• time_series_split(): A convenient way to return a single split from time_series_cv(). Returns the split in the same format as rsample::initial_time_split().

Improvements

Plotting Improvements

• All plotting functions now support Tab Completion (a minor breaking change was needed to do so, see breaking changes below)
• plot_time_series():
  • Add .legend_show to toggle on/off legends.
  • Permit numeric index (fix issue with smoother failing)

Breaking Changes

• Tab Completion: Replace ... with .facet_vars or .ccf_vars. This change is needed to improve tab-completion. It affects :
  • plot_time_series()
  • plot_acf_diagnostics()
  • plot_anomaly_diagnostics()
  • plot_seasonal_diagnostics()
  • plot_stl_diagnostics()

Bug Fixes

• fourier_vec() and step_fourier_vec(): Add error if observations have zero difference. Issue #40.

timetk 2.0.0

New Interactive Plotting Functions

• plot_anomaly_diagnostics(): Visualize Anomalies for One or More Time Series

New Data Wrangling Functions

• future_frame(): Make a future tibble from an existing time-based tibble.

New Diagnostic / Data Processing Functions

• tk_anomaly_diagnostics() - Group-wise anomaly detection and diagnostics. A wrapper for the anomalize R package functions without importing anomalize.

New Vectorized Functions:

• ts_clean_vec() - Replace Outliers & Missing Values in a Time Series
• standardize_vec() - Centers and scales a time series to mean 0, standard deviation 1
• normalize_vec() - Normalizes a time series to Range: (0, 1)

New Recipes Preprocessing Steps:

• step_ts_pad() - Preprocessing for padding time series data. Adds rows to fill in gaps and can be used with step_ts_impute() to interpolate going from low to high frequency!
• step_ts_clean() - Preprocessing step for cleaning outliers and imputing missing values in a time series.

New Parsing Functions

• parse_date2() and parse_datetime2(): These are similar to readr::parse_date() and lubridate::as_date() in that they parse character vectors to date and datetimes. The key advantage is SPEED. parse_date2() uses anytime package to process using C++ Boost.Date_Time library.

Improvements:

• plot_acf_diagnostics(): The .lags argument now handles time-based phrases (e.g. .lags = "1 month").
• time_series_cv(): Implements time-based phrases (e.g. initial = "5 years" and assess = "1 year")
• tk_make_future_timeseries(): The n_future argument has been deprecated for a new length_out argument that accepts both numeric input (e.g. length_out = 12) and time-based phrases (e.g. length_out = "12 months"). A major improvement is that numeric values define the number of timestamps returned even if weekends are removed or holidays are removed. Thus, you can always anticipate the length. (Issue #19).
• diff_vec: Now reports the initial values used in the differencing calculation.

Bug Fixes:

• plot_time_series():
  • Fix name collision when .value = .value.
• tk_make_future_timeseries():
  • Respect timezones
• time_series_cv():
  • Fix incorrect calculation of starts/stops
  • Make skip = 1 default. skip = 0 does not make sense.
  • Fix issue with skip adding 1 to stops.
  • Fix printing method
• plot_time_series_cv_plan() & tk_time_series_cv_plan():
  • Prevent name collisions when underlying data has column “id” or “splits”
• tk_make_future_timeseries():
  • Fix bug when day of month doesn’t exist. Lubridate period() returns NA. Fix implemented with ceiling_date().
• pad_by_time():
  • Fix pad_value so only inserts pad values where new row was inserted.
• step_ts_clean(), step_ts_impute():
  • Fix issue with lambda = NULL

Breaking Changes:

These should not be of major impact since the 1.0.0 version was just released.

• Renamed impute_ts_vec() to ts_impute_vec() for consistency with ts_clean_vec()
• Renamed step_impute_ts() to step_ts_impute() for consistency with underlying function
• Renamed roll_apply_vec() to slidify_vec() for consistency with slidify() & relationship to slider R package
• Renamed step_roll_apply to step_slidify() for consistency with slidify() & relationship to slider R package
• Renamed tk_augment_roll_apply to tk_augment_slidify() for consistency with slidify() & relationship to slider R package
• plot_time_series_cv_plan() and tk_time_series_cv_plan(): Changed argument from .rset to .data.
