What does R offer?
In Python there's SARIMAX and Prophet, interested in what R has to offer.
Also interested in a decent Grid Search for time series.
- thenipper 6y agoYou can use Prophet in R for sure
- minimaxir 6y agoR also has prophet, with some native ggplot2 integrations. https://facebook.github.io/prophet/docs/quick_start.html#r-api https://facebook.github.io/prophet/docs/quick_start.html#r-a...
- jerjerjer 6y agoThanks, but I'm more interested in what R has on time series, which Python does not. Just checked Prophet source code and it looks like there are actually 2 implementations in the same repo: one for R and one for Python. I thought it would have been the usual C/C++ implementation with 2 bindings. I wonder why they chose to develop it this way.
- dash2 6y agoR has the builtin ts library, and also see this Task View with literally hundreds of packages: https://cran.r-project.org/web/views/TimeSeries.html https://cran.r-project.org/web/views/TimeSeries.html
- bllguo 6y agotidyverts and fable are very nice, though I'd also be interested in seeing what others have to say, as I don't do much timeseries analysis. Prophet pretty much covers all my use cases thus far
