TimeSeriesDataset.
group_by
Groups values by a frequency for each TimeSeries in a TimeSeriesDataset.
This method is quite similar to resample with the difference that it gives the guaranty that the timestamps are full values. e.g. 2019-01-01 08:00:00.
Resample could make values spaced by 1 min but every x sec e.g. [2019-01-01 08:00:33, 2019-01-01 08:01:33], which isn’t convenient for further index merging operations.
The function has different aggregations methods taken from Pandas groupby aggregations[1]. By default, it’ll take the mean of the defined freq bucket.
