Most models automatically included in finnts, including all multivariate models, have various hyperparameters with values that need to be chosen before a model is trained. Finn solves this by leveraging the tune package within the tidymodels ecosystem.
When prep_models() is ran, hyperparameters and back test
splits are calculated and written to disk. You can get the results by
calling get_prepped_models().

When tuning hyperparameters, Finn uses the “Validation” train/test splits, with the final parameters chosen using RMSE. For some models like ARIMA that don’t follow a traditional hyperparameter tuning process, the model is fit from scratch across all train/test splits. After hyperparameters are chosen, the model is refit across the “Back_Test” and “Future_Forecast” splits. The “Back_Test” splits are the true testing data that will be used when selecting the final “Best-Model”. “Ensemble” splits are also created as ensemble training data if ensemble models are chosen to run. Ensemble models follow a similar tuning process.
