codez

codez fits a seq2seq encoder-decoder model for time-feature forecasting. Version 2.0 moves the neural backend from TensorFlow/Keras to torch, keeps the original codez() entry point, and adds a more R-native workflow through fit_codez().

Install backend

torch is used at fit time:

install.packages("torch")
torch::install_torch()

Basic use

library(codez)

model <- fit_codez(
  amzn_aapl_fb[, -1],
  dates = as.Date(amzn_aapl_fb$Date),
  seq_len = 20,
  n_samp = 3,
  n_windows = 5,
  control = codez_control(epochs = 50, batch_size = 32, n_sim = 1000)
)

forecast <- predict(model)
summary(model)
plot(model)

What changed in 2.0

• Torch backend for the autoencoder and latent forward network.
• fit_codez() returns a codez_model with tidy forecasts, baseline backtests, and S3 methods.
• Convenience dependencies were replaced with local support functions; model fitting now only needs torch at runtime.
• codez() still returns the legacy list shape: history, best_model, and time_log.
• Mixed numeric/categorical data is rejected explicitly. Pass all numeric or all factor/character columns.
• Numeric fits include rolling naive and average baseline comparisons.

Output shape

predict(model) returns one row per feature and horizon, with forecast summary columns such as min, interval quantiles, 50%, mean, sd, and pred_scores.

The legacy result is still available at:

model$result
