A Python Toolbox for Benchmarking Machine Learning on Partially-Observed Time Series

Welcome to BenchPOTS

a Python toolbox for benchmarking ML on POTS (Partially-Observed Time Series)

To evaluate the performance of algorithms on POTS datasets, a benchmarking toolkit is necessary, hence the ecosystem library BenchPOTS is developed. BenchPOTS provides the standard and unified preprocessing pipelines of a variety of POTS datasets. It supports a variety of evaluation tasks to help users understand the performance of different algorithms.

❖ Usage Examples

[!IMPORTANT] BenchPOTS is available on both and ❗️

Install via pip:

pip install benchpots

or install from source code:

pip install https://github.com/WenjieDu/BenchPOTS/archive/main.zip

or install via conda:

conda install benchpots -c conda-forge

import benchpots

# Load PhysioNet2012 all three subsets and apply MCAR with 0.1 rate 
benchpots.datasets.preprocess_physionet2012(subset="all", rate=0.1)

❖ Citing BenchPOTS/PyPOTS

The paper introducing PyPOTS is available on arXiv, A short version of it is accepted by the 9th SIGKDD international workshop on Mining and Learning from Time Series (MiLeTS'23)). Additionally, PyPOTS has been included as a PyTorch Ecosystem project. We are pursuing to publish it in prestigious academic venues, e.g. JMLR (track for Machine Learning Open Source Software).
