`LongHorizon`

LongHorizon(source_url='https://nhits-experiments.s3.amazonaws.com/datasets.zip')

This Long-Horizon datasets wrapper class, provides with utility to download and wrangle the following datasets: ETT, ECL, Exchange, Traffic, ILI and Weather.

Each set is normalized with the train data mean and standard deviation.
Datasets are partitioned into train, validation and test splits.
For all datasets: 70%, 10%, and 20% of observations are train, validation, test, except ETT that uses 20% validation.
