`tsbootstrap` makes the sampling design explicit through typed method specifications,
assumption metadata, and replayable run metadata. Its optional compiled reducers
calculate statistics while generating resamples, and its panel API supports
unequal-length series.

| Measured proof | Result | Scope and receipt |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Four shared methods against `arch.apply` | Faster in all 16 measured cells; **4.7x to 33x** on the longer series | IID, moving, circular, stationary; mean statistic; n=2,000, B=999 or 10,000; optional compiled reducer on eight cores; [settled-min receipt](benchmarks/results/vs_arch_ccx33_2026-07-11_settled.json) and [methodology](benchmarks/README.md). |
| Ten thousand series, one fused pass | **220x faster** than a per-series reduce loop | Time, B=1,000, n=200, MovingBlock(20) mean; [panel benchmark](benchmarks/README.md#panel-scale-reduce). |
| Same panel, without the resampled-path tensor | **141x less peak memory** than materialize-then-reduce | Memory, same workload; materialization is a different baseline from the time comparison; [panel benchmark](benchmarks/README.md#panel-scale-reduce). |

Read the engineering behind these results in [Count the bytes, not the FLOPs](https://www.thepragmaticquant.com/why-we-stopped-materializing-arrays/)
and [Ten thousand series, one pass](https://www.thepragmaticquant.com/ten-thousand-series-one-pass/).

| Capability | In `tsbootstrap` | Comparison boundary |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Shared observation bootstrap methods | IID, moving block, circular block, stationary block | All four are also in [`arch.bootstrap`](https://arch.readthedocs.io/en/latest/bootstrap/bootstrap.html) and are covered by the measured comparison. |
| Additional resampling | Non-overlapping and tapered blocks; recursive AR, ARIMA, VAR and sieve bootstraps; wild and block-wild innovations | Outside the four-method head-to-head benchmark. |
| Uncertainty workflows | Bootstrap confidence intervals, AR forecast bands, EnbPI and adaptive conformal calibration | These workflows are not part of the speed comparison. |
| Large panels and tooling | Ragged-panel reducers, method diagnostics and metadata, optional read-only MCP tools | The panel benchmark compares three `tsbootstrap` workflows, not `arch`. |

The speed numbers describe the **compiled named-statistic reduce path**; the
default NumPy backend, arbitrary Python statistics, materialized samples, and
single-thread execution have distinct performance profiles. See the
[full benchmark grid](benchmarks/README.md) for those paths. The `arch` bootstrap
module also offers independent-samples bootstrapping, and the broader `arch`
package includes econometric tools. Neither is covered by this four-method
comparison.

## 🚀 Getting Started

### 🎮 Using tsbootstrap

`tsbootstrap` exposes one typed entry point, `bootstrap`, configured with a method
specification. The same call works for every method.

```python
import numpy as np
from tsbootstrap import bootstrap, MovingBlock

rng = np.random.default_rng(0)
innovations = rng.standard_normal(200)
x = np.empty_like(innovations)
x[0] = innovations[0]
for t in range(1, len(x)):
    x[t] = 0.6 * x[t - 1] + innovations[t]

result = bootstrap(x, method=MovingBlock(block_length="auto"), n_bootstraps=999, random_state=0)

samples = result.values()  # (n_bootstraps, n) resampled series
oob = result.get_oob_mask()  # (n_bootstraps, n) out-of-bag mask
```

Choose a method spec for the structure you need (block lengths default to the
automatic Politis-White selection):

```python
from tsbootstrap import StationaryBlock, ResidualBootstrap, SieveAR, AR, ARIMA, diagnose

bootstrap(x, method=StationaryBlock(avg_block_length="auto"))

# recursive model-based bootstraps; only ARIMA needs the models extra
bootstrap(x, method=ResidualBootstrap(model=AR(order=2)))
bootstrap(x, method=ResidualBootstrap(model=ARIMA(order=(1, 1, 1))))
bootstrap(x, method=SieveAR())

# not sure which fits? ask:
print(diagnose(x).recommended_methods)
```

Inputs can be NumPy arrays, lists, or pandas / Polars DataFrames and Series. The
result is a `BootstrapResult` carrying the samples, provenance metadata, and
out-of-bag / in-bag primitives. For the sktime ecosystem, the same methods are
also available as estimator classes (`MovingBlockBootstrap`, `ARResidualBootstrap`,
`SieveBootstrap`, and the rest) under `tsbootstrap.adapters`.

### Uncertainty quantification

The `uq` layer turns resampled series into prediction intervals. `forecast_intervals`
gives forward forecast bands for an AR model; `EnbPIEnsemble` produces out-of-bag
prediction intervals for an sklearn-style regressor, with calibrators for stationary,
volatility-clustered, and drifting data (static, sliding window, and the adaptive ACI,
AgACI, and NexCP schemes); and `bootstrap_reduce` streams a per-replicate statistic so
calibration scales to large replicate counts without holding every path in memory.

```python
from tsbootstrap import AR, forecast_intervals

lower, upper, median = forecast_intervals(x, model=AR(order=2), horizon=12, alpha=0.1)
```

For a confidence interval on a statistic of one series, `conf_int` runs the bootstrap
and reads the interval in one call:

```python
from tsbootstrap import IID, conf_int

lower, upper, point = conf_int(x, "mean", method=IID(), kind="bca", alpha=0.1)
```

The conformal pieces (`EnbPIEnsemble` and the calibrators) need the `uq` extra
(scikit-learn). The interactive
[tutorial gallery](https://tsbootstrap.readthedocs.io/en/latest/tutorials/index.html)
works through every method on real and synthetic data, including a "which bootstrap
should I use?" decision guide.

### MCP server

`tsbootstrap` ships a read-only [Model Context Protocol](https://modelcontextprotocol.io)
server so an MCP client (an LLM agent, an IDE) can diagnose a short series and compute a
bootstrap confidence interval without writing any Python. Run it with no install step:

```sh
uvx --from "tsbootstrap[mcp]" tsbootstrap-mcp
```

It speaks the stdio transport and exposes exactly two read-only tools:

- `diagnose_series`: serial-dependence and stationarity diagnostics, a recommended
  Politis-White block length, and the bootstrap methods the server supports for the series.
- `bootstrap_confidence_interval`: a percentile confidence interval for the mean, median,
  std, or variance, using an i.i.d. or block bootstrap.

Both tools accept at most 500 observations and run at most 500 replicates. For larger
series, model-based methods, or the uncertainty layer, use the library directly in a
local script.

### 📦 Installation

Requires Python 3.10 or higher.

```sh
# with uv (recommended):
uv add tsbootstrap                   # core: i.i.d. and block methods
uv add "tsbootstrap[models]"         # adds statsmodels for ARIMA

# with pip:
pip install tsbootstrap
pip install "tsbootstrap[models]"
```

AR, VAR, and sieve fitting use the core NumPy implementation. ARIMA imports
statsmodels lazily and requires the `models` extra.

## ⚡ Performance

![tsbootstrap: speedup over arch and peak-memory reduction](benchmarks/launch_speed_memory.png)

*Left: speedup of the compiled reduce path over the arch library on the four overlapping methods. Right: peak memory before and after on the two headline reduce workloads (baseline = materialize every path, then reduce). The figure and the table below are generated from the committed benchmark data in [benchmarks/results/](benchmarks/results/); regenerate with `python benchmarks/plot_launch.py`.*

tsbootstrap ships an optional compiled backend (`backend="compiled"`, via the
`[accel]` extra). On the measured mean-reduction workload it is faster than
[`arch.apply`](https://github.com/bashtage/arch) for each of the four shared
resampling methods. The table below is the speedup of
the streaming reduce path over `arch.apply` on an 8-core CPU (higher is better),
read from [`benchmarks/results/vs_arch_ccx33_2026-07-11_settled.json`](benchmarks/results/vs_arch_ccx33_2026-07-11_settled.json)
(the settled-min statistic; methodology in [benchmarks/README.md](benchmarks/README.md)).

| Method | n=200, B=999 | n=200, B=10000 | n=2000, B=999 | n=2000, B=10000 |
|-----------------|--------------|----------------|---------------|-----------------|
| IID | 15x | 19x | 4.7x | 8.6x |
| MovingBlock | 38x | 61x | 9.8x | 26x |
| CircularBlock | 41x | 66x | 13x | 33x |
| StationaryBlock | 19x | 24x | 6.8x | 12x |

Read these as sustained gains of roughly 4.7x to 33x on the larger n=2000
workloads; the very large small-n multiples come from `arch`'s per-replicate
Python callback in `bs.apply`, whose overhead dominates its runtime when each
resample is cheap, so they measure that overhead as much as the compiled kernel.

The compiled reduce fuses index build, gather, and reduction into one pass, so
peak memory stays flat in the number of replicates: at n=2000 the streaming
reduce holds about 20 MB at B=50000 where materializing every replicate takes
about 1.94 GB (roughly 96x lighter), from
[`benchmarks/results/membench_2026-07-04.json`](benchmarks/results/membench_2026-07-04.json).
The multivariate and ragged-panel reduce
paths have no equivalent in `arch`. The panel reduce
(`bootstrap_reduce_panel`) returns the full per-series bootstrap distribution
of the statistic (`n_bootstraps x num_series`), so quantile and tail workflows
on an estimator are served directly with no replicate tensor. Use the
materializing path only when the workflow consumes the resampled paths
themselves. Full methodology,
single-thread behavior, and the reproduction script are in
[benchmarks/README.md](benchmarks/README.md).

```sh
# install the compiled backend
uv add "tsbootstrap[accel]"
# or
pip install "tsbootstrap[accel]"
```

## 🗺 Roadmap

The full, living roadmap is [issue #181](https://github.com/astrogilda/tsbootstrap/issues/181). Highlights:

Near term:
- Out-of-sample forecast intervals for ARIMA and VAR (currently AR-only).

Candidate methods (good first issues):
- Generalized block ([#104](https://github.com/astrogilda/tsbootstrap/issues/104)), local block ([#105](https://github.com/astrogilda/tsbootstrap/issues/105)), and frequency-domain ([#107](https://github.com/astrogilda/tsbootstrap/issues/107)) bootstraps.
- A GARCH / volatility residual bootstrap, and the smooth-kernel dependent-wild bootstrap.

Distributed execution (`Dask` / `Spark` / `Ray`), an async layer, and a string-keyed
factory were considered and deliberately left out. The library is a CPU-bound,
single-process toolkit.

## 🤝 Contributing

See our [good first issues ](https://github.com/astrogilda/tsbootstrap/issues?q=is%3Aissue+is%3Aopen+label%3A%22good+first+issue%22)
for getting started.

### Developer setup

1. Fork the tsbootstrap repository

2. Clone the fork to local:
```sh
git clone https://github.com/astrogilda/tsbootstrap
```

3. In the local repository root, sync the locked development environment with uv:
```sh
uv sync --extra dev
```

4. uv creates an isolated virtual environment from `uv.lock` and editable-installs the
package, so changes to the package are reflected in your environment automatically. Run
tools through the environment with `uv run` (for example `uv run pytest`).

5. Install the pre-commit hooks:
```sh
uv run pre-commit install
```

The hooks run ruff, formatting, and the other code-quality checks on each commit.

### Verifying the Installation

Verify the installation:
```
python -c "import tsbootstrap; print(tsbootstrap.__version__)"
```

This prints the installed version.

### Contribution workflow

1. Create a new branch with a descriptive name (e.g., `new-feature-branch` or `bugfix-issue-123`).
```sh
git checkout -b new-feature-branch
```
2. Make changes to the project's codebase.
3. Commit your changes to your local branch with a clear commit message that explains the changes you've made.
```sh
git commit -m 'Implemented new feature.'
```
4. Push your changes to your forked repository on GitHub using the following command
```sh
git push origin new-feature-branch
```
5. Create a new pull request to the original project repository. In the pull request, describe the changes you've made and why they're necessary.

### 🧪 Running Tests

To run all tests, in your developer environment, run:

```sh
uv run pytest tests/
```

That runs in a single process. Add the pytest-xdist flags CI uses to run the
suite in parallel, which is several times faster on a multi-core machine:

```sh
uv run pytest tests/ -n auto --dist loadscope --max-worker-restart 3
```

The sktime adapter classes can be validated with sktime's estimator checks:

```python
from sktime.utils import check_estimator
from tsbootstrap.adapters import MovingBlockBootstrap

check_estimator(MovingBlockBootstrap)
```

## 📍 Time Series Bootstrapping
`tsbootstrap` implements bootstrap methods for univariate and multivariate time
series. Block methods resample nearby observations together; model-based
methods simulate new paths from fitted dynamics.

### Overview
An i.i.d. bootstrap breaks serial dependence by resampling individual
observations. Block and model-based methods retain aspects of dependence under
their stated assumptions. Interval coverage still depends on the data regime,
the statistic, and the method choice; see the [uncertainty guide](https://tsbootstrap.readthedocs.io/en/latest/uq_guide.html).

### Bootstrapping methodology
`tsbootstrap` resamples either the observations directly (i.i.d. and block methods) or
the innovations of a fitted model (residual and sieve methods), respecting the
chronological order and dependence structure of the data.

### Block bootstrap
Block methods resample blocks of consecutive observations to preserve short-range
dependence. The block length defaults to the automatic Politis-White (2004) selection.

- **Moving block** (`MovingBlock`): overlapping fixed-length blocks (Kunsch 1989).
- **Circular block** (`CircularBlock`): blocks wrap around the series end (Politis-Romano 1992).
- **Stationary block** (`StationaryBlock`): geometric block lengths with independent uniform
  restart points (Politis-Romano 1994).
- **Non-overlapping block** (`NonOverlappingBlock`): disjoint blocks (Carlstein 1986).
- **Tapered block** (`TaperedBlock(window=...)`): blocks weighted by an energy-normalized
  window (Bartlett, Blackman, Hamming, Hann, or Tukey; Paparoditis-Politis 2001).

### Residual bootstrap
For dependent data with a good model fit, `ResidualBootstrap(model=...)` regenerates the
series **recursively** from the fitted dynamics and resampled, centered innovations (not
`fitted + residuals`). Supported models: `AR`, `ARIMA`, and `VAR` (multivariate). A
non-stationary fit is refused (or skipped, per `stability_policy`) rather than producing
explosive paths.

### Sieve bootstrap
`SieveAR` selects an autoregressive order on the original series, then runs the AR recursion;
suited to data with autoregressive structure.

### Innovation resamplers
The `innovation` argument on `ResidualBootstrap` and `SieveAR` controls how the centered
residuals are resampled. It defaults to `IID` (uniform resampling); two wild resamplers relax
the exchangeability that assumes.

- **Wild** (`Wild(distribution=...)`): multiplies each residual in place by a mean-zero,
  unit-variance draw (`e*_t = v_t * e_hat_t`), keeping its time position and magnitude, so it
  stays valid under conditional heteroskedasticity (Wu 1986; Liu 1988; Rademacher default per
  Davidson-Flachaire 2008).
- **Block-wild** (`BlockWild(block_length=...)`): holds one multiplier constant across each
  block of residuals, so serial dependence left by a misspecified mean survives the resampling
  (piecewise-constant dependent wild bootstrap, Shao 2010).

Both require the host model's `burn_in=0` and `initial="fixed"` defaults so the multipliers
align one-to-one with the residuals.

### Deferred to a later release
Markov resampling, the distribution bootstrap, GARCH/volatility models, and
frequency-domain / seasonal block methods are planned for a future version. The
statistic-preserving method has been removed.
