Question 1: Short answer
easyAI-checkedTime SeriesOrdinary -fold cross-validation shuffles away the time order, so for a series of 100
observations you use forward-chaining splits instead (scikit-learn's TimeSeriesSplit with
n_splits=4). The data are cut into 5 consecutive blocks of 20; split trains on all blocks
before block and tests on block . How many observations does the third split train
on?
