cvpredict
Description
predicts the test data response using the cross-validated direct forecasting model
predictedY
= cvpredict(CVMdl
)CVMdl
. For each partition window in
CVMdl.Partition
and each horizon step in
CVMdl.Horizon
, the function predicts the response for test observations
by using a model trained on training observations. If an observation is in more than one
test set, the function returns the prediction for that observation, averaged over all test
sets.
Examples
Evaluate Model Using Expanding Window Cross-Validation
Create a cross-validated direct forecasting model using expanding window cross-validation. To evaluate the performance of the model:
Compute the mean squared error (MSE) on each test set using the
cvloss
object function.For each test set, compare the true response values to the predicted response values using the
cvpredict
object function.
Load the sample file TemperatureData.csv
, which contains average daily temperature from January 2015 through July 2016. Read the file into a table. Observe the first eight observations in the table.
Tbl = readtable("TemperatureData.csv");
head(Tbl)

Create a datetime
variable t
that contains the year, month, and day information for each observation in Tbl
.
numericMonth = month(datetime(Tbl.Month, ... InputFormat="MMMM",Locale="en_US")); t = datetime(Tbl.Year,numericMonth,Tbl.Day);
Plot the temperature values in Tbl
over time.
plot(t,Tbl.TemperatureF) xlabel("Date") ylabel("Temperature in Fahrenheit")
Create a direct forecasting model by using the data in Tbl
. Train the model using a bagged ensemble of trees. All three of the predictors (Year
, Month
, and Day
) are leading predictors because their future values are known. To create new predictors by shifting the leading predictor and response variables backward in time, specify the leading predictor lags and the response variable lags.
Mdl = directforecaster(Tbl,"TemperatureF", ... Learner="bag", ... LeadingPredictors="all",LeadingPredictorLags={0:1,0:1,0:7}, ... ResponseLags=1:7)
Mdl = DirectForecaster Horizon: 1 ResponseLags: [1 2 3 4 5 6 7] LeadingPredictors: [1 2 3] LeadingPredictorLags: {[0 1] [0 1] [0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7]} ResponseName: 'TemperatureF' PredictorNames: {'Year' 'Month' 'Day'} CategoricalPredictors: 2 Learners: {[1x1 classreg.learning.regr.CompactRegressionEnsemble]} MaxLag: 7 NumObservations: 565
Mdl
is a DirectForecaster
model object. By default, the horizon is one step ahead. That is, Mdl
predicts a value that is one step into the future.
Partition the time series data in Tbl
using an expanding window cross-validation scheme. Create three training sets and three test sets, where each test set has 100 observations. Note that each observation in Tbl
is in at most one test set.
CVPartition = tspartition(size(Mdl.X,1),"ExpandingWindow",3, ... TestSize=100)
CVPartition = tspartition Type: 'expanding-window' NumObservations: 565 NumTestSets: 3 TrainSize: [265 365 465] TestSize: [100 100 100] StepSize: 100
The training sets increase in size from 265 observations in the first window to 465 observations in the third window.
Create a cross-validated direct forecasting model using the partition specified in CVPartition
. Inspect the Learners
property of the resulting CVMdl
object.
CVMdl = crossval(Mdl,CVPartition)
CVMdl = PartitionedDirectForecaster Partition: [1x1 tspartition] Horizon: 1 ResponseLags: [1 2 3 4 5 6 7] LeadingPredictors: [1 2 3] LeadingPredictorLags: {[0 1] [0 1] [0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7]} ResponseName: 'TemperatureF' PredictorNames: {'Year' 'Month' 'Day'} CategoricalPredictors: 2 Learners: {3x1 cell} MaxLag: 7 NumObservations: 565

CVMdl
is a PartitionedDirectForecaster
model object. The crossval
function trains CVMdl.Learners{1}
using the observations in the first training set, CVMdl.Learner{2}
using the observations in the second training set, and CVMdl.Learner{3}
using the observations in the third training set.
Compute the average test set MSE.
averageMSE = cvloss(CVMdl)
averageMSE = 53.3480
To obtain more information, compute the MSE for each test set.
individualMSE = cvloss(CVMdl,Mode="individual")
individualMSE = 3×1
44.1352
84.0695
31.8393
The models trained on the first and third training sets seem to perform better than the model trained on the second training set.
For each test set observation, predict the temperature value using the corresponding model in CVMdl.Learners
.
predictedY = cvpredict(CVMdl); predictedY(260:end,:)

For each test set, plot the true response values and the predicted response values.

Overall, the cross-validated direct forecasting model is able to predict the trend in temperatures. If you are satisfied with the performance of the cross-validated model, you can use the full DirectForecaster
model Mdl
for forecasting at time steps beyond the available data.
Evaluate Model Using Holdout Validation
Create a partitioned direct forecasting model using holdout validation. To evaluate the performance of the model:
At each horizon step, compute the root relative squared error (RRSE) on the test set using the
cvloss
object function.At each horizon step, compare the true response values to the predicted response values using the
cvpredict
object function.
Load the sample file TemperatureData.csv
, which contains average daily temperature from January 2015 through July 2016. Read the file into a table. Observe the first eight observations in the table.
Tbl = readtable("TemperatureData.csv");

Create a datetime

that contains the year, month, and day information for each observation in Tbl
.
numericMonth = month(datetime(Tbl.Month, ... InputFormat="MMMM",Locale="en_US")); t = datetime(Tbl.Year,numericMonth,Tbl.Day);
Plot the temperature values in Tbl

Create a direct forecasting model by using the data in Tbl
. Specify the horizon steps as one, two, and three steps ahead. Train a model at each horizon using a bagged ensemble of trees. All three of the predictors (Year
, Month
, and Day
) are leading predictors because their future values are known. To create new predictors by shifting the leading predictor and response variables backward in time, specify the leading predictor lags and the response variable lags.
rng("default") Mdl = directforecaster(Tbl,"TemperatureF", ... Horizon=1:3,Learner="bag", ... LeadingPredictors="all",LeadingPredictorLags={0:1,0:1,0:7}, ... ResponseLags=1:7)

Mdl
is a DirectForecaster
model object. Mdl
consists of three regression models: Mdl.Learners{1}
, which predicts one step ahead; Mdl.Learners{2}
, which predicts two steps ahead; and Mdl.Learners{3}
, which predicts three steps ahead.
Partition the time series data in Tbl
using a holdout validation scheme. Reserve 20% of the observations for testing.
holdoutPartition = tspartition(size(Mdl.X,1),"Holdout",0.20)
holdoutPartition = tspartition Type: 'holdout' NumObservations: 565 NumTestSets: 1 TrainSize: 452 TestSize: 113
The test set consists of the latest 113 observations.
Create a partitioned direct forecasting model using the partition specified in holdoutPartition
.
holdoutMdl = crossval(Mdl,holdoutPartition)
holdoutMdl = PartitionedDirectForecaster Partition: [1x1 tspartition] Horizon: [1 2 3] ResponseLags: [1 2 3 4 5 6 7] LeadingPredictors: [1 2 3] LeadingPredictorLags: {[0 1] [0 1] [0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7]} ResponseName: 'TemperatureF' PredictorNames: {'Year' 'Month' 'Day'} CategoricalPredictors: 2 Learners: {[1x1 timeseries.forecaster.CompactDirectForecaster]} MaxLag: 7 NumObservations: 565
holdoutMdl
is a PartitionedDirectForecaster
model object. Because holdoutMdl
uses holdout validation rather than a cross-validation scheme, the Learners
property of the object contains one CompactDirectForecaster
model only.
Like Mdl
, holdoutMdl
contains three regression models. The crossval
function trains holdoutMdl.Learners{1}.Learners{1}
, holdoutMdl.Learners{1}.Learners{2}
, and holdoutMdl.Learners{1}.Learners{3}
using the same training data. However, the three models use different response variables because each model predicts values for a different horizon step.
holdoutMdl.Learners{1}.Learners{1}.ResponseName
ans = 'TemperatureF_Step1'
holdoutMdl.Learners{1}.Learners{2}.ResponseName
ans = 'TemperatureF_Step2'
holdoutMdl.Learners{1}.Learners{3}.ResponseName
ans = 'TemperatureF_Step3'
Compute the root relative squared error (RRSE) on the test data at each horizon step. Use the helper function computeRRSE
(shown at the end of this example). The RRSE indicates how well a model performs relative to the simple model, which always predicts the average of the true values. In particular, when the RRSE is less than 1, the model performs better than the simple model.
holdoutRRSE = cvloss(holdoutMdl,LossFun=@computeRRSE)
holdoutRRSE = 1×3
0.4797 0.5889 0.6103
At each horizon, the direct forecasting model seems to perform better than the simple model.
For each test set observation, predict the temperature value using the corresponding model in holdoutMdl.Learners
.
predictedY = cvpredict(holdoutMdl); predictedY(450:end,:)
ans=116×3 table

Recall that only the latest 113 observations appear in the test set. For observations that do not appear in the test set, the predicted response value is NaN
.
For each test set, plot the true response values and the predicted response values.

Overall, holdoutMdl
is able to predict the trend in temperatures, although it seems to perform best when forecasting one step ahead. If you are satisfied with the performance of the partitioned model, you can use the full DirectForecaster
model Mdl
for forecasting at time steps beyond the available data.
Helper Function
The helper function computeRRSE
computes the RRSE given the true response variable trueY
and the predicted values predY
. This code creates the computeRRSE
helper function.
function rrse = computeRRSE(trueY,predY) error = trueY(:) - predY(:); meanY = mean(trueY(:),"omitnan"); rrse = sqrt(sum(error.^2,"omitnan")/sum((trueY(:) - meanY).^2,"omitnan")); end
