ARIMA Model Structure
To understand how ARIMA models work, you need to see how three key components—autoregressive (AR), integrated (I), and moving average (MA)—combine to model a wide range of time series data. The ARIMA model is denoted as ARIMA(p, d, q), where p, d, and q are integers that describe the structure of the model. Each parameter has a specific role: p controls the AR part, d determines the number of times the data is differenced to achieve stationarity, and q sets the order of the MA part.
The AR (autoregressive) component models the relationship between an observation and a number of lagged observations. The MA (moving average) component models the relationship between an observation and a residual error from a moving average model applied to lagged observations. The integrated (I) part involves differencing the data, which means subtracting the previous observation from the current one; this helps to stabilize the mean of a time series by removing changes in the level of a time series, and thus eliminating trend and seasonality.
You should use differencing (d > 0) when your time series is non-stationary, meaning its statistical properties change over time. Applying the correct degree of differencing can make the series stationary, which is crucial for ARIMA models to perform effectively. If you over-difference, you may introduce unnecessary complexity and noise; if you under-difference, the model may not capture the underlying structure.
ARIMA Parameter Definitions:
- p (AR order): The number of lag observations included in the model; controls how many past values are used to predict the current value.
- d (degree of differencing): The number of times the raw observations are differenced to achieve stationarity; helps remove trends and seasonality.
- q (MA order): The number of lagged forecast errors in the prediction equation; controls how many past errors are used to predict the current value.
