Average forecasts of demand by path, class, and days to departure.

This query requires that the simulation was run while recording path-class details (i.e. with the pathclass flag set on Config.db.write_items).

Parameters:

scenario : str

burn_samples : int, default 100

The forecasts will be analyzed ignoring this many samples from the beginning of each trial.

Returns:

pandas.DataFrame – The resulting dataframe is indexed by path_id, booking_class and days_prior, and has these columns:

  • forecast_mean: Average forecast mean (mu).

  • forecast_stdev: Average forecast standard deviation (sigma).

  • forecast_closed_in_tf: Average fraction of time the timeframe was

    closed in the data used to make a forecast.
