ESRNNForecaster

class ESRNNForecaster(hidden_size=10, num_layer=5, season1_length=12, season2_length=6, seasonality_type='single', window=10, pred_len=3, stride=1, batch_size=32, num_epochs=1000, criterion=None, optimizer='Adam', lr=0.1, optimizer_kwargs=None, criterion_kwargs=None, custom_dataset_train=None, custom_dataset_pred=None)[source]

Exponential Smoothing Recurrant Neural Network.

This model combines Exponential Smoothing (ES) and (LSTM) networks for time series forecasting. ES is used to balance the level and seasonality of the series. This method has been proposed in [1].

Parameters:
hidden_sizeint

Number of features in the hidden state

num_layerint

Number of layers

seasonality_typestring

Type of seasonality_type, could be zero ,single or double

season1_lengthint

Period of season 1

season2_lengthint

Period of season 2

strideint

stride for sliding window

batch_sizeint

size of batch during training

num_epochsint

number of epochs during training

criteriontorch.nn Loss Function, default=torch.nn.MSELoss

loss function to be used for training

criterion_kwargsdict, default=None

keyword arguments to pass to criterion

optimizertorch.optim.Optimizer, default=torch.optim.Adam

optimizer to be used for training

optimizer_kwargsdict, default=None

keyword arguments to pass to optimizer

windowint

Size of Input window, default=10

pred_lenint

Prediction length, i.e., the number of future time steps to forecast. Defines the network output dimension, default=3

lrint

Learning rate for training

Attributes:
cutoff

Cut-off = “present time” state of forecaster.

fh

Forecasting horizon that was passed.

is_fitted

Whether fit has been called.

state

State of the estimator.
