A Device for the Smoothing of Time Series

When sample estimates are plotted in time series, part of the irregularity displayed by the plotted points is chargeable to sampling errors in the individual estimates. This paper describes a method for smoothing the series to eliminate effects of the sampling errors. Fluctuations that can be ascribed legitimately to actual changes in the "true" values are retained.
