M3, a metrics platform, and M3DB, a distributed time series database, were developed at Uber out of necessity. After using what was available as open source and finding we were unable to use them at our scale due to issues with their reliability, cost and operationally intensive nature we built our own metrics platform piece by piece. We used our experience to help us build a native distributed time series database, a highly dynamic and performant aggregation service, query engine and other supporting infrastructure.

In the midst of the deep learning hype, p-values might not be the hottest topic in data science. However, association mapping remains a fundamental tool to justify and underpin scientific conclusions. Inspired by an approach for time series classification based on predictive subsequences (i.e shapelets [1]), we developed S3M, a method that identifies short time series subsequences that are statistically associated with a class or phenotype while tackling the multiple hypothesis problem.
When developing IoT, financial or industrial applications, the choice of a good time series database is most of the time a headache…
You will learn in this post how to:
- decompose double-seasonal time series
- detrend time series
- model and forecast double-seasonal time series with trend
- use two types of simple regression trees
- set important hyperparameters related to regression tree
This web site contains notes and materials for an advanced elective course on statistical forecasting that is taught at the Fuqua School of Business, Duke University. It covers linear regression and time series forecasting models as well as general principles of thoughtful data analysis.
The time series material is illustrated with output produced by Statgraphics, a statistical software package that is highly interactive and has good features for testing and comparing models, including a parallel-model forecasting procedure that I designed many years ago.
The material on multivariate data analysis and linear regression is illustrated with output produced by RegressIt, a free Excel add-in which I also designed. However, these notes are platform-independent. Any statistical software package ought to provide the analytical capabilities needed for the various topics covered here.
This article focuses on using a Deep LSTM Neural Network architecture to provide multidimensional time series forecasting using Keras and Tensorflow - specifically on stock market datasets to provide momentum indicators of stock price.
The following article sections will briefly touch on LSTM neuron cells, give a toy example of predicting a sine wave then walk through the application to a stochastic time series. The article assumes a basic working knowledge of simple deep neural networks.
Indoor movement prediction involves using wireless sensor strength data to predict the location and motion of subjects within a building. It is a challenging problem as there is no direct analytical model to translate the variable length traces of signal strength data from multiple sensors into user behavior.
You are handed data and told to develop a forecast model. What do you do? This is a common situation; far more common than most people think. Perhaps you are sent a CSV file. Perhaps you are given access to a database. Perhaps you are starting a competition. The problem can be reasonably well defined: …
When you are presented with a new time series forecasting problem, there are many things to consider.
The choice that you make directly impacts each step of the project from the design of a test harness to evaluate forecast models to the fundamental difficulty of the forecast problem that you are working on.
It is possible to very quickly narrow down the options by working through a series of questions about your time series forecasting problem. By considering a few themes and questions within each theme, you narrow down the type of problem, test harness, and even choice of algorithms for your project.
In this post, you will discover a framework that you can use to quickly understand and frame your time series forecasting problem.

Machine learning methods can be used for classification and forecasting on time series problems. Before exploring machine learning methods for time series, it is a good idea to ensure you have exhausted classical linear time series forecasting methods. Classical time series forecasting methods may be focused on linear relationships, nevertheless, they are sophisticated and perform …
Prophet is a procedure for forecasting time series data based on an additive model where non-linear trends are fit with yearly, weekly, and daily seasonality, plus holiday effects. It works best with time series that have strong seasonal effects and several seasons of historical data. Prophet is robust to missing data and shifts in the trend, and typically handles outliers well.

Forecasting is a data science task that is central to many activities within an organization. For instance, large organizations like Facebook must engage in capacity planning to efficiently allocate scarce resources and goal setting in order to measure performance relative to a baseline.
