PROPHET_COMPONENTS

Download Flojoy Studio to try this app
The PROPHET_COMPONENTS node plots the components of the prophet model trained in the PROPHET_PREDICT node. This is the output plotly graph from the 'plot_components_plotly' function from 'prophet.plot'. It expects the trained Prophet model from the PROPHET_PREDICT node as input. If 'run_forecast' was True in that node, the forecasted dataframe will be available as the 'm' attribute of the default input. Otherwise, this will make the predictions on the raw dataframe (in which case it will be the 'm' attribute of the default input). You can tell if that forecasted dataframe is available via the 'extra' field of data input, 'run_forecast' (data.extra["run_forecast"]). Inputs ------ default : DataFrame the DataContainer to be visualized data : DataContainer the DataContainer that holds prophet model and forecast data in the 'extra' field Params: periods : int The number of periods out to predict. Only used if the node passed into this node (i.e. PROPHET_PREDICT) did NOT return the forecast. If the forecast was included in the DataContainer, this parameter will be ignored. Default = 365 Returns: out : Plotly the DataContainer containing the Plotly visualization of the prophet model

In this example, the TIMESERIES node generates random time series data

This dataframe is then passed to the PROPHET_PREDICT node, with the default parameters of run_forecast=True and periods=365. This node trains a Prophet model and runs a prediction forecast over a 365 period.

It returns a DataContainer with the following

  • type: dataframe
  • m: The forecasted dataframe
  • extra:
    • run_forecast: True (because that’s what was passed in)
    • prophet: The trained Prophet model
    • original: The dataframe passed into the node

Finally, this is passed to 2 nodes, PROPHET_PLOT and PROPHET_COMPONENTS, wherein the forecast and the trend components are plotted in Plotly. Because a forecast was already run, the PROPHET_PLOT and PROPHET_COMPONENTS nodes know to use the already predicted dataframe.
