timetk 2.9.0

Anomalize Integration:

anomalize R package is now available in timetk:

1. anomlize(): 1 function that breaks down, identifies, and cleans anomalies
2. plot_anomalies(): Visualize the anomalies and anomaly bands
3. plot_anomalies_decomp(): Visualize the time series decomposition. Make adjustments as needed.
4. plot_anomalies_cleaned(): Visualize the before/after of cleaning anomalies.

Note - anomalize(.method): Only the .method = "stl" is supported at this time. The "twitter" method is also planned.

Other Changes:

• Removed dependency on tidymodels. (#154, @olivroy).

timetk 2.8.4

  • Gets a new argument trelliscope: Used for visualizing many time series.
  • Gets a new argument .facet_strip_remove to remove facet strips since trelliscope is automatically labeled.
  • Gets a new argument .facet_nrow to adjust grid with trelliscope.

• plot_anomaly_diagnostics():
  • Gets a new argument trelliscope: Used for visualizing many time series.
  • Gets a new argument .facet_strip_remove to remove facet strips since trelliscope is automatically labeled.
  • Gets a new argument .facet_nrow to adjust grid with trelliscope.
  • The default argument for .facet_collapse = TRUE was changed to FALSE for better compatibility with Trelliscope JS. This may cause some plots to have multiple groups take up extra space in the strip.

Updates & Bug Fixes

• Recipes steps (e.g. step_timeseries_signature()) use the new recipes::print_step() function. Requires recipes >= 0.2.0. #110
