Session
Time-series data is all around us: from logistics to digital marketing, from pricing to stock
markets. It’s hard to imagine a modern business that has no time series data to forecast.
However, mastering such forecasting is not an easy task.
For this talk, together with other domain experts, I have collected a list of common time
series issues that data professionals commonly run into. After this talk, you will learn to
identify, understand, and resolve such issues. This will include stabilising divergent time
series, organising delayed / irregular data, handling missing values without anomaly propagation,
and reducing the impact of noise and outliers on your forecasting models.
