Extensions¶

Extension packages add forecasters, metrics, and integrations to Yohou. This page lists all official and community extensions, and documents the base classes available for building custom components.

Official Extensions¶

Name	Install	Description
yohou-optuna	`uv add yohou-optuna`	Hyperparameter optimization via Optuna. Provides `OptunaSearchCV` as a drop-in replacement for `GridSearchCV` and `RandomizedSearchCV`. (source)
yohou-nixtla	`uv add yohou-nixtla`	Integration with Nixtla forecasting libraries (statsforecast, mlforecast, neuralforecast). Wraps Nixtla models as Yohou forecasters. (source)

Community Extensions¶

No community extensions are listed yet. Community extensions can be submitted via a GitHub issue.

Extension Points¶

All custom components inherit from one of the base classes below. Each base class provides the estimator interface (fit, predict, score, etc.) and requires subclasses to implement specific abstract methods.

For step-by-step implementation guides, see Create a Point Forecaster, Create an Interval Forecaster, Create a Transformer, and Create a Custom Scorer. For an explanation of how tags, MRO merging, and dynamic configuration work, see Extending Yohou.

Forecasters¶

Base Class	Import	Abstract Methods
`BasePointForecaster`	`yohou.point`	`fit()`, `_predict_one()`
`BaseIntervalForecaster`	`yohou.interval`	`fit()`, `_predict_interval_one()`
`BaseClassProbaForecaster`	`yohou.class_proba`	`fit()`, `_predict_class_proba_one()`

Scorers¶

Base Class	Import	Abstract Methods
`BasePointScorer`	`yohou.metrics`	`score()`, `_compute_raw_errors()`
`BaseIntervalScorer`	`yohou.metrics`	`score()`, `_compute_raw_scores()`
`BaseClassProbaScorer`	`yohou.metrics`	`score()`, `_compute_raw_errors()`

Transformers¶

Base Class	Import	Abstract Methods
`BaseTransformer`	`yohou.base`	`_transform()`, `get_feature_names_out()`

Optional overrides: _fit() (default no-op), _inverse_transform() (required only for invertible transformers).

Splitters¶

Base Class	Import	Abstract Methods
`BaseSplitter`	`yohou.model_selection`	`split()`, `_iter_test_indices()`, `get_n_splits()`

Search Strategies¶

Base Class	Import	Abstract Methods
`BaseSearchCV`	`yohou.model_selection.search`	`_run_search()`

Built-in implementations: GridSearchCV, RandomizedSearchCV. Extend BaseSearchCV only for custom search strategies (e.g., Bayesian optimization).
