=== What to expect from the complete analysis tool ===
User without experience in statistical analysis will not be able to tell the difference between correctly computed correlations and poorly computed ones. However, a genuinely complete analysis produces graphs which should include most of the following: Interpolation for irregular time series. Change point or breakpoint detection. Outlier detection. Smoothing. Cycles decomposition using a model like ARIMA. Ex. kayak season is in the summer or lunch is at exactly 1pm. Detection of repeated shapes implying similar events that are not cyclical; like dinner is anywhere between 4pm and 10pm and causes a particular 2 hour spike in glucose. Removal of effect of variables found to correlate with this one to show residuals.
