Automated ARIMA Parameter Selection
Automating the selection of ARIMA parameters is an essential step in building effective time series forecasting models. Manually choosing the orders for the autoregressive (p), differencing (d), and moving average (q) components can be tedious and often relies on expert judgment or trial and error. To address this, practitioners use systematic approaches like grid search, which involves fitting multiple ARIMA models with different combinations of parameters and evaluating their performance. The most common criteria for comparing these models are the Akaike Information Criterion (AIC) and the Bayesian Information Criterion (BIC). Both AIC and BIC measure the trade-off between model fit and complexity: lower values indicate a better model, but overly complex models are penalized to prevent overfitting.
A well-chosen ARIMA model balances complexity and accuracy: a model that is too simple may miss important patterns, while an overly complex model may fit noise rather than signal. Information criteria like AIC and BIC help you find this balance by penalizing unnecessary parameters.

Can you explain what the parameters p, d, and q represent in ARIMA?
How do I interpret the AIC values in the output?
What should I do after finding the best ARIMA order?
Awesome!
