class TimeSeriesImputer(BaseEstimator, TransformerMixin):
"""Imputes missing values in time series data.
This class wraps the :class:`MultivariateImputer` to specifically handle
time series data in pandas DataFrames. It automatically creates lagged and
lead features based on the time series index, then uses these new
features to impute missing values.
Args:
lags (Iterable[int], optional): An iterable of integers specifying
the lags and leads to create as autoregressive features. Positive
integers create lags (e.g., `t-1`), and negative integers create
leads (e.g., `t+1`). Defaults to `(1,)`.
regressor (RegressorMixin, optional): A scikit-learn compatible
regressor used for numeric targets. Defaults to ``FastRidge``.
classifier (ClassifierMixin, optional): A scikit-learn compatible
classifier used for categorical or string targets. Defaults to
``DecisionTreeClassifier(max_depth=4)``.
min_samples_train (int, optional): The minimum number of samples
required to train a model. Defaults to `None`, which means that a
model will be trained if at least one sample is available.
rng (int, optional): A seed for the random number generator. This is
used for reproducible feature sampling when `n_nearest_features`
is not None. Defaults to None.
verbose (int, optional): The verbosity level. Defaults to 0.
scoring (str or callable, optional): The scoring function to use for
feature selection. If 'default', the default scoring function is
used. If a callable, it must take two arguments (the data matrix
and the columns to impute) and return a score matrix.
Defaults to 'default'.
interpolate_gaps_less_than (int, optional): The maximum length of
gaps to interpolate linearly. If None, no linear interpolation is
performed. Defaults to None.
add_time_features (bool, optional): Whether to add deterministic time
features before model-based imputation. These features are fully
observed after reindexing, which helps fill contiguous missing
timestamp blocks. Defaults to True.
Attributes:
imputation_features_ (dict or None): A dictionary mapping each imputed
column to the features used to impute it. This attribute is only
populated when `n_nearest_features` is not None. The keys and
values are the column names, which will include the lagged/lead
features created during the imputation process.
