pmdarima.datasets.load_lynx

pmdarima.datasets.load_lynx(as_series=False)

Annual numbers of lynx trappings for 1821–1934 in Canada.

This time-series records the number of skins of predators (lynx) that were collected over several years by the Hudson’s Bay Company. The dataset was taken from Brockwell & Davis (1991) and appears to be the series considered by Campbell & Walker (1977).

Parameters:

as_series : bool, optional (default=False)

Whether to return a Pandas series. If True, the index will be set to the observed years. If False, will return a 1d numpy array.

Returns:

lynx : array-like, shape=(n_samples,)

The lynx dataset. There are 114 observations.
