Codeless Time Series Analysis with KNIME

By: KNIME AG, Corey Weisinger, Maarit Widmann, Daniele Tonini

Overview of this book

This book will take you on a practical journey, teaching you how to implement solutions for many use cases involving time series analysis techniques. This learning journey is organized in a crescendo of difficulty, starting from the easiest yet effective techniques applied to weather forecasting, then introducing ARIMA and its variations, moving on to machine learning for audio signal classification, training deep learning architectures to predict glucose levels and electrical energy demand, and ending with an approach to anomaly detection in IoT. There’s no time series analysis book without a solution for stock price predictions and you’ll find this use case at the end of the book, together with a few more demand prediction use cases that rely on the integration of KNIME Analytics Platform and other external tools. By the end of this time series book, you’ll have learned about popular time series analysis techniques and algorithms, KNIME Analytics Platform, its time series extension, and how to apply both to common use cases.

Summary

Deep learning is a massive topic, with entire books dedicated to it. This chapter on LSTM units ends our adventures into this topic, but I hope your interest has been piqued and that you leave feeling ready to experiment with these types of models on your own.

By completing this chapter, you should be able to reshape your time series data in ways that suit your model requirements according to your domain expertise. You’ll find that architecture design is one of the hardest parts of forecasting with deep learning.

In Chapter 11, Anomaly Detection – Predicting Failure with No Failure Examples, you’ll learn how to use some of the forecasting techniques we’ve learned so far to detect anomalous data points or data drift for use cases such as machine maintenance.
