Parameters(33)

freqUnion[str, int] (default=”auto”)

frequency of the data, see available frequencies [4] from pandas use int freq when using RangeIndex in y

default (“auto”) interprets freq from ForecastingHorizon in fit

scaler to apply per-series to all features before fitting, which is inverted after predicting

can be one of the following:

• ‘standard’

• ‘robust’

• ‘robust-iqr’

print processing steps during predict

input_sizeint (default=-1)

maximum sequence length for truncated train backpropagation

default (-1) uses all history

inference_input_sizeint (default=-1)

maximum sequence length for truncated inference

default (-1) uses all history

encoder_n_layersint (default=2)

number of layers for the GRU

encoder_hidden_sizeint (default=200)

max_stepsint (default=1000)

maximum number of training steps

learning_ratefloat (default=1e-3)

learning rate between (0, 1)

num_lr_decaysint (default=-1)

number of learning rate decays, evenly distributed across max_steps

early_stop_patience_stepsint (default=-1)

number of validation iterations before early stopping

val_check_stepsint (default=100)

scaler_typestr (default=”robust”)

type of scaler for temporal inputs normalization

random_seedint (default=1)

random_seed for pytorch initializer and numpy generators

num_workers_loaderint (default=0)

workers to be used by TimeSeriesDataLoader

drop_last_loaderbool (default=False)

whether TimeSeriesDataLoader drops last non-full batch

optimizerpytorch optimizer (default=None) [Rb094ab593f59-7]

optimizer to use for training, if passed with None defaults to Adam

optimizer_kwargsdict (default=None) [Rb094ab593f59-8]

dict of parameters to pass to the user defined optimizer

lr_schedulerpytorch learning rate scheduler (default=None) [Rb094ab593f59-9]

trainer_kwargsdict (default=None)

keyword trainer arguments inherited from PyTorch Lighning’s trainer [Rb094ab593f59-6]

broadcastingbool (default=False)

if True, a model will be fit per time series. Panels, e.g., multiindex data input, will be broadcasted to single series, and for each single series, one copy of this forecaster will be applied.
