A unified framework for machine learning with time series

Project description

Welcome to sktime

A unified interface for machine learning with time series

:rocket: Version 0.21.0 out now! Check out the release notes here.

sktime is a library for time series analysis in Python. It provides a unified interface for multiple time series learning tasks. Currently, this includes time series classification, regression, clustering, annotation, and forecasting. It comes with time series algorithms and scikit-learn compatible tools to build, tune and validate time series models.

:dizzy: Features

Our objective is to enhance the interoperability and usability of the time series analysis ecosystem in its entirety. sktime provides a unified interface for distinct but related time series learning tasks. It features dedicated time series algorithms and tools for composite model building such as pipelining, ensembling, tuning, and reduction, empowering users to apply an algorithm designed for one task to another.

sktime also provides interfaces to related libraries, for example scikit-learn, statsmodels, tsfresh, PyOD, and fbprophet, among others.

For deep learning, see our companion package: sktime-dl.

:hourglass_flowing_sand: Install sktime

For troubleshooting and detailed installation instructions, see the documentation.

  • Operating system: macOS X · Linux · Windows 8.1 or higher
  • Python version: Python 3.8, 3.9, 3.10, and 3.11 (only 64-bit)
  • Package managers: pip · conda (via conda-forge)

pip

Using pip, sktime releases are available as source packages and binary wheels. You can see all available wheels here.

pip install sktime

or, with maximum dependencies,

pip install sktime[all_extras]

conda

You can also install sktime from conda via the conda-forge channel. For the feedstock including the build recipe and configuration, check out this repository.

conda install -c conda-forge sktime

or, with maximum dependencies,

conda install -c conda-forge sktime-all-extras

:zap: Quickstart

Forecasting

from sktime.datasets import load_airline
from sktime.forecasting.base import ForecastingHorizon
from sktime.forecasting.model_selection import temporal_train_test_split
from sktime.forecasting.theta import ThetaForecaster
from sktime.performance_metrics.forecasting import mean_absolute_percentage_error

y = load_airline()
y_train, y_test = temporal_train_test_split(y)
fh = ForecastingHorizon(y_test.index, is_relative=False)
forecaster = ThetaForecaster(sp=12)  # monthly seasonal periodicity
forecaster.fit(y_train)
y_pred = forecaster.predict(fh)
mean_absolute_percentage_error(y_test, y_pred)
>>> 0.08661467738190656

Time Series Classification

from sktime.classification.interval_based import TimeSeriesForestClassifier
from sktime.datasets import load_arrow_head
from sklearn.model_selection import train_test_split
from sklearn.metrics import accuracy_score

X, y = load_arrow_head()
X_train, X_test, y_train, y_test = train_test_split(X, y)
classifier = TimeSeriesForestClassifier()
classifier.fit(X_train, y_train)
y_pred = classifier.predict(X_test)
accuracy_score(y_test, y_pred)
>>> 0.8679245283018868

:bulb: Project vision

  • By the community, for the community -- developed by a friendly and collaborative community.
  • The right tool for the right task -- helping users to diagnose their learning problem and suitable scientific model types.
  • Embedded in state-of-art ecosystems and provider of interoperable interfaces -- interoperable with scikit-learn, statsmodels, tsfresh, and other community favorites.
  • Rich model composition and reduction functionality -- build tuning and feature extraction pipelines, solve forecasting tasks with scikit-learn regressors.
  • Clean, descriptive specification syntax -- based on modern object-oriented design principles for data science.
  • Fair model assessment and benchmarking -- build your models, inspect your models, check your models, and avoid pitfalls.
  • Easily extensible -- easy extension templates to add your own algorithms compatible with sktime's API.
