Section 3: Diagnostics and Evaluation

This final section will be about model evaluation and next steps. You will learn how to use Prophet's built-in performance metrics to compare different models in a statistically robust way and how to visualize their performance. Finally, the section will close out with some additional features of Prophet that could be used when deploying Prophet in real-world use cases, where updating models and sharing results are likely to be frequent occurrences.

This section comprises the following chapters:

• Chapter 11, Cross-Validation
• Chapter 12, Performance Metrics
• Chapter 13, Productionalizing Prophet
