I am trying to run Dickey-Fuller test in statsmodels in Python but getting error

问题

I am trying to run Dickey-Fuller test in statsmodels in Python but getting error P Running from python 2.7 & Pandas version 0.19.2. Dataset is from Github and imported the same

enter code here

 from statsmodels.tsa.stattools import adfuller
    def test_stationarity(timeseries):

    print 'Results of Dickey-Fuller Test:'
        dftest = ts.adfuller(timeseries, autolag='AIC' )
        dfoutput = pd.Series(dftest[0:4], index=['Test Statistic','p-value','#Lags Used','Number of Observations Used'])
        for key,value in dftest[4].items():
            dfoutput['Critical Value (%s)'%key] = value
        print dfoutput


    test_stationarity(tr)

Gives me following error :

回答1:

tr must be a 1d array-like, as you can see here. I don't know what is tr in your case. Assuming that you defined tr as the dataframe that contains the time serie's data, you should do something like this:

tr = tr.iloc[:,0].values

Then adfuller will be able to read the data.

回答2:

just change the line as:

dftest = adfuller(timeseries.iloc[:,0].values, autolag='AIC' )

It will work. adfuller requires a 1D array list. In your case you have a dataframe. Therefore mention the column or edit the line as mentioned above.

回答3:

I am assuming since you are using the Dickey-Fuller test .you want to maintain the timeseries i.e date time column as index.So in order to do that.

tr=tr.set_index('Month') #I am assuming here the time series column name is Month ts = tr['othercoulumnname'] #Just use the other column name here it might be count or anything

I hope this helps.
