Locally Weighted Scatterplot Smoothing (LOWESS), is a non-parametric regression technique to obtain a smooth line through a scatterplot.
This class implementation applies LOWESS to a noisy time-series signal to obtain a smoother signal as a feature.
- property fraction: float
-
Returns fraction of datapoints used for estimation by LOWESS.
- Returns:
-
(float) Fraction of datapoints.
- property dataframe: pandas.DataFrame
-
Returns dataframe with original time series and relevant signals generated by the noise reduction method.
- Returns:
-
(pd.DataFrame) Pandas DataFrame with relevant signals.
- property signal: numpy.array
-
Returns main signal generated from noise reduction method.
- Returns:
-
(np.array) Main signal generated from noise reduction method.
- __slots__ = ()
- set_fraction(fraction: float)
-
Set LOWESS fraction value.
- Parameters:
-
fraction – (int) Fraction amount to use for estimations.
- generate_signal() numpy.array
-
Generate signal by applying a LOWESS fit.
- Returns:
-
(np.array) Smooth signal.
