📝 Summary

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features
    • Added an optional cross-learning mode for training and inference. Batched inputs are supported, with outputs retaining the expected batch shape.
  • Tests
    • Added coverage for cross-learning enabled and disabled, including batched prediction outputs and training.

Chronos2 adds a cross_learning option to forward and fit. When enabled, it sets estimator_batch_size to 1 and flattens context and query batch dimensions for inference, then restores the output shape. Tests cover both option values with batched inputs.

Changes: Chronos2 cross-learning

Layer / File(s) Summary
Expose and delegate the cross-learning option
sdm/models/chronos2/model.py
The documentation and forward and fit methods add cross_learning. When enabled, both methods set estimator_batch_size to 1 before passing the option to the superclass.
Reshape inference tensors and verify behavior
sdm/models/chronos2/model.py, test/models/chronos2/test_model.py
_forward flattens context and query batch dimensions for inference when cross-learning is enabled, then restores the output batch shape. Tests run forward and fit with both option values and batched inputs.

The cross-learning option works as implemented, but its documentation does not say callers must pass num_estimators=1 to batch series together. The test also would not catch a regression where the flag is ignored. Both are small follow-ups and neither blocks merging.

Full details: Title check

Explanation

The title names the primary change: enabling cross-learning in the Chronos2 model. The raw summary confirms that forward and fit gained a cross_learning flag, and that batch flattening and output reshaping were added for it. The title is short and specific, so it passes.

Full details: Description check

Explanation

The author left no description. The check is lenient and the changeset is not off-topic. The PR summary and file summaries describe the cross_learning option, batch handling, and updated tests, so the check passes on the changeset alone.

Full details: Docstring Coverage

Explanation

Docstring coverage is 66.67% which is insufficient. The required threshold is 80.00%. Docstring coverage is scoped to functions touched by this diff with cyclomatic complexity of at least 2. Documentation-only edits and deletions within surviving functions are included; unchanged diff context and fully deleted functions are excluded. Analyzed 3 functions across 2 files.

Resolution

Write docstrings for the functions missing them to satisfy the coverage threshold.

Document the batch dimension required for cross-learning.

With num_estimators=None, a 3-D input uses its leading dimension as the estimator dimension. Chronos2 runs these estimators separately, so cross_learning=True does not share information across that dimension. Document that callers must pass num_estimators=1 to use the leading dimension as the batch dimension.

Suggested documentation update
