Predict churn in a range of time after observation window is finished

I'm building a churn model. Each user's historic data (observation window) is a constant period, but each observation window contains different dates. For example the next figure: Let's say, that the ...

Determine a robust trend from noisy time series data, when start and end years have a material effect

I have about 20 years of data, each year has a number of observations. If I put a linear trend through the data, I get a trend, and this trend differs based on the the choice of start and end year, ...

What are the potential problems with a rolling regression?

I have two time series that co-move, say a currency and a commodity, and the currency is highly impacted by the commodity, but also other factors. I'd like to determine when the currency becomes too ...

How does choosing an even window size actually add a cyclical component to the model?

I am new to Time Series Analysis. Say, we have a time series $(y_{t})_{t}$ that we want to filter with a moving average filter. I have been told that we should choose the window size $L$ of the filter ...

Rolling autocorrelation vs whole series autocorrelation

Suppose we have some financial time series. When we calculate the standard ACF, $\mu$ is considered as the average of all series' values. However, if we have a volatile series, the average can be ...

Use sliding window to find variance for seasonal time series in R

I would like to estimate the variance of a time series. Say, if the time series has a period of 24, and I want to estimate the variance using $$ \sigma_t^2 = \frac{1}{2k+1} \sum^k_{-k} (y_{t+24k} - \...

What is the probabilistic meaning of moving window statistics?

Moving window statistics (see this, for example) are sample statistics calculated over moving/rolling windows over a time-series. For example, given the time-series $\{x_1,x_2,\dots\}$ one can ...

A question about an estimation using moving average and moving standard deviation?

Given a time series data $\{X_t\}_{t = 0}^\infty$, what does its moving average and moving standard deviation estimate when there is no assumption that $\mathbb{E}[X_t] = \text{const}, \forall t$? ...

Rolling autoregression coefficient

I was reading a paper and I saw that they run a 3-year rolling autoregression for 20 years (using for example 2013-2016 as trailing and 2016-2019 as forwarding) and got only one beta coefficient and ...

what is it an activity window in churn model?

I know that in a churn model many times you define an observation window (historic data) and a performance window (also dependent window, or response window). I have read an article that the authors (...

What is it called when an outlier falls out of a rolling window statistical calculation?

I have a time series $X_t \sim N(0, 1)$. There is a single outlier at index 347, at 8.5 standard deviations from the mean. If I now compute a rolling window standard deviation of $X_t$ with window ...
