Question 1.
What does ACF stand for?
Show hintHide hint
Look at the measurement related to time series correlation.
Question 2.
What does PACF measure?
Show hintHide hint
Think about measuring direct relationships in lags.
3Question 3.
What does the ACF measure in time series?
- Correlation with future values
- Correlation with past values
- Seasonality
Show hintHide hint
Think about how past values affect the current value.
4Question 4.
True or False: PACF can help determine the order of MA models.
- True
- False
Show hintHide hint
Remember which function addresses lag control directly.
Question 5.
You have a time series dataset with ACF values showing significant correlation up to lag 5, and a PACF showing significant correlation at lag 1 and none afterwards. How would you go about modeling this?
Show hintHide hint
Evaluate how ACF and PACF data reflect the dependencies when considering your model setup.
Question 6.
Recent data shows sharp declines in the ACF past lag 3, while the PACF shows substantial spikes up to lag 2. What type of model would be appropriate for this dataset?
Show hintHide hint
Pay attention to cut-off points in the ACF and PACF to guide your model choice.
