Deep Learning for Time Series Cookbook

By: Vitor Cerqueira, Luís Roque

Overview of this book

Most organizations exhibit a time-dependent structure in their processes, including fields such as finance. By leveraging time series analysis and forecasting, these organizations can make informed decisions and optimize their performance. Accurate forecasts help reduce uncertainty and enable better planning of operations. Unlike traditional approaches to forecasting, deep learning can process large amounts of data and help derive complex patterns. Despite its increasing relevance, getting the most out of deep learning requires significant technical expertise. This book guides you through applying deep learning to time series data with the help of easy-to-follow code recipes. You’ll cover time series problems, such as forecasting, anomaly detection, and classification. This deep learning book will also show you how to solve these problems using different deep neural network architectures, including convolutional neural networks (CNNs) or transformers. As you progress, you’ll use PyTorch, a popular deep learning framework based on Python to build production-ready prediction solutions. By the end of this book, you'll have learned how to solve different time series tasks with deep learning using the PyTorch ecosystem.

Exceedance probability forecasting with an LSTM

This recipe describes creating a probabilistic deep learning model to tackle exceedance tasks with a multivariate time series.

Getting ready

We’ll continue our example with the solar radiation dataset. Here’s the data module that we defined in the previous recipe:

N_LAGS = 14
HORIZON = 7
mvtseries = pd.read_csv('assets/daily_multivariate_timeseries.csv',
        parse_dates=['datetime'],
        index_col='datetime')
datamodule = ExceedanceDataModule(data=mvtseries,
        batch_size=64, test_size=0.3)

Now, let’s see how to create a classifier using an LSTM neural network and PyTorch’s LightningModule.

How to do it…

We will set up a binary classification using PyTorch Lightning’s LightningModule. Here’s the constructor and...
