3 Time series patterns Trend pattern exists when there is a long-term increase or decrease in the data. Seasonal pattern exists when a series is influenced by seasonal factors (e.g., the quarter of the year, the month, or day of the week). Cyclic pattern exists when data exhibit rises and falls that are not of fixed period (duration usually of at least 2 years). Forecasting using R Time series components 3

4 Time series components Differences between seasonal and cyclic patterns: seasonal pattern constant length; cyclic pattern variable length average length of cycle longer than length of seasonal pattern magnitude of cycle more variable than magnitude of seasonal pattern Forecasting using R Time series components 4

8 Time series patterns Daily change in Dow Jones Index Day Forecasting using R Time series components 8

9 Time series decomposition Y t = f(s t, T t, E t ) where Y t = data at period t S t = seasonal component at period t T t = trend-cycle component at period t E t = remainder (or irregular or error) component at period t Additive decomposition: Y t = S t + T t + E t. Multiplicative decomposition: Y t = S t T t E t. Forecasting using R Time series components 9

10 Time series decomposition Y t = f(s t, T t, E t ) where Y t = data at period t S t = seasonal component at period t T t = trend-cycle component at period t E t = remainder (or irregular or error) component at period t Additive decomposition: Y t = S t + T t + E t. Multiplicative decomposition: Y t = S t T t E t. Forecasting using R Time series components 9

11 Time series decomposition Y t = f(s t, T t, E t ) where Y t = data at period t S t = seasonal component at period t T t = trend-cycle component at period t E t = remainder (or irregular or error) component at period t Additive decomposition: Y t = S t + T t + E t. Multiplicative decomposition: Y t = S t T t E t. Forecasting using R Time series components 9

12 Time series decomposition Additive model appropriate if magnitude of seasonal fluctuations does not vary with level. If seasonal are proportional to level of series, then multiplicative model appropriate. Multiplicative decomposition more prevalent with economic series Alternative: use a Box-Cox transformation, and then use additive decomposition. Logs turn multiplicative relationship into an additive relationship: Y t = S t T t E t log Y t = log S t + log T t + log E t. Forecasting using R Time series components 10

16 Seasonal adjustment Useful by-product of decomposition: an easy way to calculate seasonally adjusted data. Additive decomposition: seasonally adjusted data given by Y t S t = T t + E t Multiplicative decomposition: seasonally adjusted data given by Y t /S t = T t E t Forecasting using R Time series components 14

17 Euro electrical equipment Electrical equipment manufacturing 120 New orders index series Data SeasAdjust Forecasting using R Time series components 15

18 Seasonal adjustment We use estimates of S based on past values to seasonally adjust a current value. Seasonally adjusted series reflect remainders as well as trend. Therefore they are not smooth and downturns or upturns can be misleading. It is better to use the trend-cycle component to look for turning points. Forecasting using R Time series components 16

19 History of time series decomposition Classical method originated in 1920s. Census II method introduced in Basis for modern X-12-ARIMA method. STL method introduced in 1983 TRAMO/SEATS introduced in 1990s. Forecasting using R Time series components 17

20 Outline 1 Time series components 2 STL decomposition 3 Forecasting and decomposition 4 Lab session 5 Forecasting using R STL decomposition 18

21 STL decomposition STL: Seasonal and Trend decomposition using Loess, Very versatile and robust. Unlike X-12-ARIMA, STL will handle any type of seasonality. Seasonal component allowed to change over time, and rate of change controlled by user. Smoothness of trend-cycle also controlled by user. Robust to outliers Not trading day or calendar adjustments. Only additive. Forecasting using R STL decomposition 19

22 Euro electrical equipment library(magrittr) elecequip %>% stl(s.window=5) %>% autoplot trend seasonal data remainder Forecasting using R Time STL decomposition 20

23 Euro electrical equipment elecequip %>% stl(t.window=15, s.window='periodic', robust=true) %>% autoplot seasonal data remainder trend Forecasting using R Time STL decomposition 21

24 STL decomposition in R t.window controls wiggliness of trend component. s.window controls variation on seasonal component. Forecasting using R STL decomposition 22

25 Outline 1 Time series components 2 STL decomposition 3 Forecasting and decomposition 4 Lab session 5 Forecasting using R Forecasting and decomposition 23

26 Forecasting and decomposition Forecast seasonal component by repeating the last year Forecast seasonally adjusted data using non-seasonal time series method. E.g., Holt s method next topic Random walk with drift model Combine forecasts of seasonal component with forecasts of seasonally adjusted data to get forecasts of original data. Sometimes a decomposition is useful just for understanding the data before building a separate forecasting model. Forecasting using R Forecasting and decomposition 24

30 Decomposition and prediction intervals It is common to take the prediction intervals from the seasonally adjusted forecasts and modify them with the seasonal component. This ignores the uncertainty in the seasonal component estimate. It also ignores the uncertainty in the future seasonal pattern. Forecasting using R Forecasting and decomposition 28
