Acerca de
Time series analysis involves identifying patterns, trends, and seasonal variations in data collected at specific intervals, with applications in finance, economics, and weather forecasting. A critical challenge in time series analysis is handling missing data, which can arise from non-response, errors, or equipment malfunctions. Missing data can bias results and reduce accuracy, necessitating effective techniques such as deletion, imputation (e.g., mean, regression, or multiple imputation), and algorithms capable of handling missing values natively. The choice of method depends on the nature of the missing data—Missing Completely at Random (MCAR), Missing at Random (MAR), or Missing Not at Random (MNAR). Advanced techniques like regressive, autoregressive, and vector autoregressive models have been employed for imputation in various domains, including healthcare and environmental monitoring.
This paper introduces a novel Deep Neural Network (DNN) approach for cleaning and filtering time series data, outperforming nine classical techniques such as linear interpolation, spline, and moving mean/median. The proposed DNN, a 1D convolutional autoencoder, processes noisy data directly without requiring preprocessing steps like outlier removal. Evaluated on temperature time series data from a compressor, the DNN achieved a Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) of 6°C, significantly lower than the best classical method (45°C). The DNN’s ability to accurately impute missing data and follow trends, even with large gaps, demonstrates its robustness and superiority over traditional methods. This study highlights the potential of DNNs in enhancing time series data analysis and imputation.
