forecast.HoltWinters {forecast} | R Documentation |
Returns forecasts and other information for univariate Holt-Winters time series models.
## S3 method for class 'HoltWinters' forecast(object, h=ifelse(frequency(object$x)>1,2*frequency(object$x),10), level=c(80,95),fan=FALSE,lambda=NULL,...)
object |
An object of class " |
h |
Number of periods for forecasting |
level |
Confidence level for prediction intervals. |
fan |
If TRUE, level is set to seq(50,99,by=1). This is suitable for fan plots. |
lambda |
Box-Cox transformation parameter. Ignored if NULL. Otherwise, forecasts back-transformed via an inverse Box-Cox transformation. |
... |
Other arguments. |
This function calls predict.HoltWinters
and constructs an object of class "forecast
" from the results.
It is included for completeness, but the ets
is recommended for use instead of HoltWinters
.
An object of class "forecast
".
The function summary
is used to obtain and print a summary of the
results, while the function plot
produces a plot of the forecasts and prediction intervals.
The generic accessor functions fitted.values
and residuals
extract useful features of
the value returned by forecast.HoltWinters
.
An object of class "forecast"
is a list containing at least the following elements:
model |
A list containing information about the fitted model |
method |
The name of the forecasting method as a character string |
mean |
Point forecasts as a time series |
lower |
Lower limits for prediction intervals |
upper |
Upper limits for prediction intervals |
level |
The confidence values associated with the prediction intervals |
x |
The original time series (either |
residuals |
Residuals from the fitted model. That is x minus fitted values. |
fitted |
Fitted values (one-step forecasts) |
