Transformer

FitInTransform

Transformer wrapper to delay fit to the transform phase.

In panel settings, e.g., time series classification, it can be preferable (or, necessary) to fit and transform on the test set, e.g., interpolate within the same series that interpolation parameters are being fitted on. FitInTransform can be used to wrap any transformer to ensure that fit and transform happen always on the same series, by delaying the fit to the transform batch.

Warning: The use of FitInTransform will typically not be useful, or can constitute a mistake (data leakage) when naively used in a forecasting setting.

python

from sktime.transformations.compose import FitInTransform

estimator = FitInTransform(transformer, skip_inverse_transform=True)

Parameter(2)

transformerEstimator: scikit-learn-like or sktime-like transformer to fit and apply to series.
skip_inverse_transformbool: The FitInTransform will skip inverse_transform by default, of the param skip_inverse_transform=False, then the inverse_transform is calculated by means of transformer.fit(X=X, y=y).inverse_transform(X=X, y=y) where transformer is the inner transformer. So the inner transformer is fitted on the inverse_transform data. This is required to have a non- state changing transform() method of FitInTransform.
