Make the output type ID values of sample forecasts distinct for different models

Usage

make_sample_indices_unique(model_out_tbl)

Arguments

model_out_tbl

an object of class model_out_tbl with component model outputs (e.g., predictions).

Value

a model_out_tbl object with unique output type ID values for different models but otherwise identical to the input model_out_tbl.

Details

The new output_type_id column values will follow one of two patterns, depending on whether the column is detected to be numeric:

  1. If the output type ID is not numeric (may be a character): A concatenation of the prediction's model ID and original output type ID

  2. If the output type ID is numeric: A numeric representation of the above pattern rendered as a factor.
