gtime.preprocessing.TimeSeriesPreparation

class gtime.preprocessing.TimeSeriesPreparation(start: Optional[datetime.datetime] = None, end: Optional[datetime.datetime] = None, freq: Optional[pandas._libs.tslibs.timedeltas.Timedelta] = None, resample_if_not_equispaced: bool = False, output_name: str = 'time_series')

Transforms an array-like sequence in a period-index DataFrame with a single column.

Here is what happens: - if a list or np.array is passed, the PeriodIndex is built using the parameters

start, end and freq

• if a pd.Series is passed, it checks if the index is a time index

  (DatetimeIndex, TimedeltaIndex, PeriodIndex) or not. If not the index is built as if it were a list or `np.array. If yes the index is converted to PeriodIndex.

Parameters

startpd.datetime, optional, default: None

The date to use as start date.

endpd.datetime, optional, default: None

The date to use as end date.

freqpd.Timedelta, optional, default: None

The frequency of the output time series. Not mandatory for all time series conversion.

resample_if_not_equispacedbool, optional, default: False

Not supported yet, leave it as True

output_namestr, optional, default: 'time_series'

The name of the output column

Raises

ValueError

Of the three parameters: start, end, and periods, exactly two must be specified.

Methods

transform(self, time_series, , …)

Transforms an array-like sequence in a period-index DataFrame with a single column.

__init__(self, start:Union[datetime.datetime, NoneType]=None, end:Union[datetime.datetime, NoneType]=None, freq:Union[pandas._libs.tslibs.timedeltas.Timedelta, NoneType]=None, resample_if_not_equispaced:bool=False, output_name:str='time_series')

Initialize self. See help(type(self)) for accurate signature.

transform(self, time_series:Union[List, <built-in function array>, pandas.core.series.Series, pandas.core.frame.DataFrame]) → pandas.core.frame.DataFrame

Transforms an array-like sequence in a period-index DataFrame with a single column.

Parameters

time_seriesUnion[List, np.array, pd.Series, pd.DataFrame], required

The input time series.

Returns

period_index_dataframepd.DataFrame

The output dataframe with a period index.
