2. PSF: Forecasting of Univariate Time Series Using the Pattern Sequence-Based Forecasting (PSF) Algorithm Permalink

• Pattern Sequence Based Forecasting (PSF) takes univariate time series data as input and assist to forecast its future values.
• This algorithm forecasts the behavior of time series based on similarity of pattern sequences.
• Initially, clustering is done with the labeling of samples from database.
• The labels associated with samples are then used for forecasting the future behaviour of time series data.
