Course Schedule
Sprint 1: Time Series Data Fundamentals
Do cherry prices affect sales of pie crusts? Start by exploring the relationship between two sets of time series data: data on the price of cherries, and data on the volume of pie crusts sold. Your job is to figure out if these two time series appear to be related such that more detailed analysis can be done later.
Sprint 2: Time Series Modeling
What is the relationship between cherry price and volume of pie crusts sold? Is it positive or negative? How long is the lag, if any? What model best explains the relationship? You’ll conduct your analysis and write up your results to demonstrate your skills.
Sprint 3: Tying It All Together
Put all your skills together. Given two datasets – one on the price to produce energy, the other on the volume of energy used by customers – conduct a full analysis of the relationship between the two time series datasets. Start with EDA and some basic plotting, run and evaluate some ARIMA models, and finish up with a written explanation of your findings.
