Return forecasts for easy processing with `scoringutils`
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe: Forecast evaluation is an important part of broader workflows around forecasting. scoringutils is an R package for evaluating forecasts. It would be nice to integrate tightly with it by returning forecasts and data in a format that allows for easy processing there.
Describe the solution you'd like:
Functions like estimate_infections
, simulate_infections
, forecast_infections
to return forecast in data that allows for calling of scoringutils::as_forecast()
without any further processing - either directly or (perhaps more likely) through a function get_forecast()
or a custom as.forecast method?
or a custom as.forecast method?
I'm in favour of this since it'll live here instead of scoringutils
(even though we have control over this since they're both developed by us).
Conditional on #451.
