You can forecast using predict()
method with above
objects. You should set the step of the forecasting using
n_ahead
argument.
In addition, the result of this forecast will return another class

In time series research, out-of-sample forecasting plays a key role. So, we provide out-of-sample forecasting function based on
forecast_roll(object, n_ahead, y_test)
forecast_expand(object, n_ahead, y_test)
forecast_roll(object, n_ahead, y_test)
conducts h >=
1 step rolling windows forecasting.
It fixes window size and moves the window. The window is the training set. In this package, we set window size = original input data.
Iterating the step
