Series padding in context length

[imontoyah]

Hello! Congrats on the great work.

I’ve been working with your model and analyzing the effect of modifying the context length. However, after looking at the code, a few things are still unclear to me. I think is easier to use an example to clarify: suppose I have a series with 25 points and a context length of 32.

• How is padding applied to the series?
• Is the full lags sequence [0, 7, 8, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 34, 35, 36, 46, 47, 48, 50, 51, 52, 55, 57, 58, 59, 60, 61, 70, 71, 72, 83, 94, 95, 96, 102, 103, 104, 117, 118, 119, 120, 121, 142, 143, 144, 154, 155, 156, 166, 167, 168, 177, 178, 179, 180, 181, 334, 335, 336, 362, 363, 364, 502, 503, 504, 670, 671, 672, 718, 719, 720, 726, 727, 728, 1090, 1091, 1092] used in this case? Or it will only use the first 32 lags since the context length is 32?
