Client: Aws\ForecastService\ForecastServiceClient
Service ID: forecast
Version: 2018-06-26

This page describes the parameters and results for the operations of the Amazon Forecast Service (2018-06-26), and shows how to use the Aws\ForecastService\ForecastServiceClient object to call the described operations. This documentation is specific to the 2018-06-26 API version of the service.

Operation Summary

Each of the following operations can be created from a client using $client->getCommand('CommandName'), where "CommandName" is the name of one of the following operations. Note: a command is a value that encapsulates an operation and the parameters used to create an HTTP request.

You can also create and send a command immediately using the magic methods available on a client object: $client->commandName(/* parameters */). You can send the command asynchronously (returning a promise) by appending the word "Async" to the operation name: $client->commandNameAsync(/* parameters */).

Operations

CreateAutoPredictor

$result = $client->createAutoPredictor([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->createAutoPredictorAsync([/* ... */]);

Creates an Amazon Forecast predictor.

Amazon Forecast creates predictors with AutoPredictor, which involves applying the optimal combination of algorithms to each time series in your datasets. You can use CreateAutoPredictor to create new predictors or upgrade/retrain existing predictors.

Creating new predictors

The following parameters are required when creating a new predictor:

  • PredictorName - A unique name for the predictor.

  • DatasetGroupArn - The ARN of the dataset group used to train the predictor.

  • ForecastFrequency - The granularity of your forecasts (hourly, daily, weekly, etc).

  • ForecastHorizon - The number of time-steps that the model predicts. The forecast horizon is also called the prediction length.

When creating a new predictor, do not specify a value for ReferencePredictorArn.

Upgrading and retraining predictors

The following parameters are required when retraining or upgrading a predictor:

  • PredictorName - A unique name for the predictor.

  • ReferencePredictorArn - The ARN of the predictor to retrain or upgrade.

When upgrading or retraining a predictor, only specify values for the ReferencePredictorArn and PredictorName.

Parameter Details

Members
DataConfig
Type: DataConfig structure

The data configuration for your dataset group and any additional datasets.

EncryptionConfig
Type: EncryptionConfig structure

An Key Management Service (KMS) key and an Identity and Access Management (IAM) role that Amazon Forecast can assume to access the key. You can specify this optional object in the CreateDataset and CreatePredictor requests.

ExplainPredictor
Type: boolean

Create an Explainability resource for the predictor.

ForecastDimensions
Type: Array of strings

An array of dimension (field) names that specify how to group the generated forecast.

For example, if you are generating forecasts for item sales across all your stores, and your dataset contains a store_id field, you would specify store_id as a dimension to group sales forecasts for each store.

ForecastFrequency
Type: string

The frequency of predictions in a forecast.

Valid intervals are an integer followed by Y (Year), M (Month), W (Week), D (Day), H (Hour), and min (Minute). For example, "1D" indicates every day and "15min" indicates every 15 minutes. You cannot specify a value that would overlap with the next larger frequency. That means, for example, you cannot specify a frequency of 60 minutes, because that is equivalent to 1 hour. The valid values for each frequency are the following:

  • Minute - 1-59

  • Hour - 1-23

  • Day - 1-6

  • Week - 1-4

  • Month - 1-11

  • Year - 1

Thus, if you want every other week forecasts, specify "2W". Or, if you want quarterly forecasts, you specify "3M".

The frequency must be greater than or equal to the TARGET_TIME_SERIES dataset frequency.

When a RELATED_TIME_SERIES dataset is provided, the frequency must be equal to the RELATED_TIME_SERIES dataset frequency.

ForecastHorizon
Type: int

The number of time-steps that the model predicts. The forecast horizon is also called the prediction length.

The maximum forecast horizon is the lesser of 500 time-steps or 1/4 of the TARGET_TIME_SERIES dataset length. If you are retraining an existing AutoPredictor, then the maximum forecast horizon is the lesser of 500 time-steps or 1/3 of the TARGET_TIME_SERIES dataset length.

If you are upgrading to an AutoPredictor or retraining an existing AutoPredictor, you cannot update the forecast horizon parameter. You can meet this requirement by providing longer time-series in the dataset.

ForecastTypes
Type: Array of strings

The forecast types used to train a predictor. You can specify up to five forecast types. Forecast types can be quantiles from 0.01 to 0.99, by increments of 0.01 or higher. You can also specify the mean forecast with mean.

MonitorConfig
Type: MonitorConfig structure

The configuration details for predictor monitoring. Provide a name for the monitor resource to enable predictor monitoring.

Predictor monitoring allows you to see how your predictor's performance changes over time. For more information, see Predictor Monitoring.

OptimizationMetric
Type: string

The accuracy metric used to optimize the predictor.

PredictorName
Required: Yes
Type: string

A unique name for the predictor

ReferencePredictorArn
Type: string

The ARN of the predictor to retrain or upgrade. This parameter is only used when retraining or upgrading a predictor. When creating a new predictor, do not specify a value for this parameter.

When upgrading or retraining a predictor, only specify values for the ReferencePredictorArn and PredictorName. The value for PredictorName must be a unique predictor name.

Tags
Type: Array of Tag structures

Optional metadata to help you categorize and organize your predictors. Each tag consists of a key and an optional value, both of which you define. Tag keys and values are case sensitive.

The following restrictions apply to tags:

  • For each resource, each tag key must be unique and each tag key must have one value.

  • Maximum number of tags per resource: 50.

  • Maximum key length: 128 Unicode characters in UTF-8.

  • Maximum value length: 256 Unicode characters in UTF-8.

  • Accepted characters: all letters and numbers, spaces representable in UTF-8, and + - = . _ : / @. If your tagging schema is used across other services and resources, the character restrictions of those services also apply.

  • Key prefixes cannot include any upper or lowercase combination of aws: or AWS:. Values can have this prefix. If a tag value has aws as its prefix but the key does not, Forecast considers it to be a user tag and will count against the limit of 50 tags. Tags with only the key prefix of aws do not count against your tags per resource limit. You cannot edit or delete tag keys with this prefix.

TimeAlignmentBoundary
Type: TimeAlignmentBoundary structure

The time boundary Forecast uses to align and aggregate any data that doesn't align with your forecast frequency. Provide the unit of time and the time boundary as a key value pair. For more information on specifying a time boundary, see Specifying a Time Boundary. If you don't provide a time boundary, Forecast uses a set of Default Time Boundaries.

CreateDataset

$result = $client->createDataset([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->createDatasetAsync([/* ... */]);

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 Importing datasets.

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

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

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

Domain
Required: Yes
Type: string

The domain associated with the dataset. When you add a dataset to a dataset group, this value and the value specified for the Domain parameter of the CreateDatasetGroup operation must match.

The Domain and DatasetType that you choose determine the fields that must be present in the training data that you import to the dataset. For example, if you choose the RETAIL domain and TARGET_TIME_SERIES as the DatasetType, Amazon Forecast requires item_id, timestamp, and demand fields to be present in your data. For more information, see Importing datasets.

EncryptionConfig
Type: EncryptionConfig structure

An Key Management Service (KMS) key and the Identity and Access Management (IAM) role that Amazon Forecast can assume to access the key.

Schema
Required: Yes
Type: Schema structure

The schema for the dataset. The schema attributes and their order must match the fields in your data. The dataset Domain and DatasetType that you choose determine the minimum required fields in your training data. For information about the required fields for a specific dataset domain and type, see Dataset Domains and Dataset Types.

Tags
Type: Array of Tag structures

The optional metadata that you apply to the dataset to help you categorize and organize them. Each tag consists of a key and an optional value, both of which you define.

The following basic restrictions apply to tags:

  • Maximum number of tags per resource - 50.

  • For each resource, each tag key must be unique, and each tag key can have only one value.

  • Maximum key length - 128 Unicode characters in UTF-8.

CreateDatasetImportJob

$result = $client->createDatasetImportJob([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->createDatasetImportJobAsync([/* ... */]);

Imports your training data to an Amazon Forecast dataset. You provide the location of your training data in an Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3) bucket and the Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the dataset that you want to import the data to.

You must specify a DataSource object that includes an Identity and Access Management (IAM) role that Amazon Forecast can assume to access the data, as Amazon Forecast makes a copy of your data and processes it in an internal Amazon Web Services system. For more information, see Set up permissions.

The training data must be in CSV or Parquet format. The delimiter must be a comma (,).

You can specify the path to a specific file, the S3 bucket, or to a folder in the S3 bucket. For the latter two cases, Amazon Forecast imports all files up to the limit of 10,000 files.

Because dataset imports are not aggregated, your most recent dataset import is the one that is used when training a predictor or generating a forecast. Make sure that your most recent dataset import contains all of the data you want to model off of, and not just the new data collected since the previous import.

To get a list of all your dataset import jobs, filtered by specified criteria, use the ListDatasetImportJobs operation.

If encryption is used, DataSource must include an Key Management Service (KMS) key and the IAM role must allow Amazon Forecast permission to access the key. The KMS key and IAM role must match those specified in the EncryptionConfig parameter of the CreateDataset operation.

DatasetArn
Required: Yes
Type: string

The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the Amazon Forecast dataset that you want to import data to.

DatasetImportJobName
Required: Yes
Type: string

The name for the dataset import job. We recommend including the current timestamp in the name, for example, 20190721DatasetImport. This can help you avoid getting a ResourceAlreadyExistsException exception.

Format
Type: string

The format of the imported data, CSV or PARQUET. The default value is CSV.

GeolocationFormat
Type: string

The format of the geolocation attribute. The geolocation attribute can be formatted in one of two ways:

  • LAT_LONG - the latitude and longitude in decimal format (Example: 47.61_-122.33).

  • CC_POSTALCODE (US Only) - the country code (US), followed by the 5-digit ZIP code (Example: US_98121).

ImportMode
Type: string

Specifies whether the dataset import job is a FULL or INCREMENTAL import. A FULL dataset import replaces all of the existing data with the newly imported data. An INCREMENTAL import appends the imported data to the existing data.

Tags
Type: Array of Tag structures

The optional metadata that you apply to the dataset import job to help you categorize and organize them. Each tag consists of a key and an optional value, both of which you define.

The following basic restrictions apply to tags:

  • Maximum number of tags per resource - 50.

  • For each resource, each tag key must be unique, and each tag key can have only one value.

  • Maximum key length - 128 Unicode characters in UTF-8.

  • Maximum value length - 256 Unicode characters in UTF-8.

  • If your tagging schema is used across multiple services and resources, remember that other services may have restrictions on allowed characters. Generally allowed characters are: letters, numbers, and spaces representable in UTF-8, and the following characters: + - = . _ : / @.

  • Tag keys and values are case sensitive.

  • Do not use aws:, AWS:, or any upper or lowercase combination of such as a prefix for keys as it is reserved for Amazon Web Services use. You cannot edit or delete tag keys with this prefix. Values can have this prefix. If a tag value has aws as its prefix but the key does not, then Forecast considers it to be a user tag and will count against the limit of 50 tags. Tags with only the key prefix of aws do not count against your tags per resource limit.

TimeZone
Type: string

A single time zone for every item in your dataset. This option is ideal for datasets with all timestamps within a single time zone, or if all timestamps are normalized to a single time zone.

Refer to the Joda-Time API for a complete list of valid time zone names.

TimestampFormat
Type: string

The format of timestamps in the dataset. The format that you specify depends on the DataFrequency specified when the dataset was created. The following formats are supported

  • "yyyy-MM-dd"

    For the following data frequencies: Y, M, W, and D

  • "yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss"

    For the following data frequencies: H, 30min, 15min, and 1min; and optionally, for: Y, M, W, and D

If the format isn't specified, Amazon Forecast expects the format to be "yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss".

UseGeolocationForTimeZone
Type: boolean

Automatically derive time zone information from the geolocation attribute. This option is ideal for datasets that contain timestamps in multiple time zones and those timestamps are expressed in local time.

CreateExplainability

$result = $client->createExplainability([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->createExplainabilityAsync([/* ... */]);

Explainability is only available for Forecasts and Predictors generated from an AutoPredictor (CreateAutoPredictor)

Creates an Amazon Forecast Explainability.

Explainability helps you better understand how the attributes in your datasets impact forecast. Amazon Forecast uses a metric called Impact scores to quantify the relative impact of each attribute and determine whether they increase or decrease forecast values.

To enable Forecast Explainability, your predictor must include at least one of the following: related time series, item metadata, or additional datasets like Holidays and the Weather Index.

CreateExplainability accepts either a Predictor ARN or Forecast ARN. To receive aggregated Impact scores for all time series and time points in your datasets, provide a Predictor ARN. To receive Impact scores for specific time series and time points, provide a Forecast ARN.

CreateExplainability with a Predictor ARN

You can only have one Explainability resource per predictor. If you already enabled ExplainPredictor in CreateAutoPredictor, that predictor already has an Explainability resource.

The following parameters are required when providing a Predictor ARN:

  • ExplainabilityName - A unique name for the Explainability.

  • ResourceArn - The Arn of the predictor.

  • TimePointGranularity - Must be set to “ALL”.

  • TimeSeriesGranularity - Must be set to “ALL”.

Do not specify a value for the following parameters:

  • DataSource - Only valid when TimeSeriesGranularity is “SPECIFIC”.

  • Schema - Only valid when TimeSeriesGranularity is “SPECIFIC”.

  • StartDateTime - Only valid when TimePointGranularity is “SPECIFIC”.

  • EndDateTime - Only valid when TimePointGranularity is “SPECIFIC”.

CreateExplainability with a Forecast ARN

You can specify a maximum of 50 time series and 500 time points.

The following parameters are required when providing a Predictor ARN:

  • ExplainabilityName - A unique name for the Explainability.

  • ResourceArn - The Arn of the forecast.

  • TimePointGranularity - Either “ALL” or “SPECIFIC”.

  • TimeSeriesGranularity - Either “ALL” or “SPECIFIC”.

If you set TimeSeriesGranularity to “SPECIFIC”, you must also provide the following:

  • DataSource - The S3 location of the CSV file specifying your time series.

  • Schema - The Schema defines the attributes and attribute types listed in the Data Source.

If you set TimePointGranularity to “SPECIFIC”, you must also provide the following:

  • StartDateTime - The first timestamp in the range of time points.

  • EndDateTime - The last timestamp in the range of time points.

CreateForecast

$result = $client->createForecast([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->createForecastAsync([/* ... */]);

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. 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.

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.

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

By default, a forecast includes predictions for every item (item_id) in the dataset group that was used to train the predictor. However, you can use the TimeSeriesSelector object to generate a forecast on a subset of time series. Forecast creation is skipped for any time series that you specify that are not in the input dataset. The forecast export file will not contain these time series or their forecasted values.

CreatePredictor

$result = $client->createPredictor([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->createPredictorAsync([/* ... */]);

This operation creates a legacy predictor that does not include all the predictor functionalities provided by Amazon Forecast. To create a predictor that is compatible with all aspects of Forecast, use CreateAutoPredictor.

Creates an Amazon Forecast predictor.

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

Amazon Forecast uses the algorithm to train a predictor using the latest version of the datasets in the specified dataset group. You can then generate a forecast using the CreateForecast operation.

To see the evaluation metrics, use the GetAccuracyMetrics operation.

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.

By default, predictors are trained and evaluated at the 0.1 (P10), 0.5 (P50), and 0.9 (P90) quantiles. You can choose custom forecast types to train and evaluate your predictor by setting the ForecastTypes.

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 losses over the forecast types. By default, these are the 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.

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.

Parameter Details

Members
AlgorithmArn
Type: 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/CNN-QR

  • arn:aws:forecast:::algorithm/Deep_AR_Plus

  • arn:aws:forecast:::algorithm/ETS

  • arn:aws:forecast:::algorithm/NPTS

  • arn:aws:forecast:::algorithm/Prophet

AutoMLOverrideStrategy
Type: string

The LatencyOptimized AutoML override strategy is only available in private beta. Contact Amazon Web Services Support or your account manager to learn more about access privileges.

Used to overide the default AutoML strategy, which is to optimize predictor accuracy. To apply an AutoML strategy that minimizes training time, use LatencyOptimized.

This parameter is only valid for predictors trained using AutoML.

EncryptionConfig
Type: EncryptionConfig structure

An Key Management Service (KMS) key and the Identity and Access Management (IAM) role that Amazon Forecast can assume to access the key.

EvaluationParameters
Type: EvaluationParameters structure

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.

FeaturizationConfig
Required: Yes
Type: FeaturizationConfig structure

The featurization configuration.

ForecastHorizon
Required: Yes
Type: int

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.

ForecastTypes
Type: Array of strings

Specifies the forecast types used to train a predictor. You can specify up to five forecast types. Forecast types can be quantiles from 0.01 to 0.99, by increments of 0.01 or higher. You can also specify the mean forecast with mean.

The default value is ["0.10", "0.50", "0.9"].

HPOConfig

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.

InputDataConfig
Required: Yes
Type: InputDataConfig structure

Describes the dataset group that contains the data to use to train the predictor.

OptimizationMetric
Type: string

The accuracy metric used to optimize the predictor.

PerformAutoML
Type: 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
Type: 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 algorithms support HPO:

  • DeepAR+

  • CNN-QR

PredictorName
Required: Yes
Type: string

A name for the predictor.

Tags
Type: Array of Tag structures

The optional metadata that you apply to the predictor to help you categorize and organize them. Each tag consists of a key and an optional value, both of which you define.

The following basic restrictions apply to tags:

  • Maximum number of tags per resource - 50.

  • For each resource, each tag key must be unique, and each tag key can have only one value.

  • Maximum key length - 128 Unicode characters in UTF-8.

  • Maximum value length - 256 Unicode characters in UTF-8.

  • If your tagging schema is used across multiple services and resources, remember that other services may have restrictions on allowed characters. Generally allowed characters are: letters, numbers, and spaces representable in UTF-8, and the following characters: + - = . _ : / @.

  • Tag keys and values are case sensitive.

  • Do not use aws:, AWS:, or any upper or lowercase combination of such as a prefix for keys as it is reserved for Amazon Web Services use. You cannot edit or delete tag keys with this prefix. Values can have this prefix. If a tag value has aws as its prefix but the key does not, then Forecast considers it to be a user tag and will count against the limit of 50 tags. Tags with only the key prefix of aws do not count against your tags per resource limit.

TrainingParameters
Type: Associative array of custom strings keys (ParameterKey) to strings

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.

CreateWhatIfAnalysis

$result = $client->createWhatIfAnalysis([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->createWhatIfAnalysisAsync([/* ... */]);

What-if analysis is a scenario modeling technique where you make a hypothetical change to a time series and compare the forecasts generated by these changes against the baseline, unchanged time series. It is important to remember that the purpose of a what-if analysis is to understand how a forecast can change given different modifications to the baseline time series.

For example, imagine you are a clothing retailer who is considering an end of season sale to clear space for new styles. After creating a baseline forecast, you can use a what-if analysis to investigate how different sales tactics might affect your goals.

You could create a scenario where everything is given a 25% markdown, and another where everything is given a fixed dollar markdown. You could create a scenario where the sale lasts for one week and another where the sale lasts for one month. With a what-if analysis, you can compare many different scenarios against each other.

Note that a what-if analysis is meant to display what the forecasting model has learned and how it will behave in the scenarios that you are evaluating. Do not blindly use the results of the what-if analysis to make business decisions. For instance, forecasts might not be accurate for novel scenarios where there is no reference available to determine whether a forecast is good.

The TimeSeriesSelector object defines the items that you want in the what-if analysis.

GetAccuracyMetrics

$result = $client->getAccuracyMetrics([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->getAccuracyMetricsAsync([/* ... */]);

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 Predictor 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.

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.

This object belongs to the CreatePredictor operation. If you created your predictor with CreateAutoPredictor, see AttributeConfig.

In a CreatePredictor operation, the specified algorithm trains a model using the specified dataset group. You can optionally tell the operation to modify data fields prior to training a model. These modifications are referred to as featurization.

You define featurization using the FeaturizationConfig object. You specify an array of transformations, one for each field that you want to featurize. You then include the FeaturizationConfig object in your CreatePredictor request. Amazon Forecast applies the featurization to the TARGET_TIME_SERIES and RELATED_TIME_SERIES datasets before model training.

You can create multiple featurization configurations. For example, you might call the CreatePredictor operation twice by specifying different featurization configurations.

Valid intervals are an integer followed by Y (Year), M (Month), W (Week), D (Day), H (Hour), and min (Minute). For example, "1D" indicates every day and "15min" indicates every 15 minutes. You cannot specify a value that would overlap with the next larger frequency. That means, for example, you cannot specify a frequency of 60 minutes, because that is equivalent to 1 hour. The valid values for each frequency are the following:

  • Minute - 1-59

  • Hour - 1-23

  • Day - 1-6

  • Week - 1-4

  • Month - 1-11

  • Year - 1

Thus, if you want every other week forecasts, specify "2W". Or, if you want quarterly forecasts, you specify "3M".

The frequency must be greater than or equal to the TARGET_TIME_SERIES dataset frequency.

When a RELATED_TIME_SERIES dataset is provided, the frequency must be equal to the TARGET_TIME_SERIES dataset frequency.

  • middlefill: zero, value, median, mean, min, max

  • backfill: zero, value, median, mean, min, max

  • futurefill: zero, value, median, mean, min, max

To set a filling method to a specific value, set the fill parameter to value and define the value in a corresponding _value parameter. For example, to set backfilling to a value of 2, include the following: "backfill": "value" and "backfill_value":"2".

Tag

Description

The optional metadata that you apply to a resource to help you categorize and organize them. Each tag consists of a key and an optional value, both of which you define.

The following basic restrictions apply to tags:

  • Maximum number of tags per resource - 50.

  • For each resource, each tag key must be unique, and each tag key can have only one value.

  • Maximum key length - 128 Unicode characters in UTF-8.

  • Maximum value length - 256 Unicode characters in UTF-8.

  • If your tagging schema is used across multiple services and resources, remember that other services may have restrictions on allowed characters. Generally allowed characters are: letters, numbers, and spaces representable in UTF-8, and the following characters: + - = . _ : / @.

  • Tag keys and values are case sensitive.

  • Do not use aws:, AWS:, or any upper or lowercase combination of such as a prefix for keys as it is reserved for Amazon Web Services use. You cannot edit or delete tag keys with this prefix. Values can have this prefix. If a tag value has aws as its prefix but the key does not, then Forecast considers it to be a user tag and will count against the limit of 50 tags. Tags with only the key prefix of aws do not count against your tags per resource limit.
