TimeSeriesAggregate

TimeSeriesAggregate[tseries,dt]

computes the mean value of tseries over non-overlapping windows of width dt.

TimeSeriesAggregate[tseries,dt,f]

applies the function f to the values of tseries in non-overlapping windows of width dt.

Details

  • TimeSeriesAggregate is often used in time series analysis to compute aggregated statistics like yearly averages or monthly totals.
  • TimeSeriesAggregate breaks the time series tseries into disjoint left-closed and right-open windows of equal width dt and applies a function f to the values in each segment.
  • If there are no values in a segment, the segment is ignored.
  • The time series tseries can be a list of values {x1,x2,}, a list of time-value pairs {{t1,x1},{t2,x2},}, a TimeSeries, EventSeries, or TemporalData.
  • The window width dt can be given as a positive number, a Quantity, or as a date increment.
  • The window specification {dt,align} can be used to determine the alignment of new times within each window.
  • Settings for window alignment align include Left, Center (default), and Right.
  • TimeSeriesAggregate threads pathwise for multipath TemporalData.

Window Widths  (5)

Use windows with width 2:

Equivalently:

Specify the window width in calendar time:

Average over windows spanning five days:

Specify a window width using Quantity:

Average over windows spanning two quarters:

Specify a mixed radix width:

Average over windows spanning three weeks and two days:

Larger windows smooth more:

Moving averages with increasing window width:

Alignment  (4)

Align new times with the center of the windows:

Center alignment is used by default:

Align new times with the right side of the windows:

Align new times with the left side of the windows:

Compare window alignments:

The values are all equivalent:

The times are not:

Properties & Relations  (1)

Independently of the alignment the windows are closed on the left and open on the right:
