[R] Reformatting output of Forecasts generated by mlp model

Dear friends,

Hope you are doing great. I am using the multiple layer perceptron model
(provided in R?s mlp() function for time series forecasting, but I don?t
know how to reformat the output forecasts generated.

mydata <- dput(datframe$Transits)
> dput(datframe$Transits)c(77L, 75L, 85L, 74L, 73L, 96L, 82L, 90L, 91L, 81L, 81L, 77L,

217L, 197L, 210L, 211L, 229L, 232L, 227L, 233L, 217L)

TransitsDat <- ts(mydata, start=(1985,10), end=c(2018,9), frequency=12)

Model <- mlp(TransitsDat)

ModelForecasts <- forecast(Model, h=10)

And the output I get is this:

           Jan         Feb         Mar         Apr         May
Jun         Jul Aug Sep         Oct         Nov         Dec
2018
224.9970134 221.7932717 220.2698789
2019 223.8440115 219.3309631 221.5382052 221.5720276 222.0963057
223.8392450 224.0982199

But I would like to have the results in tabular form, where the first
column is the date with format mmm-yyyy (for example jan-2019) and the
second row are the actual forecasts.

Like this
Date           TransitForecast
Jan-2019     230
Feb-2019    217
etc.

Any guidance will be greatly appreciated,

Best regards,

Paul

[R] Reformatting output of Forecasts generated by mlp model

The printed output you have shown is meaningless (and maybe mangled, since
you posted in HTML): it is the result of a call to a print method for the
forecast object. You need to examine that object (e.g. via str()) and/or
the print method to see how to extract the data you want in whatever form
you want them. If these remarks don't make sense to you, I suggest you
spend some time with an R tutorial or two to learn about (S3, I assume)
objects and methods and how R uses these for printing output. The important
point is: what you see in printed output may not at "look like" the
structure of the object from which the output is obtained.

You have also failed to tell us what package(s) you are using, which is
part of the requested minimal info. There appear to be at least two that
seem relevant.

Cheers,
Bert
