Abstract
Time-series forecasting is a significant discipline of data modeling where past observations of the same variable are analyzed to predict the future values of the time series. Its prominence lies in different use cases where it is required, including economic, weather, stock price, business development, and other use cases. In this work, a review was conducted on the methods of analyzing time series starting from the traditional linear modeling techniques until the automated machine learning (AutoML) frameworks, including deep learning models. The objective of this review article is to support identifying the time-series forecasting challenge and the different techniques to meet the challenge. This work can be additionally an assist and a reference for researchers and industries demanding to use AutoML to solve the problem of forecasting. It identifies the gaps of the previous works and techniques used to solve the problem of forecasting time series.
