HyperTreeNetARForecaster

HyperTreeNetARForecaster

class HyperTreeNetARForecaster(p=2, embedding_dimension=1, hidden_dim=128, dropout=0.1, use_random_projection=True, rp_embed_dim=12, network_learning_rate=0.001, gradient_mode='separate', device='cpu', hessian_method='exact', n_hessian_probes=5, lgb_params=None, num_iterations=100, seed=123)[source]

Hyper-TreeNet-AR forecaster, from the hypertrees-forecasting package.

Direct interface to hypertrees.models.HyperTreeNetAR [1].

Hyper-Trees use a gradient boosted tree (LightGBM) to learn the parameters of a classical time series model as functions of features, rather than forecasting the series directly. HyperTreeNetAR targets a time-varying AR(p) model: the tree produces embeddings that a small neural network maps to the AR parameters, and the AR model generates the forecast.

The interfaced estimator is univariate and models a single series.

Parameters:
pint, optional (default=2)

Maximum number of AR(p) lags.

embedding_dimensionint, optional (default=1)

Embedding dimension of the tree embeddings fed to the network.

hidden_dimint, optional (default=128)

Hidden dimension of the embedding network (MLP).

dropoutfloat, optional (default=0.1)

Dropout rate of the embedding network.

use_random_projectionbool, optional (default=True)

Whether to use random projections for the embeddings.

rp_embed_dimint, optional (default=12)

Dimension of the random projections, only used when use_random_projection=True.

network_learning_ratefloat, optional (default=1e-3)

Learning rate of the embedding network optimizer.

gradient_modestr, optional (default=”separate”)

Gradient computation mode, "separate" or "shared".

devicestr, optional (default=”cpu”)

Device for the embedding network, e.g. "cpu" or "cuda".

hessian_methodstr, optional (default=”exact”)

Method for the Hessian diagonal, "exact" or "gn".

n_hessian_probesint, optional (default=5)

Number of Hutchinson probes, only used when hessian_method="gn".

lgb_paramsdict, optional (default=None)

LightGBM parameters. If None, {"learning_rate": 0.1} is used.

num_iterationsint, optional (default=100)

Number of boosting rounds.

seedint, optional (default=123)

Random seed for the interfaced estimator.

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.
