Time Series Talk : Stationarity

[@LinLin-rv9ib]

you saved my life in my master study

[@mohammadzaid4100]

Is this playlist good for ma eco student?

[@w157-p5x]

Currently preparing for my masters thesis (not economy related). I hardly had any statistics courses during my studies, but now I need knowledge of time series analysis in order to create a forecasting model. Within just 3 days consuming videos on this channel, my understanding of time series analysis went from virtually 0 to something that at least allows me to read relevant papers and understand the basic concept of the proposed models within. This guy is amazing

[@stephenpuryear]

The best test of whether or not our instructor truly understands a topic is their ability to explain it clearly. You PASS, again!

[@uafiewn]

You're amazing. I'm taking a time series course and the professor isn't so great at explaining any of these concepts. Really appreciate you and your videos! Please keep them coming.

[@ResilientFighter]

Ritvik, this was the most clear explanation of stationary I have ever found. THANK YOU!!!

[@patricke1362]

your videos are great, first I was skeptical because of the style with the marker/ handwritten. But it is awesome !!! Your voice, your style of speaking, your structure in every video from arima to white noise. Very very valuable content !!!!! keep on going adding value to the world !!

[@lynguyen709]

OMG your visual example and explanation are very clear and easy to follow. Thank you so much for making such a thoughtful video!

[@akrylic_]

Been following since I found your Ridge regression video. You're incredible, keep up the great work!

[@ritvikmath]

I appreciate it!

[@slothner943]

I've watched a bunch of videos now, started on SVM. The quality and pedagogy of these videos is superb! Great job!

[@nickbossi7630]

So nice seeing how to make the time series stationary at end. Much appreciated!

[@lashlarue7924]

Best math teacher I have ever had the pleasure of being taught by! ❤

[@mauriceligulu5058]

Your videos are amazing, you make time series easier. Keep the good work

[@ritvikmath]

Thanks!

[@fazilahamed1240]

Such videos are the reason why I still love KZbin

[@tracyliu2168]

Fantastic Video!! The stationary has been puzzled me for a long time, this is the simplest and easiest video to understand!!

[@seanmcgill5330]

Seriously amazing, learned more from watching your videos for a hour then countless grad school lectures.

[@andrewarden104]

so easy to understand, I've watched everything on KZbin but this is where things start to make sense lolllll

[@dariosilva85]

God bless you, man. It is like watching art, when someone can explain and articulate things clearly like you.

[@nabarodawn9040]

you are seriously a life savor, much love

[@Chillos100]

Damn, I was struggling to grasp this in my Finance class 8 years ago, and finally it landed!! You nailed it man!! Thnx a lot

[@ritvikmath]

no problem !

[@chrstfer2452]

Really wish id discovered this channel before my semester ended

[@gianlucalepiscopia3123]

Never understood statistics any better...keep going please

[@robertapolimeni3394]

Really good explanation, thank you man just incredible clear

[@ritvikmath]

You're very welcome!

[@lima073]

Thank you very much for such amazing class !

[@KRKUN]

Man ! your explanation is a life saver for Me thanks a lot :)

[@nidhisharma-io6gs]

Excellent, made time series concepts easier and interesting

[@tassoskat8623]

These videos are so great! I am really happy I found them and I have to thank you for creating them. I would be greatful if you or anyone from your viewers could suggest me a book on time aeries analysis for referencing purposes. Thank you again 😊

[@stefanobortolon6559]

Very intuitive (and quick) explanation!

[@eug4136]

Nice explanation. Another idea pops up at 5:47. Once you recognize it is a linear function (a line) with noise, wouldn't it be easier to shift-rotate the coordinate system making that line the new x-axis? At least to explain the intuition behind further manipulations.

[@nethrasriram7759]

Thank you for such a clear explanation!

[@ritvikmath]

Glad it was helpful!

[@nedjoua8326]

U are amazing.. i finally understand what time series are .. keep it up .. 🤩🤩🤩

[@ritvikmath]

No problem!

[@AN-yr7nm]

Great work, super nice and simple explanations! You rock :D

[@praveen2hearts]

Very concise and clear explanation...

[@CHRISTICAUTION]

Incredible useful for our my masters thesis

[@piratassarajevo4293]

Where did B1t and B1(t-1) go when you calculated z?

[@kevineotieno5]

Thanks for pointing out. I also did not understand the expansion that led to the final value of Z.

[@kenlau4649]

Thanks for clearing up the question about whether we can do a transformation like Zt to make the series stationary.

[@renukaul9416]

Concept of stationarity is nicely explained

[@lavidrori7518]

You are absolutely master piece

[@ivanklful]

Nice explained! I would like to see one practical example that would further elaborate this matter. Anyway great video and thanks!

[@ritvikmath]

Thanks! And good suggestion

[@frankl1]

Good explanation, thanks. However, I am a bit confused with the condition on seasonality and wikipedia says seasonal cycles do not prevent a time series to be stationary. Could you share an example of a stationary time series that is white noise? Arent't f(x) = cos(x) and g(x) = sin(x) stationary?

[@vaibhav1131]

stationerity assumes variance is constant. But hetroskedecity says variance is time specific. But in time series we see present of stationerity and hetroskdecity as well. How is this explained? shd these two not be mutually exclusive

[@charlesdixon1950]

Can you answer why B1t - B1t-1 = B1?

[@rodrigogaleano5145]

Good video.

[@Karenshow]

hello, could you please elaborate a little bit more on the 2K2, 8:56. Thanks

[@manishkulkarni9982]

Very well explained. Can you pl include a video on ADF test and how to interpret the P value?

[@himanshugupta4482]

Yeah you are really great hope you continue to make the awesome videos ❤️❤️❤️

[@Mewgu_studio]

Thanks this corrected a lot of my misunderstanding!

[@ritvikmath]

Great to hear!

[@ramesh-dk9nr]

8:55 Condition 3 of seasonality isnt satisfied right, graph is not cyclic, how is Zt stationary?

[@krishnasarathmaddula194]

This is Amazing,Sir. Thank you!

[@peacem351]

Thanks for the video! I am just a little bit confused by the example in the end of the video. As the time series has already been modeled by the linear regression model, then why do we need to do the differencing to create a new series for modeling using AR/MA/ARMA? So in the end, to model such series, we need to combine both linear regression and AR/MA/ARMA? Or is it that we use AR/MA/ARMA to substitute the linear regression model? Thanks!

[@qqq_Peace]

Hi, your video is excellent, making time series much more understandable. But I couldn't find the video specific for Augmented Dickey-Fuller test in your videos. As you mentioned in this video, there is another video on ADF test. Thanks!

[@sgrouge]

Ive been struggling to understand third condition of stationarity until now. I had an intuition it was something like seasonality but it was really not clear for me. Ty.

[@sanjayd411]

This explanation assumes “ strict sense” stationarity yes? There’s a slightly relaxed definition of stationarity called the “ wide sense” stationarity. I think the white noise process falls under ‘wide sense’ stationarity.

[@Youngduck93]

Found another gem on youtube :)

[@gaganpreetkaurchadha9169]

Thank you for this helpful video

[@ritvikmath]

Glad it was helpful!

[@atharvat223]

i didnt understand the variance part .how variance of the errors is 2k^2 .Can someone explain it or suggest some reading material

[@mmczhang]

I have the same question.

[@David-bo7zj]

I also have the same question, would they not just cancel?

[@shri1905]

@@David-bo7zj No, variances never cancel out. For any 2 random variables, X and Y , Var(X+Y) = Var(X) + Var(Y) + 2*Cov(X,Y) and Var(X-Y) = Var(X) + Var(Y) - 2*Cov(X,Y) where Cov is the covariance. When, random variables are independent Cov(X,Y) =0. Hence, Var(e(t) - e(t-1)) = var(e(t)) + var(e(t-1)) - 0 = 2K^2

[@arda8206]

CAN SOMEONE PLEASE EXPLAIN WHY DO WE NEED STATIONARITY FOR ARMA PROCESS PLEASE? WHAT WILL HAPPEN IF IT IS NOT STATIONARY?

[@aborucu]

For the 3rd example, is the mean constant over different time intervals ?

[@jaralara6429]

I have the same question!

[@nnamdinwankwo3140]

Hi, please could you share the link to the ADF test?

[@steff.5580]

Why do you say that, in example number 3, the mean rule is not violated? If we look at different intervals, like in example number 2, then the mean will not be constant (for instance, taking the first half of a period and the entire period).

[@ritvikmath]

That's a great question! You are right that we can always find two intervals with different means but the idea of stationarity has more to do with whether the mean is consistently getting higher or lower. In the second graph, the mean is consistently rising whereas in the third graph, the mean is centered around 0. Hopefully that helps a bit!

[@RG-rb2mi]

Outstanding video, Any chance there is a video where you code this or solve an example with some values for those constant in the final equation for Z(t) Thanks a lot

[@bigvinweasel1050]

Hey @ritvikmath, I tried using ADF and KPSS on 3 sample datasets, similar to the ones in your video. One dataset violates the constant mean, the other thd constant variance, and lastly one with seasonality. However, it seems that both the ADF and KPSS are returning the datasets to be stationary for both non-constsnt deviation and the seasonality dataset. It accurately tests non-constant mean datasets. Any thoughts as to why that would happen?

[@akshaypai2096]

Thanks for finally making me understand this concept, but im still trying to figure out what effect Stationarity has on my forecasts or how itll influence my forecast?

[@anesethemi5054]

the models that are used for forecasting rely under the assumption that the time series that we want to model is stationary, without stationarity condition AR, MA, ARMA model cannot be utilized for modelling purposes.

[@zhanbolatmagzumov6409]

Hi! Thank you a lot. Could you make some videos on cointegration and causality. Concepts are very tricky for me

[@vikrantsyal8945]

there is seasonality in your example...there's an upward trend, as well as seasonality about the trend

[@byan3495]

Excellent video!! great and concise explanation! But i just have one question left. What we forecast is the ts after differencing, but do we need to recover the differenced ts back to the original one? Will the forecast be the same? Or there is just no need to convert it back? Thanks in advance!

[@vijaygusain119]

Sir in the variance step k^2 should cancel other k^2 and should be zero… please clarify!

[@TheRish123]

Just insane! Thank you so much

[@hamishloux]

Well paced. Please keep it up!

[@SonuGupta-hk4tb]

Quick question, there is a seasonality in my timeseries data but as per augmented dicky fuller test, my timeseries is stationary. Now I am confused. Could you please provide more context to why this might be happening?

[@MsDosSantoss]

Thank you but I am afraid, you are confused between seasonal and cyclical components because at 3:45 your data is all seasonal but just 3rd one is cyclical. Please consider then discuss again :)

[@tirthvora3421]

Stationarity in Time series The models like AR, MA assume our time series to be stationary stationary - mean constant, std dev constant and no seasonality non - lot of fluctuations in the data. first there were immense fluctuations, now less -> different std dev - mean is not constant. of a time chunk - seasonality - periodic trend over time how to check? 1. visually 2. global vs local tests (global mean =|= local mean) 3. augmented duckey fuller test how to make it stationary yt = b0 + b1 t + Et ( mean not constant in the graph) new series Zt = yt - yt-1 Zt = b1 + Et - Et-1 E(Zt) = b1 (mean of new series) (Et and Et-1 are constants from some distribution with mean 0) Var(Zt) =

[@Slothlodge]

This doesnt make sense to me as the criteria we learn in class is different. "Stationarity means that the mean and the variance of the process are independent of time / constant over time". Examples in our class would rather look at the first graph as seasonality Second would be right. but third is stationary. But in general we have many graphs with bigger and smaller fluctuations but are still stationary. So the statement around time series "1" is in direct opposition to what we are learning. a stationary time series can still have higher and lower peaks but as long as that is constant over time it should be good? Im so confused.

[@jordanhansen6649]

The third is considered stationary tbh

[@darwin6984]

Very good video, may I know what is Yt here representing?

[@antygona-iq8ew]

would not seasonality make the global mean being to equal to the local mean/s (depends on the chunk of series we take for a comparison?

[@minhnguyenbui6827]

excellent work. Your great sharings save me

[@ritvikmath]

hey no problem!

[@mariafernandamolina7851]

Hello Ritvik! I've had this question forever, even after trying to deal with neural networks and Narmax models! I hope you would be able to reply and give me some light. How can we deal with zeros in time series? Modelling is based in events of a time series that Granger cause the one to be predicted but most of it consists of zeros. So far i just remove non interesting events and most of the zeros but should i be doing that or is there another approach? Thank you!

[@Eldobbeljoe]

The video about AR showed a seasonal time series (milk). In this video it says that stationary means there is no seasonality and stationary is important because then models like AR can be used. Those are conflicting statements. So I am confused. Who can help?

[@prameelagorinta4626]

Aren't we applying same method as in making unit roots to stationary? Is there a relation btn non-stationary ts and a ts with unit roots

[@Fogell-x9t]

I have a question if the mean is not constant how standard deviation can be.

[@mattpickering4223]

Damn I need to refresh on some stuff but this helps out so much 🙏

[@diana.b1059]

May I know how is it that the beta1 t - beta1 t-1 equates to beta1?

[@Hassan_MM.]

By Assuming they are slope coefficients of the same process & t,t-1 are not independent

[@diana.b1059]

@@Hassan_MM. thank you!

[@EgeErdem]

if the straight line in your last example is something like a line y_t=x+1 and y_(t-1)= x, than isnt is z_t = 1, and that is a straight line with a constant value of 1. So if straight line is periodic, isnt it violates the seasonality?

[@sandroneymar5368]

Would have been cool if you provide a way to download the scanned paper

[@aimenmalik8929]

hello there, i have a query that,if i have a stationary time series data, then no matter how many sub-sequence i get form it. All the sub_seq should should be stationary. but what i observe is p_value is changing,. and even some sub_seq are throwing up p-value to be >0.05(means non-stationary).why is it so ??

[@user-or7ji5hv8y]

Can you do a practical example of going from the differences back to y, the variable that we really want to forecast.

[@Raaj_ML]

Good Video. But how is the mean constant in the third sine wave ?

Great explanation !

[@mmaldonado7584]

I have been watching your amazing teaching videos which are so intuitive. Would it be possible for you to post the sheet notes you work on somewhere? It would be easier for us to make notes on top of those instead of trying to make our own sheets. Thank you!

[@sohailhosseini2266]

Thanks for the video!

[@prathameshdinkar2966]

Doubt You said the mean for chart no. 3 is 0, as the local and global means are 0 but, the mean for chart no.3, varies locally depending upon where you take the interval. Eg. for half of the cycle it is different than 1/4 cycle

[@arshsharma-m2b]

How is the mean constant in the third plot? It's only zero if we take the time frame as 2π. I am missing something ps help.

If the time series is constant, by definition, that series is also stationary?
