These are time series regression, decomposition methods, exponential smoothing, and the Box-Jenkins forecasting methodology. Objectives: The principle objective of the course is to introduce graduate and advanced undergraduate students in mathematics, economics, business, engineering, and any other field where the analysis of time series is important, to some of the many approaches to analyzing time series data. In addition we will equip them with the tools and knowledge to make forecasts obtained from the statistical analysis of historical data. Student Leanrning Outcome: At the end of the course, the student will be able to • analyze time series data using various statistical approaches • generate reasonable forecast values Textbook Forecasting, Time Series, And Regression, 4th Edition, Bowerman, O'Connell, Koehler; ISBN-13: 9777, Brooks/ Cole.

We will be covering chapters 1, 2, 3, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, and 11*. Apart from text book we will use different resources for the classroom activities and homeworks.

Some addition homework problems will periodically be assigned during the lecture. Lowest homework grade will be dropped.

For better exam results you need to master all the homework problems. Exams There will be two mid-term exams, and a final. To answer the exam questions, you are expected to have a clear mathematical reasoning of the statistical methods used to solve the subject problems.

Project There will be two mini-projects during the semester. For a good project, you need to describe the data, pose reasonable hypotheses, select appropriate time series model/s, compute the test results, and explain the results in both statistical terms and in plain English. Primary objective of these projects is to apply statistical methods in the real life situations. Software We use a software called 'R'. R is a programming language for statistical computing and visualizing data.
