xyplot.forecast: Plot Forecasts with Trellis Graphics

Description

Plot forecasts from forecast::forecast(). It is built mostly to resemble the forecast::autoplot.forecast() and forecast::plot.forecast() functions, but in addition tries to plot the predictions on the original scale.

Usage

# S3 method for forecast
xyplot(x, data = NULL, ci = TRUE, ci_levels = x$level,
  ci_key = ci, ci_pal = hcl(0, 0, 45:100),
  ci_alpha = trellis.par.get("regions")$alpha, ...)

Value

An object of class "trellis". The

update method can be used to update components of the object and the

print method (usually called by default) will plot it on an appropriate plotting device.

Arguments

x

An object of class forecast.

data

Data of observations left out of the model fit, usually "future" observations.

ci

Plot confidence intervals for the predictions.

ci_levels

The prediction levels to plot as a subset of those forecasted in x.

ci_key

Set to TRUE to draw a key automatically or provide a list (if length(ci_levels) > 5 should work with lattice::draw.colorkey() and otherwise with lattice::draw.key())

ci_pal

Color palette for the confidence bands.

ci_alpha

Fill alpha for the confidence interval.

...

Arguments passed on to lattice::panel.xyplot().

Details

This function requires the zoo package.

Examples

if (require(forecast)) {
  train <- window(USAccDeaths, c(1973, 1), c(1977, 12))
  test <- window(USAccDeaths, c(1978, 1), c(1978, 12))
  fit <- arima(train, order = c(0, 1, 1),
               seasonal = list(order = c(0, 1, 1)))
  fcast1 <- forecast(fit, 12)
  xyplot(fcast1, test, grid = TRUE, auto.key = list(corner = c(0, 0.99)),
         ci_key = list(title = "PI Level"))

  # A fan plot
  fcast2 <- forecast(fit, 12, level = seq(0, 95, 10))
  xyplot(fcast2, test, ci_pal = heat.colors(100))
