Course Description

Welcome to the best online resource for learning how to use the Python programming Language for Time Series Analysis!
This course will teach you everything you need to know to use Python for forecasting time series data to predict new future data points.
We'll start off with the basics by teaching you how to work with and manipulate data using the NumPy and Pandas libraries with Python. Then we'll dive deeper into working with Pandas by learning about visualizations with the Pandas library and how to work with time stamped data with Pandas and Python.
Then we'll begin to learn about the statsmodels library and its powerful built in TimeSeries Analysis Tools. Including learning about Error-Trend-Seasonality decomposition and basic Holt-Winters methods.
Afterwards we'll get to the heart of the course, covering general forecasting models. We'll talk about creating AutoCorrelation and Partial AutoCorrelation charts and using them in conjunction with powerful ARIMA based models, including Seasonal ARIMA models and SARIMAX to include Exogenous data points.
Afterwards we'll learn about state of the art Deep Learning techniques with Recurrent Neural Networks that use deep learning to forecast future data points.
This course even covers Facebook's Prophet library, a simple to use, yet powerful Python library developed to forecast into the future with time series data.
So what are you waiting for! Learn how to work with your time series data and forecast the future!
We'll see you inside the course!
Who this course is for:
Python Developers interested in learning how to forecast time series data

Covering almost all topics and indepth explanations

By Udit Kumar on 12/20/2020

Need more basics level handholding -- like how to upload excel data into the python workbook etc. also practical examples like currency forecasting for on annual basis

Good, what I expected

By Shubhendra Kumar on 12/20/2020

This course on time series analysis is simply the best you can get on the entire Udemy platform as of now. Most of the state of the art techniques have been covered in the relevant sections. However Facebook Prophet's section could have been detailed a bit more. Definitely, the course is worth pursuing for solidifying the foundations of time series analysis via python.
