In this article, Box-Cox and Yeo-Johnson transformation models are applied to two time series datasets of monthly temperature averages to improve the forecast ability. An application algorithm was proposed to transform the positive original responses using the first model and the stationary responses using the second model to improve the nonparametric estimation of the functional time series. The Box-Cox model contributed to improving the results of the nonparametric estimation of the original data, but the results become somewhat confusing after attempting to make the transformed response variable stationary in the mean, while the functional time series predictions were more accurate using the transformed stationary datasets using the Yeo-Johnson model.
The aim of this paper is to select an appropriate ARIMA model for the time series after transforming the original responses. Box-Cox and Yeo-Johnson power transformation models were used on the response variables of two time series datasets of average temperatures and then diagnosed and built the appropriate ARIMA models for each time-series. The authors treat the results of the model fitting as a package in an attempt to decide and choose the best model by diagnosing the effect of the data transformation on the response normality, significant of estimated model parameters, forecastability and the behavior of the residuals. The authors conclude that the Yeo-Johnson model was more flexible in smoothing the data and contributedto accessing a simple model with good forecastability.
