Refers to the AutoRegressive Integrated Moving Average model used in time series modeling both for data description and for forecasting. This model generalizes the ARMA model by including a term for differencing, which is useful for removing trends and handling some types of non-stationarity.

ARIMA model with flat forecasts

=-385.31 AIC=774.62 AICc=775.19 BIC=776.98 & I get flat forecasts.I have tried using drift but that only helps when forecasting for 2016 & flattens 2017 onward. … Is there something that can be done to overcome this.I have also tried the similar exercise in SAS using proc UCM & that seems to generate forecasts better than the auto.arima. Can someone help out? …

Why am I getting flat time series forecasts from most of the techniques?

models: Holt Winters smoothing, TBATS Smoothing, ARIMA, and AR Neural Nets with the following functions in R, using the "forecast" package: HoltWinters, tbats, auto.arima, nnetar I forecasted 36 periods … The following results: My question is why does the HoltWinters seem to be the only meaningful forecast. I have enough data that getting flat lines for all the other forecasts seems odd. …

Choosing Between Intercept-Only and AR-NN Models: Justified to not use the model with the lo...

Of course, it is unintuitive that a flat, non-varying, forecasts "explains variation" better than a variable NN forecast. … It is extremely common for flat historical mean forecasts to outperform more complex ones, whether ARIMA or ML-based: Is it unusual for the MEAN to outperform ARIMA? …

auto.arima is showing same forecasted values in R studio

Thus, a flat forecast is exactly what an ARIMA(0,1,0) model does. … Fitting an exponential smoothing model, incidentally, also yields a flat forecast: plot(forecast(ets(Russia_ShareofGDP_TS),h=16)) Now, I often argue that a flat forecast my well be the best forecast there …

ARIMA Forecast , Future prediction growth coming in constant with same growth rate

Your question is extremely similar to many questions about "flat forecasts" from ARIMA models. Please take a look through those earlier threads. … In your case, the ARIMA forecast converges quickly to the linear trend. Note also that ARIMA - and any other method as well - attempts to separate the signal from the noise. …
