Hi,

In the fpp2 book on the chapter Forecasting hierarchical or grouped time series, it is possible to easily switch between different methods (top-down, middle-out, bottom-up) when using the hts approach.

prison.gts <- gts(prison/1e3, characters = c(3,1,9),
  gnames = c("State", "Gender", "Legal",
             "State*Gender", "State*Legal",
             "Gender*Legal"))
forecast(prison.gts, method="bu", fmethod="arima")

can you provide an example of how this can be done using scikit-hts package

As i understood, you can simply change the revision_method by any of those,

By the moment I'm not being able to use BU (Some key error), but all of the others works well at least with auto arima.

Hope this help
