|---|---|
| Preparing Data for Model Fitting | Objective: Prepare time-series data for model fitting by identifying trends and applying data transformations.
|
| Model Selection and Fitting | Objective: Use diagnostic tools to select a group of suitable candidate ARIMA and GARCH models for a given time series. Identify, create and fit candidate time-series models to data.
|
| Evaluating Model Appropriateness | Objective: Compute and evaluate model diagnostics to ensure model correctness, suitability and reliability.
|
| Forecasting and Simulation | Objective: Forecast models to predict future data. Simulate sample trajectories and statistics by applying Monte Carlo simulation techniques.
