Why modeltime?

Modeltime unlocks time series models and machine learning in one framework

knitr::include_graphics("vignettes/forecast_plot.jpg")

No need to switch back and forth between various frameworks. modeltime unlocks machine learning & classical time series analysis.

  • forecast: Use ARIMA, ETS, and more models coming (arima_reg(), arima_boost(), & exp_smoothing()).
  • prophet: Use Facebook’s Prophet algorithm (prophet_reg() & prophet_boost())
  • tidymodels: Use any parsnip model: rand_forest(), boost_tree(), linear_reg(), mars(), svm_rbf() to forecast

Forecast faster

A streamlined workflow for forecasting

Modeltime incorporates a streamlined workflow (see Getting Started with Modeltime) for using best practices to forecast.

Summary

Modeltime is an amazing ecosystem for time series forecasting. But it can take a long time to learn:

  • Many algorithms
  • Ensembling and Resampling
  • Machine Learning
  • Deep Learning
  • Scalable Modeling: 10,000+ time series

Your probably thinking how am I ever going to learn time series forecasting. Here’s the solution that will save you years of struggling.

Time Series is Changing

Time series is changing. Businesses now need 10,000+ time series forecasts every day. This is what I call a High-Performance Time Series Forecasting System (HPTSF) - Accurate, Robust, and Scalable Forecasting.

High-Performance Forecasting Systems will save companies by improving accuracy and scalability. Imagine what will happen to your career if you can provide your organization a “High-Performance Time Series Forecasting System” (HPTSF System).

How to Learn High-Performance Time Series Forecasting

I teach how to build a HPTFS System in my High-Performance Time Series Forecasting Course. You will learn:

  • Time Series Machine Learning (cutting-edge) with Modeltime - 30+ Models (Prophet, ARIMA, XGBoost, Random Forest, & many more)
  • Deep Learning with GluonTS (Competition Winners)
  • Time Series Preprocessing, Noise Reduction, & Anomaly Detection
  • Feature engineering using lagged variables & external regressors
  • Hyperparameter Tuning
  • Time series cross-validation
  • Ensembling Multiple Machine Learning & Univariate Modeling Techniques (Competition Winner)
  • Scalable Forecasting - Forecast 1000+ time series in parallel
  • and more.
