Automatically select and fit an exponential smoothing model on the
provided data using the ets() function from the R Forecast package,
and use it to produce a forecast over the given horizon.
Args:
x: an R time series, obtained from converters.ts(), or a Pandas Series
with the correct index (e.g. from converters.sequence_as_series().
h: Forecast horizon; default is 2 full periods of a periodic series,
or 10 steps for non-seasonal series.
model_spec : Default is 'ZZZ'. A 3-letter string denoting the model type.
Letters denote error, trend, and seasonal parts: A=additive,
N=none, M=multiplicative, Z=automatically selected. Legal
values for first part are (A, M, Z), all values are legal
for other parts.
damped : If True, use a damped trend model.
Default is NULL, which tries damped/undamped models and
selects best model according to the selected ic.
alpha : Smoothing parameter for error term.
Default is NULL, which fits this value.
beta : Smoothing paramter for trend component.
Default is NULL, which fits this value.
gamma : Smoothing parameter for seasonal component.
Default is NULL, which fits this value.
phi : Damping parameter. Default is NULL, which fits this value.
additive_only : Default False. If True, only try additive models.
lam : BoxCox transformation parameter. The default is R's NULL value.
If NULL, no transformation is applied. Otherwise, a Box-Cox
transformation is applied before forecasting and inverted after.
opt_crit : Optimization criterion. Default is 'lik' for log-likelihood.
Other values are 'mse' (mean squared error), 'amse' (MSE averaged
over first nmse forecast horizons), 'sigma' (standard deviation of
residuals), and 'mae' (mean absolute error).
nmse : number of steps in average MSE, if 'amse' is opt_crit.
Restricted to 1 <= nmse <= 10.
ic : information crierion. Default is 'aicc' for bias-corrected AIC.
Other values are 'aic' for regular AIC, or 'bic' for BIC.
allow_multiplicative_trend : Default is False. If True, consider models
with a multiplicative trend component. That type of model may grow
explosively.
level : A number or list/tuple of prediction interval confidence values.
Default is 80% and 95% intervals.
Returns:
If x is an R ts object, an R forecast is returned. If x is a Pandas
Series, a Pandas Data Frame is returned.

Use the auto.arima function from the R Forecast package to automatically

generate a forecast.
Args:
x: an R time series, obtained from converters.ts(), or a Pandas Series
with the correct index (e.g. from converters.sequence_as_series().
h : Forecast horizon; default is 2 full periods of a periodic series,
or 10 steps for non-seasonal series.
d : order of first differencing. Default is NA, which selects this
value based on the value of 'test' (KPSS test by default).
D : order of seasonal differencing. Default is NA, which selects this
value based on 'seasonal_test' (OCSB test by default).
max_p : maximum value for non-seasonal AR order
max_q : maximum value for non-seasonal MA order
max_P : maximum value for seasonal AR order
max_Q : maximum value for seasonal MA order
max_order : maximum value of p + q + P + Q
start_p : starting value for non-seasonal AR order
start_q : starting value for non-seasonal MA order
start_P : starting value for seasonal AR order
start_Q : starting value for seasonal MA order
stationary : Default is False. If True, only consider stationary models.
seasonal : Default is True. If False, only consider non-seasonal models.
ic : information crierion. Default is 'aicc' for bias-corrected AIC.
Other values are 'aic' for regular AIC, or 'bic' for BIC.
xreg : An optional vector or matrix of regressors, which must have one
row/element for each point in x. Default is NULL, for no regressors.
newxreg : If regressors were used to fit the model, then they must be
supplied for the forecast period as newxreg. If newxreg is present,
h is ignored.
test : Test to use to determine number of first differences. Default
is 'kpss', for the KPSS test. Other values are 'adf' for augmented
Dickey-Fuller, or 'pp' for Phillips-Perron.
seasonal_test : Test to use to determine number of seasonal differences.
Default is 'ocsb' for the Osborn-Chui-Smith-Birchenhall test.
The alternative is 'ch' for the Canova-Hansen test.
lam : BoxCox transformation parameter. The default is R's NULL value.
If NULL, no transformation is applied. Otherwise, a Box-Cox
transformation is applied before forecasting and inverted after.
level : A number or list/tuple of prediction interval confidence values.
