Forecat

Forecat is a Python package that provides a Keras-based forecast model builder.

It provides the arquitectures for CNN, LSTM, and Encoder Decoder, and even from imagery UNET. Any suggestions and tips are welcome. Use this to fastly have your forecast models ready to use!

Usage

To use Forecat, follow these steps:

    pip install forecat

Since Forecat is based on keras-core you can choose which backend to use, otherwise it will default to tensorflow. To change backend change the KERAS-BACKEND enviromental variable. Follow this.

To get an arquiteture you only need to have a simple configuration and call the module:

import forecat

# The input arguments
input_args = {
    "X_timeseries": 168,
    "Y_timeseries": 24,
    "n_features_train": 18,
    "n_features_predict": 1,
}
# This is make a model with shapes:
    # input_shape = (N, 168, 18)
    # output_shape = (N, 24, 1)

forearch = forecat.CNNArch(**input_args)

# Now for Vanilla and Stacked CNN:
architecture_args = {}
VanillaCNN = forearch.architecture(**architecture_args)

architecture_args = {"block_repetition": 2}
StackedCNN = forearch.architecture(**architecture_args)

# Keras Models ready to use:
VanillaCNN.summary()
StackedCNN.summary()
