Setting of "cv_max_splits" when using "fit_algorithm": "lasso" about greykite

Hi @dromare, the answer depends on the model you are running. In general, these parameters are independent.

If you are using a single estimator you can set cv_max_splits to 0. If you are comparing multiple estimators/ models you can choose cv_max_splits to be a proper representation of your testing period.

If you need more model tuning guidance feel free to post your model configuration and a snippet of the data you are working with.

Thank you sayanpatra, that is what I wanted to know. So if we have a single estimator which chooses its hyperparameters by K-fold CV on the training set (say, LassoCV or RidgeCV) then if we set cv_max_splits = J, I believe we would end up doing (J times K)-fold CV on the training set.

Yes, you are correct.

Great, thanks ! I will close this issue then.
