MakeBlock
Description : Creates a data block of time-delay embedding from each of the columnNames in the dataFrame.
Python :
MakeBlock(dataFrame, E=0, tau=-1, columnNames=[], deletePartial=False)
R :
MakeBlock(dataFrame, E = 0, tau = -1, columns = c(), deletePartial = FALSE)
| Parameter | Type | Default | Purpose |
|---|---|---|---|
| dataFrame | pyEDM: pandas DataFrame rEDM: data.frame |
None | Input DataFrame |
| E | int | 0 | Data dimension |
| tau | int | -1 | Embedding shift. Negative: lag, positive: future |
| columnNames | [] | "" | List of column names |
| deletePartial | bool | False | Remove rows with NaNs from embedding |
Notes :
Refer to the parameters table for general parameter definitions.
The columnNames is a list of column names.
The time column is not included in the returned DataFrame.
The MakeBlock function is a low level function that does not perform
error checking. The Embed function provides error checking and file-based
input.
Returns : DataFrame with embedded columns.
