Intro to Time Series
Spectral analysis is a technique used to identify and analyze the frequency components of a time series by decomposing it into its constituent sine and cosine waves. This method is essential for understanding periodic patterns and behaviors in data, allowing researchers to uncover hidden structures and periodicities. By leveraging Fourier analysis, spectral analysis can provide insights into the underlying processes that generate time series data and assess their characteristics using periodograms.
