NAME

       Statistics::Descriptive::Smoother::Exponential - Implement exponential smoothing

VERSION

       version 3.0801

SYNOPSIS

         use Statistics::Descriptive::Smoother;
         my $smoother = Statistics::Descriptive::Smoother->instantiate({
                  method   => 'exponential',
                  coeff    => 0.5,
                  data     => [1, 2, 3, 4, 5],
                  samples  => [110, 120, 130, 140, 150],
           });
         my @smoothed_data = $smoother->get_smoothed_data();

DESCRIPTION

       This module implement the exponential smoothing algorithm to smooth the trend of a series
       of statistical data.

       This algorithm works well for unsmoothed data build with big number of samples. If this is
       not the case you might consider using the "Weighted Exponential" one.

       The algorithm implements the following formula:

       S(0) = X(0)

       S(t) = C*S(t-1) + (1-C)*X(t)

       where:

       •  t = index in the series

       •  S(t) = smoothed series value at position t

       •  C = smoothing coefficient. Value in the [0;1] range. 0 means that the series is not
          smoothed at all, while 1 the series is universally equal to the initial unsmoothed
          value.

       •  X(t) = unsmoothed series value at position t

METHODS

       $stats->get_smoothed_data();
            Returns a copy of the smoothed data array.
