ARIMA | |||
Description | ARIMA stands for Auto-Regressive Integrated Moving Average. It is used for forecasting on stationary data. | ||
Why to use | ARIMA captures both autoregressive and moving average components, which provides a systematic way to deal with non-stationary data by differencing. Also it is effective for predicting future values based on past trends and patterns in the data. | ||

ARIMA or Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average is an extension of ARMA model. The ARIMA model can handle non-stationary data, that is time dependent data more effectively. ARIMA converts the non-stationary data into stationary data by performing differencing.
Differencing refers to subtracting the previous observation from the current observations. The differencing is performed until the data becomes stationary.
