TimeSeriesForestRegressor

class TimeSeriesForestRegressor(min_interval=3, n_estimators=200, n_jobs=1, random_state=None)

Time series forest regressor.

A time series forest is an ensemble of decision trees built on random intervals.

Overview: For input data with n series of length m, for each tree:

• sample sqrt(m) intervals,

• find mean, std and slope for each interval, concatenate to form new data set,

• build decision tree on new data set.

Ensemble the trees with averaged probability estimates.

This implementation deviates from the original in minor ways. It samples intervals with replacement and does not use the splitting criteria tiny refinement described in [1]. This is an intentionally stripped down, non configurable version for use as a HIVE-COTE component.

Parameters

n_estimatorsint, default=200

Number of estimators.

min_intervalint, default=3

Minimum width of an interval.

n_jobsint, default=1

The number of jobs to run in parallel for both fit and predict. -1 means using all processors.

random_stateint, default=None

Attributes

n_classesint

Number of classes.

n_intervalsint

Number of intervals.

classes_list

List of classes for a given problem.

apply(X)

Apply trees in the forest to X, return leaf indices.

Parameters

X{array-like, sparse matrix} of shape (n_samples, n_features)

The input samples. Internally, its dtype will be converted to dtype=np.float32. If a sparse matrix is provided, it will be converted into a sparse csr_matrix.

Returns

X_leavesndarray of shape (n_samples, n_estimators)

For each datapoint x in X and for each tree in the forest, return the index of the leaf x ends up in.

check_is_fitted()

Check if the estimator has been fitted.

Raises

NotFittedError

If the estimator has not been fitted yet.

clone()

Obtain a clone of the object with same hyper-parameters.

A clone is a different object without shared references, in post-init state. This function is equivalent to returning sklearn.clone of self. Equal in value to type(self)(**self.get_params(deep=False)).

Returns

instance of type(self), clone of self (see above)

clone_tags(estimator, tag_names=None)

clone/mirror tags from another estimator as dynamic override.

Parameters

estimatorestimator inheriting from :class:BaseEstimator

tag_namesstr or list of str, default = None

Names of tags to clone. If None then all tags in estimator are used as tag_names.

Returns

Self

Reference to self.

Notes

Changes object state by setting tag values in tag_set from estimator as dynamic tags in self.

classmethod create_test_instance(parameter_set='default')

Construct Estimator instance if possible.

Parameters

parameter_setstr, default=”default”

Name of the set of test parameters to return, for use in tests. If no special parameters are defined for a value, will return “default” set.

Returns

instanceinstance of the class with default parameters

Notes

get_test_params can return dict or list of dict. This function takes first or single dict that get_test_params returns, and constructs the object with that.

classmethod create_test_instances_and_names(parameter_set='default')

Create list of all test instances and a list of names for them.

Parameters

parameter_setstr, default=”default”

Name of the set of test parameters to return, for use in tests. If no special parameters are defined for a value, will return “default” set.

Returns

objslist of instances of cls

i-th instance is cls(**cls.get_test_params()[i])

nameslist of str, same length as objs

i-th element is name of i-th instance of obj in tests convention is {cls.__name__}-{i} if more than one instance otherwise {cls.__name__}

parameter_setstr, default=”default”

Name of the set of test parameters to return, for use in tests. If no special parameters are defined for a value, will return “default” set.

decision_path(X)

Return the decision path in the forest.

New in version 0.18.

Parameters

X{array-like, sparse matrix} of shape (n_samples, n_features)

The input samples. Internally, its dtype will be converted to dtype=np.float32. If a sparse matrix is provided, it will be converted into a sparse csr_matrix.

Returns

indicatorsparse matrix of shape (n_samples, n_nodes)

Return a node indicator matrix where non zero elements indicates that the samples goes through the nodes. The matrix is of CSR format.

n_nodes_ptrndarray of shape (n_estimators + 1,)

The columns from indicator[n_nodes_ptr[i]:n_nodes_ptr[i+1]] gives the indicator value for the i-th estimator.

property feature_importances_

The impurity-based feature importances.

The higher, the more important the feature. The importance of a feature is computed as the (normalized) total reduction of the criterion brought by that feature. It is also known as the Gini importance.

Warning: impurity-based feature importances can be misleading for high cardinality features (many unique values). See sklearn.inspection.permutation_importance as an alternative.

Returns

feature_importances_ndarray of shape (n_features,)

The values of this array sum to 1, unless all trees are single node trees consisting of only the root node, in which case it will be an array of zeros.

).keys()

get_tags()

classmethod get_test_params(parameter_set='default')

Return testing parameter settings for the estimator.

Parameters

parameter_setstr, default=”default”

Name of the set of test parameters to return, for use in tests. If no special parameters are defined for a value, will return “default” set.

Returns

paramsdict or list of dict, default = {}

Parameters to create testing instances of the class Each dict are parameters to construct an “interesting” test instance, i.e., MyClass(**params) or MyClass(**params[i]) creates a valid test instance. create_test_instance uses the first (or only) dictionary in params

is_composite()

Check if the object is composite.

A composite object is an object which contains objects, as parameters. Called on an instance, since this may differ by instance.

Returns

composite: bool, whether self contains a parameter which is BaseObject

property is_fitted

Whether fit has been called.

property n_features_

DEPRECATED: Attribute n_features_ was deprecated in version 1.0 and will be removed in 1.2. Use n_features_in_ instead.

Number of features when fitting the estimator.

reset()

Reset the object to a clean post-init state.

Equivalent to sklearn.clone but overwrites self. After self.reset() call, self is equal in value to type(self)(**self.get_params(deep=False))

Detail behaviour: removes any object attributes, except:

hyper-parameters = arguments of __init__ object attributes containing double-underscores, i.e., the string “__”

runs __init__ with current values of hyper-parameters (result of get_params)

Not affected by the reset are: object attributes containing double-underscores class and object methods, class attributes

score(X, y, sample_weight=None)

Return the coefficient of determination of the prediction.

The coefficient of determination \(R^2\) is defined as \((1 - \frac{u}{v})\), where \(u\) is the residual sum of squares ((y_true - y_pred)** 2).sum() and \(v\) is the total sum of squares ((y_true - y_true.mean()) ** 2).sum(). The best possible score is 1.0 and it can be negative (because the model can be arbitrarily worse). A constant model that always predicts the expected value of y, disregarding the input features, would get a \(R^2\) score of 0.0.

Parameters

Xarray-like of shape (n_samples, n_features)

Test samples. For some estimators this may be a precomputed kernel matrix or a list of generic objects instead with shape (n_samples, n_samples_fitted), where n_samples_fitted is the number of samples used in the fitting for the estimator.

yarray-like of shape (n_samples,) or (n_samples, n_outputs)

True values for X.

sample_weightarray-like of shape (n_samples,), default=None

Sample weights.

Returns

scorefloat

\(R^2\) of self.predict(X) wrt. y.

Notes

The \(R^2\) score used when calling score on a regressor uses multioutput='uniform_average' from version 0.23 to keep consistent with default value of r2_score. This influences the score method of all the multioutput regressors (except for MultiOutputRegressor).

set_params(**params)

Set the parameters of this object.

The method works on simple estimators as well as on nested objects. The latter have parameters of the form <component>__<parameter> so that it’s possible to update each component of a nested object.

Parameters

**paramsdict

BaseObject parameters

Returns

selfreference to self (after parameters have been set)

set_tags(**tag_dict)

Set dynamic tags to given values.

Parameters

tag_dictdict

Dictionary of tag name : tag value pairs.

Returns

Self

Reference to self.

Notes

Changes object state by settting tag values in tag_dict as dynamic tags in self.
