Periodization
Periodization is the process of dividing a time series into periods. This is a common operation in time series analysis, and is used to identify patterns and trends in the data.
Types of Periodization
There are several types of periodization, each with its own advantages and disadvantages. Some common types of periodization include:
- Moving Average: This involves taking a moving average of the data over a specified period. This helps to smooth out the data and reduce noise, making it easier to identify patterns.
- Seasonal Adjustment: This involves adjusting the data for seasonal patterns.
- Holiday Adjustment: This involves adjusting the data for holidays or special events.
Advantages of Periodization
- Improved Accuracy: By dividing the data into periods, we can better capture the underlying patterns and trends in the data.
- Better Interpretation: Periodization allows us to identify patterns and trends that may not be apparent in the raw data.
- Reduced Noise: By dividing the data into periods, we can reduce noise and improve the accuracy of the analysis.
Disadvantages of Periodization
- Increased Complexity: Periodization can be more complex than the original data, as it involves dividing the data into periods.
- Increased Data Size: Periodization can increase the size of the data, as it involves dividing the data into periods.
- Increased Computational Complexity: Periodization can increase the computational complexity of the analysis, as it involves dividing the data into periods.
Classical JP
The term Classical Japanese refers to over 1000 years of language developement with focus on the works that were written in it. The basis for this language is the language of Heian period, when the language and its literature flourished. Therefore most of the works I'll be referencing will be from this exact period, while some works from other periods will be included as well. Starting from periodization and introduction of the classic literature, this page will go through pretty much everything you need to get started on reading Classical Japanese works. Make sure to take everything with a grain of salt, old language and its developement is a tough thing. Let's see how things will work out.
Kanji
Kanji is the study of the Japanese writing system. On this page I'm going to explain the kanji of standart Japanese (標準語) from A to Z using kanji terminology. We will start at vowels and consonants, then work our way up to pitch accent and rules of 連濁.
