CourseDetails
โข Model Validation Fundamentals: Understanding the importance of model validation, different types of model validation, and the role of forecasting in model validation. โข Data Preprocessing: Data cleaning, normalization, and transformation techniques to prepare data for model validation. โข Model Evaluation Metrics: Measuring the accuracy and performance of forecasting models using metrics such as Mean Absolute Error (MAE), Root Mean Squared Error (RMSE), and Mean Absolute Percentage Error (MAPE). โข Cross-Validation Techniques: Using techniques such as k-fold cross-validation, time series cross-validation, and walk-forward validation to validate models and avoid overfitting. โข Statistical Significance Testing: Conducting hypothesis tests to determine if the differences in model performance are statistically significant. โข Residual Analysis: Analyzing residuals to detect patterns, outliers, and heteroscedasticity, and assess the goodness-of-fit of forecasting models. โข Model Selection and Comparison: Comparing and selecting the best-performing model based on validation results, including techniques such as Akaike Information Criterion (AIC) and Bayesian Information Criterion (BIC). โข Backtesting Strategies: Evaluating the performance of forecasting models using historical data and assessing their robustness and reliability. โข Monitoring and Updating Models: Continuously monitoring and updating models to ensure their performance remains optimal, and detecting and addressing concept drift.
Note: The above units are essential for a Certificate in Forecasting Model Validation program, but the actual content and scope may vary depending on the training provider.
