Thank you so much! I did it! Actually, I have an assignment about time series prediction which I have never touched before and this assignment is determining whether I could get this job. Now I got it after following your step, thank you so much!
Tested it today 2019/10/30 and some minor differences, for instance it plotted the time of day the page was most active, also the 'count' variable was missing, so I used 'views' and it got to basically the same results. Thanks for all these great RStudio videos.
Hi, this is the first video that demonstrates the workings of prophet, so thanks for that. Just a thought, I've been using prophet extensively for forecasting sales and more often than not it has disappointed me. I found its capabilities shine over other methods only in case when series is very ideal. Not sure if I'm missing something or it's actually a problem. Did you try prophet on any other complex series? Also, you did not split the dataset into test and train to calculate accuracy, any specific reason for that?
Thanks a lot for a nice explanation of the usage of prophet package. I have a question. If the data is not stationary, can we still continue building time series model using prophet (without making it stationary - as we do in arima model) ?
The wikipediatrend package currently has no server providing any page view information. Use package pageviews for recent (2016+) information. Older information hopefully available again soon.
Good stuff. Can we use this model to predict stock market index like SENXEX, NIFTY etc? One more query, if we want to add a variable like Govt. in power, ie we wd be having - Date, Senxex/Nifty closing index, Govt in power then how to go about that... thanks
Sir, You are amazing as always. Don't know what to say. I wish i could thank you more and more. This actually is an amazing package by facebook and it worked like a gem. you are the living God. Salute to your content, expertise, precision, dedication. My role model. I aspire to pursue my career as a data scientist in near future. Need your blessings and guidance. Do revert if you see my message, please. Thanks a lot Guru Ji.
Hi Sir, Can you please help me? I have one categorical exogenous column which contains 3 fields in it. I am trying to forecast using SARIMAX with R Code. Requesting you to please do refer some links or material?

Hello sir, Nice explanation..I have a question . Lets say we are forecasting for number of units sold in an inventory and as there will be many products is there any specific package that can be used to forecast on each product or should we use a for loop?? Thank you
Can u pass the parameter and based on parameter selection, can we predict the value? So we will get overall next 365 days prediction or based on some attribute selection seperately

In the video I showed using plots how log helps to see the patterns. But if you have data where without log transformation, patterns are clearly visible, then you don't need it.

I'm seeing this comment today. But thanks for the feedback. It certainly has many good features, however I like trying several different options.
Good lecture sir, how to differentiate the graph for Original and forecasted values?
In the forecast there are no black dots representing actual values.
Thanks a lot for a nice explanation of the usage of prophet package. I have a question. If the data is not stationary, can we still continue building time series model using prophet (without making it stationary - as we do in arima model) ?
