There exist several data-driven approaches that enable us model time series data including traditional regression-based modeling approaches (i.e., ARIMA). Recently, deep learning techniques have been introduced and explored in the context of time series analysis and prediction. A major research question to ask is the performance of these many variations of deep learning techniques in predicting time series data. This paper compares two prominent deep learning modeling techniques. The Recurrent Neural Network (RNN)-based Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) and the convolutional Neural Network (CNN)-based Temporal Convolutional Networks (TCN) are compared and their performance and training time are reported. According to our experimental results, both modeling techniques per-form comparably having TCN-based models outperform LSTM slightly. Moreover, the CNN-based TCN model builds a stable model faster than the RNN-based LSTM models.
