library(ubair)

Load data for one station and run counterfactual

Investigate effect of 9 Euro ticket for station Köln.

Prerequisites

Installation for user as described in README

Steps

  1. adapt the data_dir (in windows e.g. //de-inf-008/$/Eigene Dateien/ubair-master/data/)
# set data_dir where the data is stored
data_dir <- "../../Daten/user_sample_data/"
# This might take a few seconds for large files
data <- load_uba_data_from_dir(data_dir = data_dir)
  1. Set sample variables.
target <- "NO2"
station <- "DENW006"
station_name <- "Köln"
meteo_variables <- c("TMP", "RFE", "WIG", "WIR", "LDR")

# dates for 9 Euro effect
application_start <- lubridate::ymd("20220301") # = start reference time
date_effect_start <- lubridate::ymd_hm("20220601 00:00")
application_end <- lubridate::ymd("20220831") # = end effect time

buffer <- 0 # number of data points to be ignored before effect

trend <- "linear"
model_type <- "rf"

window_size <- 14 # days of data to calculate the mean in prediction results
  1. create a params.yaml
  2. either
params <- load_params()
# adapt params programatically
params$target <- target
params$meteo_variables <- meteo_variables
  1. Prepare data of station for training.

See function documentation for further details

env_data <- clean_data(data, station = station)
dt_prepared <- prepare_data_for_modelling(env_data, params)
dt_prepared <- dt_prepared[complete.cases(dt_prepared)]
split_data <- split_data_counterfactual(
  dt_prepared,
  application_start = application_start,
  application_end = application_end
)
  1. Run counterfactual scenario (training and prediction)
res <- run_counterfactual(split_data,
  params,
  detrending_function = trend,
  model_type = model_type,
  alpha = 0.9,
  log_transform = FALSE
)
predictions <- res$prediction
  1. Plot counterfactual run and optionally save to data_dir
counterfactual_plot <- plot_counterfactual(predictions, params,
  window_size = window_size,
  date_effect_start,
  buffer = buffer
)
counterfactual_plot
plot of chunk plot_counter_1
plot of chunk plot_counter_1
  1. Evaluate model and effect
round(calc_performance_metrics(predictions,
  date_effect_start,
  buffer = buffer
), 2)

paste("effect size:", estimate_effect_size(predictions,
  date_effect_start,
  buffer = buffer,
  verbose = FALSE
))
