for conducting time series analyses. In the first part, you will learn how to describe a time series and summarize it in key parameters. The second part introduces univariate time series analysis. This includes the decomposition of a time series and the derivation of (autoregressive) regression models using AR, MA, and AR(I)MA models.
