--- title: expo description: This page provides a comprehensive guide to the expo usage for executing a Probabilistic Exponential Smoothing forecast. Parameters and their usage are laid out, along with examples for reference. keywords: - Probabilistic Exponential Smoothing - forecast - expo - trend - dampen - naive - target_column - n_days - seasonal_periods - start_window - s_end_date - s_start_date - residuals - forecast_only - export_pred_raw - parameters - usage examples --- import HeadTitle from '@site/src/components/General/HeadTitle.tsx'; Perform Probabilistic Exponential Smoothing forecast: https://unit8co.github.io/darts/generated_api/darts.models.forecasting.exponential_smoothing.html ### Usage ```python expo [--trend {N,A,M}] [--dampen DAMPEN] [--naive] [-d {}] [-c TARGET_COLUMN] [-n N_DAYS] [-s {N,A,M}] [-p SEASONAL_PERIODS] [-w START_WINDOW] [--end S_END_DATE] [--start S_START_DATE] [--residuals] [--forecast-only] [--export-pred-raw] ``` --- ## Parameters | Name | Description | Default | Optional | Choices | | ---- | ----------- | ------- | -------- | ------- | | trend | Trend: N: None, A: Additive, M: Multiplicative. | A | True | N, A, M | | dampen | Dampening | F | True | None | | naive | Show the naive baseline for a model. | False | True | None | | target_dataset | The name of the dataset you want to select | None | True | None | | target_column | The name of the specific column you want to use | close | True | None | | n_days | prediction days. | 5 | True | None | | seasonal | Seasonality: N: None, A: Additive, M: Multiplicative. | A | True | N, A, M | | seasonal_periods | Seasonal periods: 4: Quarterly, 7: Daily | 7 | True | None | | start_window | Start point for rolling training and forecast window. 0.0-1.0 | 0.85 | True | None | | s_end_date | The end date (format YYYY-MM-DD) to select for testing | None | True | None | | s_start_date | The start date (format YYYY-MM-DD) to select for testing | None | True | None | | residuals | Show the residuals for the model. | False | True | None | | forecast_only | Do not plot the historical data without forecasts. | False | True | None | | export_pred_raw | Export predictions to a csv file. | False | True | None | --- ## Examples ```python 2022 Jul 23, 10:36 (๐Ÿฆ‹) /forecast/ $ load GME_20220719_123734.csv -a GME 2022 Jul 23, 10:52 (๐Ÿฆ‹) /forecast/ $ expo GME 100%|โ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆ| 115/115 [00:1600:00, 6.80it/s] Exponential smoothing obtains MAPE: 12.88% Actual price: $ 146.64 โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”ณโ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”“ โ”ƒ Datetime โ”ƒ Prediction โ”ƒ โ”กโ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ•‡โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”ฉ โ”‚ 2022-07-19 00:00:00 โ”‚ $ 146.35 โ”‚ โ”œโ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”ผโ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”ค โ”‚ 2022-07-20 00:00:00 โ”‚ $ 148.63 โ”‚ โ”œโ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”ผโ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”ค โ”‚ 2022-07-21 00:00:00 โ”‚ $ 148.86 โ”‚ โ”œโ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”ผโ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”ค โ”‚ 2022-07-22 00:00:00 โ”‚ $ 151.76 โ”‚ โ”œโ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”ผโ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”ค โ”‚ 2022-07-25 00:00:00 โ”‚ $ 149.74 โ”‚ โ””โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”ดโ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”˜ ``` ![expo](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/72827203/180615313-e45d6cb3-06a8-45aa-ae4e-505df07e7210.png) ---
