Overview of this book

The Python time-series ecosystem is a huge and challenging topic to tackle, especially for time series since there are so many new libraries and models. Machine Learning for Time Series, Second Edition, aims to deepen your understanding of time series by providing a comprehensive overview of popular Python time-series packages and helping you build better predictive systems. This fully updated second edition starts by re-introducing the basics of time series and then helps you get to grips with traditional autoregressive models as well as modern non-parametric models. By observing practical examples and the theory behind them, you will gain a deeper understanding of loading time-series datasets from any source and a variety of models, such as deep learning recurrent neural networks, causal convolutional network models, and gradient boosting with feature engineering. This book will also help you choose the right model for the right problem by explaining the theory behind several useful models. New updates include a chapter on forecasting and extracting signals on financial markets and case studies with relevant examples from operations management, digital marketing, and healthcare. By the end of this book, you should feel at home with effectively analyzing and applying machine learning methods to time series.

Working with time series in Python

In this section, we’ll give a brief introduction to Python and its ecosystem for time series. We’ll go through a few of the basics with data loading for time series and plotting.

Python has a lot of tools for time series, such as datetime, time, and calendar. At the same time, there are many different data types which can be highly confusing for beginners.

These are important data types for time series:

  • datetime: This is a Python standard library class. It represents a single moment in time.
  • date: This is a Python standard library class. It represents a single day.
  • time: This is a Python standard library class. It represents a single time of day.
  • timedelta: This is a Python standard library class. It represents a duration of time.
  • tzinfo: This is a Python standard library class. It represents a time zone.
  • relativedelta: This is a third-party library class. It represents a duration of time relative to another datetime.
