Evaluate on the stationarity of the water demand series. In your analysis, include visualizations such as time series plots and autocorrelation function (ACF) plots to examine trends, seasonality, and correlations over time. Provide a thorough explanation of your findings, clearly interpreting the plots and justifying your conclusions about whether the series is stationary. 1b First, split the time series data into a training set and a test set by using all but the last four points for training and reserving the last four points for testing. Using the training data, fit three trend models covered in the course. Evaluate and interpret the model fits with plots, and perform a residual analysis to identify any patterns or anomalies. Based on your results, discuss how well these models capture the trend, and assess their suitability for forecasting the test period. While you don't need to forecast based on the models, you will need to provide a clear, detailed explanation to support your conclusions. Part 2: Seasonality and Differencing 2a. Using the training set of the time series, fit the ANOVA Seasonality model and a Harmonic model to account for quarterly seasonality. Evaluate the model fit using appropriate plots, statistical significance of the coefficients and perform a residual analysis to check for patterns or anomalies. Based on your findings, discuss how well the model captures the seasonal patterns and its suitability for forecasting the test period (without necessarily forecasting the test data). Provide a clear explanation to support your conclusions. 2b. Instead of fitting a trend or seasonal model, take the first-order difference of the water demand series (the training set). Plot the differenced series and its ACF. Compare this "differencing" approach to the "trend-fitting" approach in Part 1. Which is more appropriate for this time series? 2c. Using the training set, fit a non-parametric trend-seasonal model and overlay the fitted values on the original series to visualize the model's tracking performance. Generate and examine the residuals and their ACF to determine if the deterministic components have successfully captured the serial dependence or if the process remains non-stationary. Interpret these diagnostics to assess the model’s suitability for forecasting, and provide a recommendation on whether this hybrid approach or the previously explored trend/seasonal/differencing methods are more appropriate for out-of-sample prediction. Part 3. ARIMA Modeling 3a. Applying the trend-seasonal model from Section 2c to the training data, extract the resulting residuals and implement an iterative search to identify the optimal ARMA(p,q) process. Evaluate all combinations up to a maximum order of p = 5 and q = 5, utilizing the Corrected Akaike Information Criterion (AICc) as the primary metric for model selection. Report the selected orders and the final model coefficients, and perform a residual diagnostic check—including ACF, PACF, and a test for serial correlation—to confirm if this combined deterministic and stochastic approach has successfully achieved a stationary white noise process. Note: Ensure you prepare the data set up to facilitate the forecast generation in the upcoming section. 3b. Using the original training data, implement an iterative procedure to identify the optimal ARIMA(p,d,q) model, constrained to maximum orders of p=7, q=7, and a differencing order of $d=1$. In the model fitting process, ensure include.mean = TRUE is specified to appropriately account for the intercept. Once the top-performing model is selected via AICc, evaluate the fit using a comprehensive suite of diagnostic tools, including residual time series plots, ACF/PACF analysis, and formal statistical tests for serial correlation and normality. Discuss the results of these tests and whether the selected ARIMA model sufficiently captures the underlying dynamics of the original series compared to the residual modeling in the previous section. 3c. Apply a SARIMA(2,0,1)(2,1,0) model with a period of 4 and with drift to the training original data. Use the same tests and plots that were applied in the previous question. Afterward, provide an explanation of the differences and expected outcomes in the predictions when comparing this model to the one used in 3b. Discuss how the inclusion of seasonal components in the SARIMA model may impact the predictions. Part 4: Forecast 4a. Using the models selected in Part 3, you will now forecast the test set (the last 4 points). However, it's important to note that the model created in 3a was based on the residuals, not the actual data points. Therefore, to generate forecasts for the actual data, you will need to take additional steps, using also the model from 2c. 4b. Which model would you select for out-of-sample prediction? What makes it the best choice? Support your argument with relevant prediction performance metrics, confidence intervals, or any other appropriate methods you deem necessary to justify your decision.
