Default configs of AutoNHITS seems invalid

[ArvidWeyrauch]

AutoNHITS.default_config is not a valid config if provided as argument since it uses 'input_size_multiplier', which is only translated to the necessary 'input_size' if config==None. This makes configs that are only slight modifications of the default unnecessarily cumbersome

After a rough scan of the code this seems to apply for most or all AutoModels

Version 1.5.0

Hi @ArvidWeyrauch, the idea of our default config was precisely to only use it if config==None. This has the negative effect of requiring modifications (like removing input_size_multiplier) if you want to build on top of it.

We are working on improving this.

Hi @cchallu, in that case I would suggest adapting section 3 of this page of the documentation, as it implies to me, both in the text and the comment in the code, that NHITS.default_config is a valid config. Also, consider making it protected (i.e. NHITS._defaults_config) to communicate it is not supposed to be accessed except by the class

Thanks for the suggestion, we will improve the documentation.
