sklearn: User defined cross validation for time series data

Question

I\'m trying to solve a machine learning problem. I have a specific dataset with time-series element. For this problem I\'m using well-known python library - sklea

Answer 1

You can obtain the desired cross-validation splits without using sklearn. Here's an example

import numpy as np

from sklearn.svm import SVR
from sklearn.feature_selection import RFECV

# Generate some data.
N = 10
X_train = np.random.randn(N, 3)
y_train = np.random.randn(N)

# Define the splits.
idxs = np.arange(N)
cv_splits = [(idxs[:i], idxs[i:]) for i in range(1, N)]

# Create the RFE object and compute a cross-validated score.
svr = SVR(kernel="linear")
rfecv = RFECV(estimator=svr, step=1, cv=cv_splits)
rfecv.fit(X_train, y_train)
