ClustererPipeline

PredictOut of sample

Pipeline of transformers and a clusterer.

The ClustererPipeline compositor chains transformers and a single clusterer. The pipeline is constructed with a list of sktime transformers, plus a clusterer,

i.e., estimators following the BaseTransformer resp BaseClusterer interface.

The transformer list can be unnamed - a simple list of transformers -

or string named - a list of pairs of string, estimator.

For a list of transformers trafo1, trafo2, …, trafoN and a clusterer clst,

the pipeline behaves as follows:

fit(X, y) - changes styte by running trafo1.fit_transform on X,

them trafo2.fit_transform on the output of trafo1.fit_transform, etc sequentially, with trafo[i] receiving the output of trafo[i-1], and then running clst.fit with X being the output of trafo[N], and y identical with the input to self.fit

predict(X) - result is of executing trafo1.transform, trafo2.transform, etc

with trafo[i].transform input = output of trafo[i-1].transform, then running clst.predict on the output of trafoN.transform, and returning the output of clst.predict

predict_proba(X) - result is of executing trafo1.transform, trafo2.transform,

etc, with trafo[i].transform input = output of trafo[i-1].transform, then running clst.predict_proba on the output of trafoN.transform, and returning the output of clst.predict_proba

get_params, set_params uses sklearn compatible nesting interface

if list is unnamed, names are generated as names of classes if names are non-unique, f”_{str(i)}” is appended to each name string

where i is the total count of occurrence of a non-unique string inside the list of names leading up to it (inclusive)

ClustererPipeline can also be created by using the magic multiplication
on any clusterer, i.e., if my_clst inherits from BaseClusterer,

and my_trafo1, my_trafo2 inherit from BaseTransformer, then, for instance, my_trafo1 * my_trafo2 * my_clst will result in the same object as obtained from the constructor ClustererPipeline(clusterer=my_clst, transformers=[my_trafo1, my_trafo2])

magic multiplication can also be used with (str, transformer) pairs,

as long as one element in the chain is a transformer

Quickstart

python
from sktime.clustering.compose import ClustererPipeline

estimator = ClustererPipeline(clusterer, transformers)

Parameters(2)

clusterersktime clusterer, i.e., estimator inheriting from BaseClusterer
this is a “blueprint” clusterer, state does not change when fit is called
transformerslist of sktime transformers, or
list of tuples (str, transformer) of sktime transformers these are “blueprint” transformers, states do not change when fit is called

Examples

>>> from sktime.transformations.pca import PCATransformer
>>> from sktime.clustering.k_means import TimeSeriesKMeans
>>> from sktime.datasets import load_unit_test
>>> from sktime.clustering.compose import ClustererPipeline
>>> X_train, y_train = load_unit_test (split = "train")
>>> X_test, y_test = load_unit_test (split = "test")
>>> pipeline = ClustererPipeline (
... TimeSeriesKMeans (), [PCATransformer ()]
... )
>>> pipeline. fit (X_train, y_train) ClustererPipeline(
... )
>>> y_pred = pipeline. predict (X_test) Alternative construction via dunder method:
>>> pipeline = PCATransformer () * TimeSeriesKMeans ()
