Book Description

Hands-on Time Series Analysis with R, Second Edition, is a comprehensive, practical guide to understanding and applying time series analysis using R. Designed for professionals and students alike, the book will help you dissect time-ordered data, uncover trends, detect anomalies, and forecast future events.

You’ll start with R fundamentals and data structures, progressing through time series visualization and decomposition,before covering classical forecasting methods like exponential smoothing and ARIMA. You’ll also familiarize yourself with cutting-edge forecasting techniques such as Bayesian modeling, TBATS, and multivariate forecasting.

Building upon the extraordinary success of the first edition, this new edition explores the powerful Prophet library, neural networks, and LSTM models to handle complex forecasting challenges. Unlike other similar books, it uses real-world case studies from domains like e-commerce and supply chain make the content highly applicable, while self-assessment questions and step-by-step tutorials reinforce key concepts.

By the end of this book, you’ll be able to confidently apply a wide array of forecasting methods to solve real-world business and research problems.

What you will learn

• Work with time series data to uncover underlying patterns and trends
• Implement forecasting models like ARIMA and Prophet to predict future values
• Create powerful data visualizations to communicate time series insights
• Leverage R for time-based analysis across various domains
• Build and fine-tune models for different data scenarios
• Detect anomalies and adjust models for improved accuracy
• Use deep learning techniques like LSTM for complex time series tasks

Who this book is for

This book is for junior to mid-level professionals in business intelligence, finance, and supply chain roles, as well as academics and students interested in data science. No prior expertise in time series analysis is required, but a working knowledge of basic R programming is helpful.
