​
function numpy_balance

numpy_balance(*arrs)
Fast NumPy implementation of ‘balance’ operation. Useful to create a balanced panel dataset, ie a dataset with all the interactions of ‘unique_id’ and ‘ds’. Args:
  • *arrs: NumPy arrays.
Returns:
  • np.ndarray: NumPy array with balanced combinations.

​
function numpy_ffill

numpy_ffill(arr)
Fast NumPy implementation of ffill that fills missing values. Fills missing values in an array by propagating the last non-missing value forward. For example, if the array has the following values: 0 1 2 3 1 2 NaN 4 The ffill method would fill the missing values as follows: 0 1 2 3 1 2 2 4 Args:
  • arr (np.ndarray): NumPy array.
Returns:
  • np.ndarray: NumPy array with forward-filled values.

​
function numpy_bfill

numpy_bfill(arr)
Fast NumPy implementation of bfill that fills missing values. Fills missing values in an array by propagating the last non-missing value backwards. For example, if the array has the following values: 0 1 2 3 1 2 NaN 4 The bfill method would fill the missing values as follows: 0 1 2 3 1 2 4 4 Args:
  • arr (np.ndarray): NumPy array.
Returns:
  • np.ndarray: NumPy array with backward-filled values.

​
function one_hot_encoding

one_hot_encoding(df, index_col)
Encodes dataFrame’s categorical variables skipping index column. Args:
  • df (pd.DataFrame): DataFrame with categorical columns.
  • index_col (str): The index column to avoid encoding.
Returns:
  • pd.DataFrame: DataFrame with one hot encoded categorical columns.

​
function nested_one_hot_encoding

nested_one_hot_encoding(df, index_col)
Encodes dataFrame’s hierarchically-nested categorical variables. Skips the index column. Nested categorical variables (example geographic levels country>state), require the dummy features to preserve encoding order, to reflect the hierarchy of the categorical variables. Args:
  • df (pd.DataFrame): DataFrame with hierarchically-nested categorical columns.
  • index_col (str): The index column to avoid encoding.
Returns:
  • pd.DataFrame: DataFrame with one hot encoded hierarchically-nested categorical columns.

​
function get_levels_from_S_df

get_levels_from_S_df(S_df)
Get hierarchical index levels implied by aggregation constraints dataframe. Create levels from summation matrix (base, bottom). Goes through the rows until all the bottom level series are ‘covered’ by the aggregation constraints to discover blocks/hierarchy levels. Args:
  • S_df (pd.DataFrame): Summing matrix of size (base, bottom), see aggregate method.
Returns:
  • list: Hierarchical aggregation indexes, where each entry is a level.

class FavoritaComplete

​
class FavoritaRawData

Favorita Raw Data. Raw subset datasets from the Favorita 2018 Kaggle competition. This class contains utilities to download, load and filter portions of the dataset. If you prefer, you can also download original dataset available from Kaggle directly: 
pip install kaggle --upgrade
kaggle competitions download -c favorita-grocery-sales-forecasting

​
method download

download(directory: str) → None
Downloads Favorita Competition Dataset. The dataset weights 980MB, its download is not currently robust to brief interruptions of the process. It is recommended execute with good connection. Args:
  • directory (str): Directory where data will be downloaded.
Examples: 
from datasetsforecast.favorita import FavoritaRawData
verbose = True
group = 'Favorita200'  # 'Favorita500', 'FavoritaComplete'
directory = './data/favorita'  # directory = f's3://favorita'
filter_items, filter_stores, filter_dates, raw_group_data = FavoritaRawData._load_raw_group_data(directory=directory, group=group, verbose=verbose)
n_items = len(filter_items)
n_stores = len(filter_stores)
n_dates = len(filter_dates)
print('\n')
print('n_stores: \t', n_stores)
print('n_items: \t', n_items)
print('n_dates: \t', n_dates)
print('n_items * n_dates: \t\t', n_items * n_dates)
print('n_items * n_stores: \t\t', n_items * n_stores)
print('n_items * n_dates * n_stores: \t', n_items * n_dates * n_stores)

class FavoritaData

Favorita Data. The processed Favorita dataset of grocery contains item sales daily history with additional information on promotions, items, stores, and holidays, containing 371,312 series from January 2013 to August 2017, with a geographic hierarchy of states, cities, and stores. This wrangling matches that of the DPMN paper. References: Kin G. Olivares, O.

​
method load

load(directory: str, group: str, cache: bool = True, verbose: bool = False)
Load Favorita forecasting benchmark dataset. In contrast with other hierarchical datasets, this dataset contains a geographic hierarchy for each individual grocery item series, identified with ‘item_id’ column. The geographic hierarchy is captured by the ‘hier_id’ column. For this reason minor wrangling is needed to adapt it for use with HierarchicalForecast, and StatsForecast libraries. Args:
  • directory (str): Directory where data will be downloaded and saved.
  • group (str): Dataset group name in ‘Favorita200’, ‘Favorita500’, ‘FavoritaComplete’.
  • cache (bool, optional): If True saves and loads. Defaults to True.
  • verbose (bool, optional): Whether or not print partial outputs. Defaults to False.
Returns:
  • tuple: A tuple containing:
    • Y_df (pd.DataFrame): Target base time series with columns [‘item_id’, ‘hier_id’, ‘ds’, ‘y’].
    • S_df (pd.DataFrame): Hierarchical constraints dataframe of size (base, bottom).
    • tags (dict): Dictionary with hierarchical level information.
Example: 
# Qualitative evaluation of hierarchical data
from datasetsforecast.favorita import FavoritaData
from hierarchicalforecast.utils import HierarchicalPlot

group = 'Favorita200' # 'Favorita500', 'FavoritaComplete'
directory = './data/favorita'
Y_df, S_df, tags = FavoritaData.load(directory=directory, group=group)

Y_item_df = Y_df[Y_df.item_id==1916577] # 112830, 1501570, 1916577
Y_item_df = Y_item_df.rename(columns={'hier_id': 'unique_id'})
Y_item_df = Y_item_df.set_index('unique_id')
del Y_item_df['item_id']

hplots = HierarchicalPlot(S=S_df, tags=tags)
hplots.plot_hierarchically_linked_series(
    Y_df=Y_item_df, bottom_series='store_[40]',
)

  • group (str): Dataset group name in ‘Favorita200’, ‘Favorita500’, ‘FavoritaComplete’.
