Table 1 Types of data smoothing

From: Time-series analysis with smoothed Convolutional Neural Network

Method

Advantages

Disadvantages

Exponential smoothing/simple exponential smoothing

• Ease of calculation

• Flexibility

• Good performance

• Not capable of managing trends well

Moving average

• Best used when there is slight or no seasonal variation

• Might not accurately reflect the most recent trends

Random walk

• Simple to use

• Can easily handle flows around complicated boundaries

• Does not precisely conserve the mean position of the vorticity in free space

• The computed solutions are noisy due to the statistical errors
