scikit-hts 0.5.12

Overview

Building on the excellent work by Hyndman [1], we developed this package in order to provide a python implementation of general hierarchical time series modeling.

Features

• Supported and tested on python 3.6, python 3.7 and python 3.8

• Implementation of Bottom-Up, Top-Down, Middle-Out, Forecast Proportions, Average Historic Proportions, Proportions of Historic Averages and OLS revision methods

• Support for representations of hierarchical and grouped time series

• Support for a variety of underlying forecasting models, inlcuding: SARIMAX, ARIMA, Prophet, Holt-Winters

• Scikit-learn-like API

• Geo events handling functionality for geospatial data, including visualisation capabilities

• Static typing for a nice developer experience

• Distributed training & Dask integration: perform training and prediction in parallel or in a cluster with Dask

Examples

You can find code usages here: https://github.com/carlomazzaferro/scikit-hts-examples

Roadmap

• More flexible underlying modeling support

  • [P] AR, ARIMAX, VARMAX, etc

  • [P] Bring-Your-Own-Model

  • [P] Different parameters for each of the models

• Decoupling reconciliation methods from forecast fitting

  • [W] Enable to use the reconciliation methods with pre-fitted models
