I have a time series of (x,y) values.

When plotted as a scattergram with a line showing the points in sequence it is 
possible to see that the data points tend to fall along a rough line (with 
possible retracements) for some time before settling into a different line.  
This happens multiple times in a data set.

If I visually estimate the start and end date of each set of contiguous points 
that form a rough line I can obviously perform a linear regression on those 
points but for a large number of points I would like to automatically partition 
the sequence into multiple regression lines meeting some sort of maximum error 
criterion and perform a regression on each partition.

Is there support for this sort of thing in scikit-learn?  I’ve searched for 
this info but I’m not very familiar with this area yet and I’m probably 
ignorant of the most relevant search terms.

Cheers,
Dieter.
