Using time series analysis from project setup to report building

In this section, you will implement a practical example that builds two models to predict the future trend of a time series describing arrivals at tourist accommodation establishments. The dataset shows the trend from 1990 to 2022; thus, it contains a breakpoint in correspondence in April 2020, when the COVID-19 pandemic began.

In the example, you will build two models, one which considers the breakpoint at the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic and another which does not. You will compare the two models in Comet to establish which one performs better.

The full code of the example described in this section is available at the following link: https://github.com/PacktPublishing/Comet-for-Data-Science/tree/main/11.

You can write the code using the editor or the notebook you prefer. In this example, you will use Deepnote, a popular online notebook, which is fully integrated with Comet.

You will focus on the following...
