featuretools.primitives.TimeSinceLastMax#

class featuretools.primitives.TimeSinceLastMax[source]#

Calculates the time since the maximum value occurred.

Description:

Given a list of numbers, and a corresponding index of datetimes, find the time of the maximum value, and return the time elapsed since it occured. This calculation is done using an instance id’s cutoff time.

If multiple values equal the maximum, use the first occuring maximum.

Examples

>>> from datetime import datetime
>>> time_since_last_max = TimeSinceLastMax()
>>> cutoff_time = datetime(2010, 1, 1, 12, 0, 0)
>>> times = [datetime(2010, 1, 1, 11, 45, 0),
...          datetime(2010, 1, 1, 11, 55, 15),
...          datetime(2010, 1, 1, 11, 57, 30)]
>>> time_since_last_max(times, [1, 3, 2], time=cutoff_time)
