Same assignment as a Kaggle Notebook + solution.

In this assignment, we are using Prophet and ARIMA to analyze the number of views for a Wikipedia page on Machine Learning.

Predicting with FB Prophet#

We will train at first 5 months and predict the number of trips for June.

Question 1: What is the prediction of the number of views of the wiki page on January 20? Round to the nearest integer.

  • 4947

  • 3426

  • 5229

  • 2744

# You code here (read-only in a JupyterBook, pls run jupyter-notebook to edit)

Estimate the quality of the prediction with the last 30 points.

# You code here (read-only in a JupyterBook, pls run jupyter-notebook to edit)

Question 2: What is MAPE equal to?

  • 34.5

  • 42.42

  • 5.39

  • 65.91

# You code here (read-only in a JupyterBook, pls run jupyter-notebook to edit)

Question 3: What is MAE equal to?

  • 355

  • 4007

  • 600

  • 903

# You code here (read-only in a JupyterBook, pls run jupyter-notebook to edit)

Predicting with ARIMA#

%matplotlib inline
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import statsmodels.api as sm
from scipy import stats

plt.rcParams["figure.figsize"] = (15, 10)

Question 4: Let’s verify the stationarity of the series using the Dickey-Fuller test. Is the series stationary? What is the p-value?

  • Series is stationary, p_value = 0.107

  • Series is not stationary, p_value = 0.107

  • Series is stationary, p_value = 0.001

  • Series is not stationary, p_value = 0.001

# You code here (read-only in a JupyterBook, pls run jupyter-notebook to edit)

Next, we turn to the construction of the SARIMAX model (sm.tsa.statespace.SARIMAX).
Question 5: What parameters are the best for the model according to the AIC criterion?

  • D = 1, d = 0, Q = 0, q = 2, P = 3, p = 1

  • D = 2, d = 1, Q = 1, q = 2, P = 3, p = 1

  • D = 1, d = 1, Q = 1, q = 2, P = 3, p = 1

  • D = 0, d = 0, Q = 0, q = 2, P = 3, p = 1
