Yes. >That's not prediction because what we want to predict is the input of the >prediction. That's a little bit counter-intuitive, but more data for prediction makes prediction more precise. (it's not a truth in 100% of cases even for HW, though). As I said before Graphite doesn't support future datapoints, so, HW is only useful to have some anomaly detection, i.e. predict if your current (or almost current) data is OK or now. And in this case including current data in training set has a perfect sense to me. But I'm not a statistician and my knowledge of HW is quite scarce. If you sure if shifting of end of training set could be useful you can implement shifting upper bound of bootstrap interval, similar to my patch - https://github.com/graphite-project/graphite-web/pull/1977 - e.g. introducing some new parameter to trigger new behavior. -- You received this question notification because your team graphite-dev is an answer contact for Graphite. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~graphite-dev Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~graphite-dev More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
