MultiplexTransformer#

class MultiplexTransformer(transformers: list, selected_transformer=None)[source]#

Facilitate an AutoML based selection of the best transformer.

When used in combination with either TransformedTargetForecaster or ForecastingPipeline in combination with ForecastingGridSearchCV MultiplexTransformer provides a framework for transformer selection. Through selection of the appropriate pipeline (ie TransformedTargetForecaster vs ForecastingPipeline) the transformers in MultiplexTransformer will either be applied to exogenous data, or to the target data.

MultiplexTransformer delegates all transforming tasks (ie, calls to fit, transform, inverse_transform, and update) to a copy of the transformer in transformers whose name matches selected_transformer. All other transformers in transformers will be ignored.

Parameters:
transformerslist of aeon transformers, or

list of tuples (str, estimator) of named aeon transformers MultiplexTransformer can switch (“multiplex”) between these transformers. Note - all the transformers passed in “transformers” should be thought of as blueprints. Calling transformation functions on MultiplexTransformer will not change their state at all. - Rather a copy of each is created and this is what is updated.

selected_transformerstr or None, optional, Default=None.
If str, must be one of the transformer names.

If passed in transformers were unnamed then selected_transformer must coincide with auto-generated name strings. To inspect auto-generated name strings, call get_params.

If None, selected_transformer defaults to the name of the first transformer

in transformers.

selected_transformer represents the name of the transformer MultiplexTransformer

should behave as (ie delegate all relevant transformation functionality to)

Attributes:
transformer_aeon transformer

clone of the transformer named by selected_transformer to which all the transformation functionality is delegated to.

_transformerslist of (name, est) tuples, where est are direct references to

Forecasters turned into name/est tuples.

have an inverse_transform.

classmethod load_from_path(serial)[source]#

Load object from file location.

Result of ZipFile(path).open(“object).

Returns:
deserialized self resulting in output at path, of cls.save(path)
classmethod load_from_serial(serial)[source]#

Returns:
deserialized self resulting in output serial, of cls.save(None).
reset()[source]#

Reset the object to a clean post-init state.

Equivalent to sklearn.clone but overwrites self. After self.reset() call, self is equal in value to type(self)(**self.get_params(deep=False))

Detail behaviour: removes any object attributes, except:

hyper-parameters = arguments of __init__ object attributes containing double-underscores, i.e., the string “__”

runs __init__ with current values of hyper-parameters (result of get_params)

Not affected by the reset are: object attributes containing double-underscores class and object methods, class attributes

save(path=None)[source]#

Save serialized self to bytes-like object or to (.zip) file.

Behaviour: if path is None, returns an in-memory serialized self if path is a file location, stores self at that location as a zip file

saved files are zip files with following contents: _metadata - contains class of self, i.e., type(self) _obj - serialized self. This class uses the default serialization (pickle).

Parameters:
pathNone or file location (str or Path).

if None, self is saved to an in-memory object if file location, self is saved to that file location. If:

path=”estimator” then a zip file estimator.zip will be made at cwd. path=”/home/stored/estimator” then a zip file estimator.zip will be stored in /home/stored/.

Returns:
if path is None - in-memory serialized self
if path is file location - ZipFile with reference to the file.
set_params(**kwargs)[source]#

Set the parameters of estimator.

Valid parameter keys can be listed with get_params().

Returns:
selfreturns an instance of self.
