Fernando Rojas is an Associate Professor at the University of Granada, Spain, where he received his Ph.D. in 2004. His research focuses on signal processing, artificial intelligence techniques for optimization, including evolutionary computation, fuzzy logic, neural networks etc., and the study of computer architectures for parallel processing in complex problems, such as time series prediction. He has published over 25 articles in JCR-indexed journals. A former coordinator of the Master’s Degree in Computer and Network Engineering at the University of Granada, he has been the secretary of the Master’s Degree in Data Science and Computer Engineering since 2014, and the secretary of the Department of Architecture and Computer Technology at the University of Granada since 2018.

Luis Javier Herrera is an Associate Professor at the University of Granada, Spain, where he received his Ph.D. in 2006. His research focuses on machine learning techniques (fuzzy logic, deep learning, genetic algorithms, etc.), and on their optimization and application over a wide range of scientific problems related to classification, approximation and time series prediction, sometimes requiring high-performance computing systems. These applications include relevant problems in several fields such as biomedicine, bioinformatics, biochemistry, physics, optics, etc. He has published more than 40 papers in JCR-indexed journals. Over the last several years, he has (co-)led a number of research projects backed by national and regional funding entities.

Héctor Pomares has been a Full Professor at the University of Granada, Spain, since 2001. He has published more than 50 articles in JCR-indexed journals and contributed over 150 papers to international conferences. He has led or participated in 15 national projects, one independent R&D Excellence project and 13 contracts for innovative research through the University of Granada Foundation Company and the Office of Transfer of Research Results. He has been a visiting researcher at numerous prestigious research centers outside Spain. He is currently a member of the editorial board of the Journal of Applied Mathematics (JCR-indexed) and the coordinator of the Master’s Degree in Computer & Network Engineering at the University of Granada.

Ignacio Rojas is a Full Professor at the Department of Computer Architecture and Computer Technology, University of Granada, Spain. Throughout his research career, he has served as a principal investigator or otherwise participated in more than 20 research projects obtained in competitive tenders, including projects for the European Union, the I+D+I Spanish National Government and the Unit of Excellence of the Ministry of Innovation, Science and Enterprise Junta de Andalucía. He has published more than 260 scientific contributions listed in the Web of Science, including 90 articles in JCR-indexed journals.

De la contraportada

This book presents a selection of peer-reviewed contributions on the latest advances in time series analysis, presented at the International Conference on Time Series and Forecasting (ITISE 2019), held in Granada, Spain, on September 25-27, 2019. The first two parts of the book present theoretical contributions on statistical and advanced mathematical methods, and on econometric models, financial forecasting and risk analysis. The remaining four parts include practical contributions on time series analysis in energy; complex/big data time series and forecasting; time series analysis with computational intelligence; and time series analysis and prediction for other real-world problems. Given this mix of topics, readers will acquire a more comprehensive perspective on the field of time series analysis and forecasting.
