[@danrobert7241]

This is awesome! Just one quick note that you've probably caught already but around 22 minute mark you mistake the total for Feb 2013 for January. In fact January 2013's data was dropped after you created the sales_diff column and then dropped null values in the next line. January 2013 would have been null because it was the first row in the data (there would have been no value to call the difference). Anyway, not a big deal just wanted to point that out in case it tripped anyone up. Also, at 22:30 I think you meant to plot monthly_sales['sales_diff'] but you actually just re-plotted monthly sales. Regardless, still a great tutorial for figuring out the correct syntax.

[@BekBrace]

Thank you for the kind words and for pointing that out! You're absolutely right-January 2013's data was dropped after creating the sales_diff column and dropping null values because it was the first row with no previous value to calculate the difference. Also, good catch on the plotting mistake at 22:30; it should have been monthly_sales['sales_diff'] instead of re-plotting monthly_sales. Appreciate the feedback!

This is great! The methodology I was searching for to solve my problem. Thanks a lot!

[@BekBrace]

I'm glad I could help

[@afolaluhelenbosede4028]

Awesome tutorial Bek. Just to point out, the second plot still showed the sales trend and not sales_diff. I could notice cos I was looking out for a change in the increasing trend after you performed the sales difference.

[@BekBrace]

Heyyy ! Oh that must be an error from my side , sorry for that !

[@nwabuezeprecious457]

Hi bek was the ratio of your train set and test set approximately 66:34

[@PaulDenman]

Yup, I changed the code to: # Visualisation plt.figure(figsize=(15,5)) plt.bar(monthly_sales['date'], monthly_sales['sales_diff'], width=12) plt.xlabel("Date") plt.ylabel("Sales") plt.title("Monthly Customer Sales Difference") plt.show() Notice how I changed the plot type to bar also; I prefer that vis :)

[@PaulDenman]

And the Actual vs Predicted to: # Vis the predictions vs the actual sales plt.figure(figsize=(15,5)) # Actual Sales: plt.bar(monthly_sales['date'], monthly_sales['sales'], width=10) # Actual Sales: plt.plot(predict_df['date'], predict_df['Linear Prediction'], color='red') plt.xlabel("Date") plt.ylabel("Sales") plt.title("Predictions vs Actual") plt.show()

Hi @Bek, great video. I see a few other people also asking the same question as mine. How can we use the fit model to predict sales for upcoming days? The sample data is at the day level so let's assume predicting daily sales for the upcoming month. Maybe you can record a new video as that will really add a lot of value. Thanks.

[@BekBrace]

Hey Hey 👋 thank you I might create a follow-up video on this specific point / Thanks for the suggestion

[@santiagomendez1787]

Bek Thank you for the tutorial. i have a one question. why you take 13 rows for the actual sales and not 12?

[@01marcosnunes]

when i going plot the chart, i obteined an error: TypeError: float() argument must be a string or a real number, not 'Period'. Please, you can help me?

[@BekBrace]

Sure. The error message indicates that you are trying to convert a 'Period' object to a float, which is not possible. To resolve this issue, you need to convert the 'Period' object to a numeric value before using it in your sales forecast chart, you can convert the 'Period' object to a numeric value by accessing its 'value' attribute : numeric_value = period.value Make sure to check your code and ensure that you are applying the necessary conversion where needed.

[@sikiruyusuff1246]

how could the sum of sales for 2013-02-01 be 459417?

[@BekBrace]

This total likely represents the aggregated sales across all stores and items for the entire month of January 2013. In data preprocessing, the dates might be shifted or labeled to reflect the period they represent, such as using the first day of the following month to indicate the total sales of the previous month. Always ensure that the date handling aligns with how your data is structured and aggregated.

[@adin6429]

Hello, Bek, thank you for making this video, it helps me alot. But, I want to ask something. When I first create the linear regression, the time when I add x/_train and y_train to model fit. It says, "Found input varibales with inconsistent number of samples." Any clue?

[@senzaura6786]

I notice that when I try to look up in range 1-13, for differences sales each store each month, I got the result is different with you.

[@BekBrace]

This is odd. I have got to find the time to check out the code, but please feel free to ask the friends on the channel, they might be able to answer you quicker

[@senzaura6786]

I try to re-run everything and re-chechk everything the found out something odd, my supervised_data for sales_diff is totally different with you. Mine start with 3130 while you even start from minus value@@BekBrace Any clue?

[@BekBrace]

I’m glad to hear the video has been helpful! Regarding the error you encountered-“Found input variables with inconsistent numbers of samples”-this typically occurs when the X_train and y_train datasets do not have the same number of rows. Here’s how you can address this issue: * Check Lengths: Make sure that both X_train and y_train have the same number of rows. You can check this by printing their shapes: print(X_train.shape) print(y_train.shape) * Synchronize Data: Ensure that during your data preparation phase, when you split the data or create features, you keep the dataset synchronized. For example, if you're creating lagged features or handling missing values, make sure each operation maintains alignment between your features (X_train) and targets (y_train). * Handling Missing Data: If your preprocessing steps (like calculating differences or dropping rows) introduce missing values, ensure that you handle these consistently across both feature and target datasets. For instance, if you drop rows with NaN values in X_train, do the same for y_train: # Assuming you've identified rows with NaNs in X_train X_train = X_train.dropna() y_train = y_train.loc[X_train.index] # Align y_train with X_train *Review Data Preparation: Go back and review the steps where you prepare X_train and y_train. There might be a step where the data gets out of sync, such as when splitting the data or creating features. By ensuring that both X_train and y_train are correctly aligned and contain the same number of samples, you should be able to resolve this error. If the issue persists, feel free to share more details about how you are preparing your datasets, and I’ll help you debug further!

[@yuriy_mikay777]

Nice sample, but if I need to make predictions to 01-2019, 02-2019 … What I need to change?

[@senzaura6786]

Bek, I wanna ask, did you drop the 'date' and 'sales' when you make supervised _data?

[@BekBrace]

Yes, the 'date' and 'sales' columns were not used directly in the supervised data. Instead, the 'sales' column was transformed into 'sales_diff' to capture the monthly sales differences. The 'date' column was not included in the supervised data.

[@ForexPotatoe]

Please how come you are grouping by no longer using the sales store df but just monthly sales that got me confused and i suggest next time you allow the code to run so you can see what you are getting you just run it but dont see your resutlts if its what you want before moving to the next

In splitdata into train and test: Coding of minmaxscaler feature range (-1,1) show error found arry with 0samplee while a minimum of 1 is requires by minmaxscaler how to fix this value error

[@BekBrace]

Hey friend! The error you're encountering suggests that your dataset has some features with zero samples, and the HeMinMaxScaler requires at least one sample for each feature to determine the scaling parameters. To fix this issue, you should ensure that your dataset has at least one sample for each feature before applying the MinMaxScaler.

[@fidelinojuls]

What changes should I imply to predict for the next 3 years?

[@arshadsyed3653]

Sir what are the accuracy percentage of this project ?? Means how the accurate is the prediction ??

[@BekBrace]

Hi there. The accuracy of a sales forecast in this tutorial depends on various factors, including the quality and relevance of the data, the appropriateness of the assumptions made, and the complexity of the sales patterns being modeled. As you saw, I used linear regression which is a commonly used technique for sales forecasting because it provides a straightforward way to model the relationship between independent variables (e.g., time, marketing spend) and sales. However, the accuracy of the predictions produced by a linear regression model can vary. It is important to evaluate the model's performance using appropriate metrics such as mean squared error (MSE), mean absolute error (MAE), or R-squared (coefficient of determination). These metrics quantify the difference between the predicted sales values and the actual sales values. I hope this answers your question, and don't leave the channel, as soon I am going be doing Credit Card Fraud detection analysis tutorial.

[@tf015_nihlatilmaula2]

just wanna add, if you face some error with this code line monthly_sales = store_sales.groupby('date').sum().reset_index() change to this monthly_sales = store_sales.groupby('date').agg({'sales':'sum'}).reset_index()

[@BekBrace]

The error "'DataFrame' object has no attribute 'reset'" likely occurs due to a typo. The correct method is reset_index(). Ensure you use: df.reset_index(drop=True) Double-check your DataFrame's name to avoid referencing errors.

[@fidelinojuls]

Hi! If in my dataset, I've gotten a negative R2 score what does it mean?

[@BekBrace]

Hi Julian :) - well, the R-squared (R2) score is a statistical measure that indicates the proportion of the variance in the dependent variable that can be explained by the independent variables in a regression model. It ranges from 0 to 1, with higher values indicating a better fit of the model to the data. If you obtained a negative R2 score, it means that the regression model you used performed worse than a horizontal line (i.e., a constant model that ignores the independent variables) in explaining the variance in the dependent variable. In other words, the model's predictions are even worse than simply using the mean value of the dependent variable as a constant.

Hey friend. This error occurs when the CSV file you're trying to read contains characters that are not in the UTF-8 character encoding, and I think one way to solve it before reading the file is as follows: import codecs with codecs.open('file.csv', 'rb', encoding='iso-8859-1') as f: # read the file here Try that and let me know

[@aliyilbasi8587]

thanks for your effort ı really appreciated, but ı stuck to figure out logic behind supervised data can someone please explain it?

[@BekBrace]

Thank you :) The supervised data creation is about structuring the dataset for supervised learning. We transform the time series data into a supervised learning problem by creating input-output pairs :) Shift the Data: We use the shift method to create lagged versions of the data. For example, if you want to predict sales based on the previous month, you shift the sales data by one month. Concatenate the Data: Combine these lagged features with the original data, aligning them properly to ensure each row contains the sales data for the current and previous months. Drop NaNs: Any rows that have NaN values (which occur because of shifting) are dropped to maintain a consistent dataset. This results in a dataset where each row can be used as an input-output pair for training a model. The input features are the lagged sales data, and the output is the sales for the current month. Here's a small code snippet to illustrate this: supervised_data = pd.concat([monthly_sales.shift(i) for i in range(1, n+1)], axis=1) supervised_data.dropna(inplace=True) beware my friend, n is the number of lagged months you want to use as input features. it's a long answer, but hopefully this cleared any mysteries for you :)

at 16:31 i m getting an error 'DatetimeProperties' object has no attribute 'to_timestamp' help me please

[@BekBrace]

The error message you are seeing, "'DatetimeProperties' object has no attribute 'to_timestamp'", suggests that you are trying to use the to_timestamp method on a DatetimeProperties object, but this method is not available for that particular object. In Python's standard library, there is no built-in to_timestamp method for the DatetimeProperties class. However, the to_timestamp method is available for datetime objects in Python, which allows converting a datetime object to a Unix timestamp. If you have a DatetimeProperties object and you want to convert it to a timestamp, you can use the timestamp() method available for datetime objects.

We didnt use XG Boost and Random forest as we intented first

True

I follow what you said to cut this specific code and give runall and again i paste and run the code it again show like that only not show the accuracy?What to do now?

[@saloualakhdar6659]

i have the same problem as yours

[@PaulDenman]

Hi @user-ev8cs6yw4r and @saloualakhdar6659 You need to change this line from: lr_r2 = r2_score = (predict_df['Linear Prediction'], monthly_sales['sales'][-12:]) To: lr_r2 = r2_score(predict_df['Linear Prediction'], monthly_sales['sales'][-12:]) The change in the video happens at 52:24 -> 52:25, but it isn't mentioned ;)
