Properties of time series

The properties of time series

Seasonality: does the data display a clear periodic pattern?
Trend: does the data follow a consistent upwards or downwards slope?
Noise: are there any outlier points or missing values that are not consistent with the rest of the data?

Time series decomposition

import statsmodels.api as sm
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
from pylab import rcParams

rcParams['figure.figsize'] = 11, 9
decomposition = sm.tsa.seasonal_decompose(
                co2_levels['co2'])
fig = decomposition.plot()

plt.show()

A plot of time series decomposition on the CO2 data

Time series decomposition

Extracting components from time series decomposition

print(dir(decomposition))

['__class__', '__delattr__', '__dict__',
 ... 'plot', 'resid', 'seasonal', 'trend']

print(decomposition.seasonal)

Seasonality component in time series

decomp_seasonal = decomposition.seasonal

ax = decomp_seasonal.plot(figsize=(14, 2))
ax.set_xlabel('Date')
ax.set_ylabel('Seasonality of time series')
ax.set_title('Seasonal values of the time series')

plt.show()

ax = decomp_trend.plot(figsize=(14, 2))
ax.set_xlabel('Date')
ax.set_ylabel('Trend of time series')
ax.set_title('Trend values of the time series')
