Time series models for ecologists (TSME02) https://www.prstatistics.com/course/time-series-models-for-ecologists-tsme02/ This course will run form the 1st - 5th October 2018 in Glasgow City Centre and will be delivered by Dr Andrew Parnell. Course Overview: This course will cover time series analysis with a particular focus on applications in ecology. All methods will be illustrated using the free, open-source software package R. Time Series data are ubiquitous in the physical sciences, and models for their behaviour enable scientists to understand temporal dynamics and predict future values. Participants will be taught a wide range of suitable time series models for both discrete and continuous time systems. The course will cover a range of techniques from simple exponential smoothing and ARIMA modelling approaches up to complex Bayesian models. Participants will gain a deeper understanding of the models being fitted, and be able interpret the results appropriately. Participants are encouraged to bring their own data sets for discussion with the course tutors. Monday 1st – Classes from 09:30 to 17:30 Class 1: Introduction, example data sets Class 2: Revision: likelihood and inference Class 3: Revision: linear regression, GLMs, and exponential smoothing Tutor-guided practical: Linear regression GLMs and exponential smoothing for time series Self-guided practical: Analysing some example data sets Tuesday 2nd – Classes from 09:30 to 17:30 Class 1: Auto-regressive models and random walks Class 2: Moving averages and ARMA Class 3: Integrated models and ARIMA Tutor-guided practical: The forecast package in R Self-guided practical: Fitting ARIMA models with forecast Wednesday 3rd Classes from 09:30 to 17:30 Class 1: Including covariates: ARIMAX models Class 2: Model choice and forecasting Class 3: Creating bespoke time series models using Bayes Tutor-guided practical: A walkthrough example time series analysis Self-guided practical: Finding the best time series model for your data set Thursday 4th – Classes from 09:30 to 17:30 Class 1: Modelling with seasonality and the frequency domain Class 2: Stochastic volatility models and heteroskedasticity Class 3: Fitting Bayesian time series models Tutor-guided practical: Fitting time series models in Stan Self-guided practical: Start analysing your own data set Friday 5th – Classes from 09:30 to 16:00 Class 1: Models for continuous time series: Brownian Motion and Ornstien Uhlenbeck processes Class 2: State-space and change point models Class 3: Multivariate time series models and co-integration Open session: analyse your own data Email [log in to unmask] with any questions.
