Model Selection

sklego.model_selection.TimeGapSplit

Provides train/test indices to split time series data samples.

This cross-validation object is a variation of TimeSeriesSplit with the following differences:

  • The splits are made based on datetime duration, instead of number of rows.
  • The user specifies the valid_duration and either train_duration or n_splits.
  • The user can specify a gap_duration that is added after the training split and before the validation split.

The 3 duration parameters can be used to really replicate how the model is going to be used in production in batch learning.

Each validation fold doesn't overlap. The entire window moves by 1 valid_duration until there is not enough data.

If this would lead to more splits then specified with n_splits, the window moves by valid_duration times the fraction of possible splits and requested splits:

  • n_possible_splits = (total_length - train_duration-gap_duration) // valid_duration
  • time_shift = valid_duration * n_possible_splits / n_slits

so the CV spans the whole dataset.

If train_duration is not passed but n_splits is, the training duration is increased to:

train_duration = total_length - (gap_duration + valid_duration * n_splits)

such that the shifting the entire window by one validation duration spans the whole training set.

Parameters:

Name Type Description Default
date_serie Series

Series with the date, that should have all the indices of X used in the split() method.

required
valid_duration timedelta

Retraining period.

required
train_duration timedelta | None

Historical training data.

None
gap_duration timedelta

Forward looking window of the target. The period of the forward looking window necessary to create your target variable.

This period is dropped at the end of your training folds due to lack of recent data.

In production you would have not been able to create the target for that period, and you would have drop it from the training data.

timedelta(0)
n_splits int | None

Number of splits.

None
window Literal[rolling, expanding]

Type of moving window to use.

  • "rolling" window has fixed size and is shifted entirely.
  • "expanding" left side of window is fixed, right border increases each fold.

class TimeGapSplit:
    r"""Provides train/test indices to split time series data samples.

    This cross-validation object is a variation of TimeSeriesSplit with the following  differences:

    - The splits are made based on datetime duration, instead of number of rows.
    - The user specifies the `valid_duration` and either `train_duration` or `n_splits`.
    - The user can specify a `gap_duration` that is added after the training split and before the validation split.

    The 3 duration parameters can be used to really replicate how the model is going to be used in production in batch
    learning.

    Each validation fold doesn't overlap. The entire `window` moves by 1 `valid_duration` until there is not enough
    data.

    If this would lead to more splits then specified with `n_splits`, the `window` moves by `valid_duration` times the
    fraction of possible splits and requested splits:

    - `n_possible_splits = (total_length - train_duration-gap_duration) // valid_duration`
    - `time_shift = valid_duration * n_possible_splits / n_slits`

    so the CV spans the whole dataset.

    If `train_duration` is not passed but `n_splits` is, the training duration is increased to:

    `train_duration = total_length - (gap_duration + valid_duration * n_splits)`

    such that the shifting the entire window by one validation duration spans the whole training set.

    Parameters
    ----------
    date_serie : pd.Series
        Series with the date, that should have all the indices of X used in the split() method.
    valid_duration : datetime.timedelta
        Retraining period.
    train_duration : datetime.timedelta | None, default=None
        Historical training data.
    gap_duration : datetime.timedelta, default=timedelta(0)
        Forward looking window of the target. The period of the forward looking window necessary to create your target
        variable.

        This period is dropped at the end of your training folds due to lack of recent data.

        In production you would have not been able to create the target for that period, and you would have drop it from
        the training data.
    n_splits : int | None, default=None
        Number of splits.
    window : Literal["rolling", "expanding"], default="rolling"
        Type of moving window to use.

        - `"rolling"` window has fixed size and is shifted entirely.
        - `"expanding"` left side of window is fixed, right border increases each fold.
