ExponentTransformer

class ExponentTransformer(power=0.5, offset='auto')

Apply element-wise exponentiation transformation to a time series.

Transformation performs the following operations element-wise:

• adds the constant offset (shift)

• raises to the power provided (exponentiation)

Offset=”auto” computes offset as the smallest offset that ensure all elements are non-negative before exponentiation.

Parameters

powerint or float, default=0.5

The power to raise the input timeseries to.

offset“auto”, int or float, default=”auto”

Offset to be added to the input timeseries prior to raising the timeseries to the given power. If “auto” the series is checked to determine if it contains negative values. If negative values are found then the offset will be equal to the absolute value of the most negative value. If not negative values are present the offset is set to zero. If an integer or float value is supplied it will be used as the offset.

Attributes

powerint or float

User supplied power.

offsetint or float, or iterable.

User supplied offset value. Scalar or 1D iterable with as many values as X columns in transform.

LogTransformer

Transformer input data using natural log. Can help normalize data and compress variance of the series.

sktime.transformations.series.exponent.SqrtTransformer

Notes

For an input series Z the exponent transformation is defined as \((Z + offset)^{power}\).

Parameters

parameter_setstr, default=”default”

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

check_is_fitted()

Check if the estimator has been fitted.

Raises

Parameters

(the transformer is applied to each input Series instance)

Example: all series in the panel are detrended individually

then the return is pd.DataFrame with as many rows as instances in X Example: i-th row of the return has mean and variance of the i-th series

have an inverse_transform.

State required:

Requires state to be “fitted”.

Accesses in self: _is_fitted : must be True _X : optionally accessed, only available if remember_data tag is True fitted model attributes (ending in “_”) : accessed by _inverse_transform

Parameters

XSeries or Panel, any supported mtype

Data to be inverse transformed, of python type as follows:

Series: pd.Series, pd.DataFrame, or np.ndarray (1D or 2D) Panel: pd.DataFrame with 2-level MultiIndex, list of pd.DataFrame,

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

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

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

Returns

Self

Reference to self.

Notes

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