Is ARMA better than just AR or MA?
ARMA is the combination of the AR and MA models. ARMA models cover both aspects of AR and MA. The ARMA model predicts the future values based on both the previous values and errors. Thus ARMA has better performance than AR and MA models alone.
How do I choose between AR and MA model?
The primary difference between an AR and MA model is based on the correlation between time series objects at different time points. The covariance between x(t) and x(t-n) is zero for MA models. However, the correlation of x(t) and x(t-n) gradually declines with n becoming larger in the AR model.
What is AR and MA in ARIMA model?
The AR part of ARIMA indicates that the evolving variable of interest is regressed on its own lagged (i.e., prior) values. The MA part indicates that the regression error is actually a linear combination of error terms whose values occurred contemporaneously and at various times in the past.
What does an ARMA model tell us?
ARMA is a model of forecasting in which the methods of autoregression (AR) analysis and moving average (MA) are both applied to time-series data that is well behaved. In ARMA it is assumed that the time series is stationary and when it fluctuates, it does so uniformly around a particular time.
How do you determine ARMA?
Choosing the Best ARMA(p,q) Model
In order to determine which order of the ARMA model is appropriate for a series, we need to use the AIC (or BIC) across a subset of values for , and then apply the Ljung-Box test to determine if a good fit has been achieved, for particular values of .
