Machine Learning for Time Series with Python: Python to forecast, predict, and monitor time series with modern ML and foundation models at scale

Machine Learning for Time Series, Second Edition offers a practical guide to building forecasting systems with the most important libraries such as sktime, darts, Nixtla's skforecast and mlforecast, and AutoGluon among others. Starting with the fundamentals, you’ll learn how to characterize datasets, measure and validate prediction performance, engineer features, and build forecasting pipelines.

The book covers classical methods such as ARIMA and Theta, machine learning methods such as gradient boosting, and deep learning with recurrent, latest Transformer-based (like Crossformer), or convolutional (TimesNet) models. We'll apply foundation models such as TimesFM, Chronos, and OpenTSLM, or generative approaches like Chain-of-Charts, and uncertainty quantification with conformal prediction such as GARCH conformal, conformalized quantile regression, or split conformal. We’ll also dive into production infrastructure like feature stores, model tracking, and monitoring and scaling strategies, as well as classification, self-supervised encoding, spatiotemporal modeling, handling irregular time series with ODEs, survival analysis, and causal inference.

Through practical examples, you’ll learn how to evaluate models, detect and handle anomalies and drift, and choose approaches that match data and operational needs.
