Client

class ForecastService.Client

A low-level client representing Amazon Forecast Service:

import boto3

client = boto3.client('forecast')

These are the available methods:

can_paginate(operation_name)

Check if an operation can be paginated.

Parameters
operation_name (string) -- The operation name. This is the same name as the method name on the client. For example, if the method name is create_foo, and you'd normally invoke the operation as client.create_foo(**kwargs), if the create_foo operation can be paginated, you can use the call client.get_paginator("create_foo").
Returns
True if the operation can be paginated, False otherwise.
create_dataset(**kwargs)

Creates an Amazon Forecast dataset. The information about the dataset that you provide helps Forecast understand how to consume the data for model training. This includes the following:

  • *DataFrequency * - How frequently your historical time-series data is collected.
  • *Domain * and * DatasetType * - Each dataset has an associated dataset domain and a type within the domain. Amazon Forecast provides a list of predefined domains and types within each domain. For each unique dataset domain and type within the domain, Amazon Forecast requires your data to include a minimum set of predefined fields.
  • *Schema * - A schema specifies the fields in the dataset, including the field name and data type.

After creating a dataset, you import your training data into it and add the dataset to a dataset group. You use the dataset group to create a predictor. For more information, see howitworks-datasets-groups .

To get a list of all your datasets, use the ListDatasets operation.

For example Forecast datasets, see the Amazon Forecast Sample GitHub repository .

Note

The Status of a dataset must be ACTIVE before you can import training data. Use the DescribeDataset operation to get the status.

create_forecast(**kwargs)

Creates a forecast for each item in the TARGET_TIME_SERIES dataset that was used to train the predictor. This is known as inference. To retrieve the forecast for a single item at low latency, use the operation. To export the complete forecast into your Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3) bucket, use the CreateForecastExportJob operation.

The range of the forecast is determined by the ForecastHorizon value, which you specify in the CreatePredictor request, multiplied by the DataFrequency value, which you specify in the CreateDataset request. When you query a forecast, you can request a specific date range within the forecast.

To get a list of all your forecasts, use the ListForecasts operation.

Note

The forecasts generated by Amazon Forecast are in the same time zone as the dataset that was used to create the predictor.

For more information, see howitworks-forecast .

Note

The Status of the forecast must be ACTIVE before you can query or export the forecast. Use the DescribeForecast operation to get the status.

create_predictor(**kwargs)

Creates an Amazon Forecast predictor.

In the request, you provide a dataset group and either specify an algorithm or let Amazon Forecast choose the algorithm for you using AutoML. If you specify an algorithm, you also can override algorithm-specific hyperparameters.

Amazon Forecast uses the chosen algorithm to train a model using the latest version of the datasets in the specified dataset group. The result is called a predictor. You then generate a forecast using the CreateForecast operation.

After training a model, the CreatePredictor operation also evaluates it. To see the evaluation metrics, use the GetAccuracyMetrics operation. Always review the evaluation metrics before deciding to use the predictor to generate a forecast.

Optionally, you can specify a featurization configuration to fill and aggregate the data fields in the TARGET_TIME_SERIES dataset to improve model training. For more information, see FeaturizationConfig .

For RELATED_TIME_SERIES datasets, CreatePredictor verifies that the DataFrequency specified when the dataset was created matches the ForecastFrequency . TARGET_TIME_SERIES datasets don't have this restriction. Amazon Forecast also verifies the delimiter and timestamp format. For more information, see howitworks-datasets-groups .

AutoML

If you want Amazon Forecast to evaluate each algorithm and choose the one that minimizes the objective function , set PerformAutoML to true . The objective function is defined as the mean of the weighted p10, p50, and p90 quantile losses. For more information, see EvaluationResult .

When AutoML is enabled, the following properties are disallowed:

  • AlgorithmArn
  • HPOConfig
  • PerformHPO
  • TrainingParameters

To get a list of all of your predictors, use the ListPredictors operation.

Note

Before you can use the predictor to create a forecast, the Status of the predictor must be ACTIVE , signifying that training has completed. To get the status, use the DescribePredictor operation.

Parameters
  • PredictorName (string) --

    [REQUIRED]

    A name for the predictor.

  • AlgorithmArn (string) --

    The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the algorithm to use for model training. Required if PerformAutoML is not set to true .

    Supported algorithms:
    • arn:aws:forecast:::algorithm/ARIMA
    • arn:aws:forecast:::algorithm/Deep_AR_Plus Supports hyperparameter optimization (HPO)
    • arn:aws:forecast:::algorithm/ETS
    • arn:aws:forecast:::algorithm/NPTS
    • arn:aws:forecast:::algorithm/Prophet
  • ForecastHorizon (integer) --

    [REQUIRED]

    Specifies the number of time-steps that the model is trained to predict. The forecast horizon is also called the prediction length.

    For example, if you configure a dataset for daily data collection (using the DataFrequency parameter of the CreateDataset operation) and set the forecast horizon to 10, the model returns predictions for 10 days.

    The maximum forecast horizon is the lesser of 500 time-steps or 1/3 of the TARGET_TIME_SERIES dataset length.

  • PerformAutoML (boolean) --

    Whether to perform AutoML. When Amazon Forecast performs AutoML, it evaluates the algorithms it provides and chooses the best algorithm and configuration for your training dataset.

    The default value is false . In this case, you are required to specify an algorithm.

    Set PerformAutoML to true to have Amazon Forecast perform AutoML. This is a good option if you aren't sure which algorithm is suitable for your training data. In this case, PerformHPO must be false.

  • PerformHPO (boolean) --

    Whether to perform hyperparameter optimization (HPO). HPO finds optimal hyperparameter values for your training data. The process of performing HPO is known as running a hyperparameter tuning job.

    The default value is false . In this case, Amazon Forecast uses default hyperparameter values from the chosen algorithm.

    To override the default values, set PerformHPO to true and, optionally, supply the HyperParameterTuningJobConfig object. The tuning job specifies a metric to optimize, which hyperparameters participate in tuning, and the valid range for each tunable hyperparameter. In this case, you are required to specify an algorithm and PerformAutoML must be false.

    The following algorithm supports HPO:

    • DeepAR+
  • TrainingParameters (dict) --

    The hyperparameters to override for model training. The hyperparameters that you can override are listed in the individual algorithms. For the list of supported algorithms, see aws-forecast-choosing-recipes .

    • (string) --
      • (string) --
  • EvaluationParameters (dict) --

    Used to override the default evaluation parameters of the specified algorithm. Amazon Forecast evaluates a predictor by splitting a dataset into training data and testing data. The evaluation parameters define how to perform the split and the number of iterations.

    • NumberOfBacktestWindows (integer) --

      The number of times to split the input data. The default is 1. Valid values are 1 through 5.

    • BackTestWindowOffset (integer) --

      The point from the end of the dataset where you want to split the data for model training and testing (evaluation). Specify the value as the number of data points. The default is the value of the forecast horizon. BackTestWindowOffset can be used to mimic a past virtual forecast start date. This value must be greater than or equal to the forecast horizon and less than half of the TARGET_TIME_SERIES dataset length.

      ForecastHorizon <= BackTestWindowOffset < 1/2 * TARGET_TIME_SERIES dataset length
  • HPOConfig (dict) --

    Provides hyperparameter override values for the algorithm. If you don't provide this parameter, Amazon Forecast uses default values. The individual algorithms specify which hyperparameters support hyperparameter optimization (HPO). For more information, see aws-forecast-choosing-recipes .

    If you included the HPOConfig object, you must set PerformHPO to true.

    • ParameterRanges (dict) --

      Specifies the ranges of valid values for the hyperparameters.

      • CategoricalParameterRanges (list) --

        Specifies the tunable range for each categorical hyperparameter.

            The name of the hyperparameter to tune.

          • MaxValue (float) -- [REQUIRED]

            The maximum tunable value of the hyperparameter.

          • MinValue (float) -- [REQUIRED]

generate_presigned_url(ClientMethod, Params=None, ExpiresIn=3600, HttpMethod=None)

Generate a presigned url given a client, its method, and arguments

Parameters
  • ClientMethod (string) -- The client method to presign for
  • Params (dict) -- The parameters normally passed to ClientMethod.
  • ExpiresIn (int) -- The number of seconds the presigned url is valid for. By default it expires in an hour (3600 seconds)

get_accuracy_metrics(**kwargs)

Provides metrics on the accuracy of the models that were trained by the CreatePredictor operation. Use metrics to see how well the model performed and to decide whether to use the predictor to generate a forecast. For more information, see metrics .

This operation generates metrics for each backtest window that was evaluated. The number of backtest windows (NumberOfBacktestWindows ) is specified using the EvaluationParameters object, which is optionally included in the CreatePredictor request. If NumberOfBacktestWindows isn't specified, the number defaults to one.

The parameters of the filling method determine which items contribute to the metrics. If you want all items to contribute, specify zero . If you want only those items that have complete data in the range being evaluated to contribute, specify nan . For more information, see FeaturizationMethod .

Note

Before you can get accuracy metrics, the Status of the predictor must be ACTIVE , signifying that training has completed. To get the status, use the DescribePredictor operation.

    • Condition - The condition to apply. Valid values are IS and IS_NOT . To include the forecasts that match the statement, specify IS . To exclude matching forecasts, specify IS_NOT .
    • Key - The name of the parameter to filter on. Valid values are DatasetGroupArn , PredictorArn , and Status .
    • Value - The value to match.

    For example, to list all forecasts whose status is not ACTIVE, you would specify:

    "Filters": [ { "Condition": "IS_NOT", "Key": "Status", "Value": "ACTIVE" } ]
    • (dict) --

      Describes a filter for choosing a subset of objects. Each filter consists of a condition and a match statement. The condition is either IS or IS_NOT , which specifies whether to include or exclude the objects that match the statement, respectively. The match statement consists of a key and a value.

      • Key (string) -- [REQUIRED]

        The name of the parameter to filter on.

      • Value (string) -- [REQUIRED]

        The value to match.

      • Condition (string) -- [REQUIRED]

        The condition to apply. To include the objects that match the statement, specify IS . To exclude matching objects, specify IS_NOT .

  • PaginationConfig (dict) --

    A dictionary that provides parameters to control pagination.

    • MaxItems (integer) --

      The total number of items to return. If the total number of items available is more than the value specified in max-items then a NextToken will be provided in the output that you can use to resume pagination.

    • PageSize (integer) --

      The size of each page.

    • StartingToken (string) --

      A token to specify where to start paginating. This is the NextToken from a previous response.
