Detection Of Outliers In Time Series Data, Samson Sifael Kiware
Detection Of Outliers In Time Series Data, Samson Sifael Kiware
Master's Theses (2009 -)
This thesis presents the detection of time series outliers. The data set used in this work is provided by the GasDay Project at Marquette University, which produces mathematical models to predict the consumption of natural gas for Local Distribution Companies (LDCs). Flow with no outliers is required to develop and train accurate models. GasDay is using statistical approaches motivated by normally distributed samples such as the 3 -sigma rule and the 5 -sigma rule to aid the experts in detecting outliers in residuals from the models. However, the Jarque-Bera statistical test shows that the residuals from the GasDay models are …
A Comparison Of Prediction Methods Of Functional Autoregressive Time Series, Devin Didericksen
A Comparison Of Prediction Methods Of Functional Autoregressive Time Series, Devin Didericksen
All Graduate Plan B and other Reports, Spring 1920 to Spring 2023
Functional data analysis (FDA) is a relatively new branch of statistics that has seen a lot of expansion recently. With the advent of computer processing power and more efficient software packages we have entered the beginning stages of applying FDA methodology and techniques to data. Part of this undertaking should include an empirical assessment of the effectiveness of some of the tools of FDA, which are sound on theoretical grounds. In a small way, this project helps advance this objective.
This work begins by introducing FDA, scalar prediction techniques, and the functional autoregressive model of order one - FAR(1). Two …
A Time Series Analysis Of The New Jersey Meadowlands Weather And Air Quality Data, Steven Spero
A Time Series Analysis Of The New Jersey Meadowlands Weather And Air Quality Data, Steven Spero
Theses, Dissertations and Culminating Projects
This research applies time series methods to determine relationships among a set of weather variables which are continually monitored in the Hackensack Meadowlands region of northern New Jersey. Weather data includes chemical and atmospheric factors. Chemical factors are Nitrogen Oxide, atmospheric Ozone, Carbon Monoxide, and Carbon Dioxide. Weather factors are wind speed, barometric pressure, air temperature, humidity, and solar radiation. Additionally, traffic density and time of week are brought in as categorical factors. This research attempts to (a) introduce the reader to various time series methodologies, (b) find a significant and efficient model for forecasting Nitrogen Oxide levels, and (c) …
A Spline Kernel Based Smoothing Algorithm : A Comparison Of Methods With A Spatiotemporal Application To Global Climate Fluctuations, Derek Daniel Cyr
A Spline Kernel Based Smoothing Algorithm : A Comparison Of Methods With A Spatiotemporal Application To Global Climate Fluctuations, Derek Daniel Cyr
Legacy Theses & Dissertations (2009 - 2024)
In statistics, smoothing is a technique that attempts to capture the key patterns or trends in data while leaving out the noise that is obscuring them. Nonparametric techniques are well-suited for smoothing as they do not rely on assumptions that the data arise from a given probability distribution.
