 # tsam - Time Series Aggregation Module
 tsam is a python package which uses different machine learning algorithms for the aggregation of time series. The data aggregation can be performed in two freely combinable dimensions: By representing the time series by a user-defined number of typical periods or by decreasing the temporal resolution.

 ## Installation
-It is recommended to install tsam within its own environment. If you are no familiar with python environments, plaese consider to read some [external documentation](https://realpython.com/python-virtual-environments-a-primer/). In the following we assume you have a [mamba](https://mamba.readthedocs.io/en/latest/installation/mamba-installation.html) or [conda](https://www.anaconda.com/) installation.  All conda and mamba command are interchangeable.
-
-### Direct Installations from Package Manager Repositories
-
-If you want to prevent any possible dependency conflicts create a new environment using the following command:
-
-	mamba create -n tsam_env python pip
-
-Activate an existing or the newly create environment afterward
 
-	mamba activate tsam_env
+To avoid dependency conflicts, it is recommended that you install Tsam in its own environment. You can use either [uv](https://docs.astral.sh/uv/)  or [conda/mamba](https://conda-forge.org/download/) ) to manage environments and installations. Before proceeding, you must install either UV or Conda/Mamba, or both.
 
-Directly install via pip from pypi as follows:
+**Quick Install with uv**
 
-	pip install tsam
+```bash
+uv venv tsam_env
+uv pip install tsam
+```
 
-or install from conda forge with the following command:
+Or from conda-forge:
 
-	conda install tsam -c conda-forge
+```bash
+conda create -n tsam_env -c conda-forge tsam
+```
 
-### Local Installation for Development
-Alternatively, clone a local copy of the repository to your computer
+conda and mamba can be used interchangeably
 
-	git clone https://github.com/FZJ-IEK3-VSA/tsam.git
+### Development Installation
 
-Change the directory of your shell into the root folder of the repository
+```bash
+git clone https://github.com/FZJ-IEK3-VSA/tsam.git
+cd tsam
+```
 
-	cd tsam
+# Using uv (recommended)
+```bash
+uv venv
+source .venv/bin/activate  # On Windows: .venv\Scripts\activate
+uv pip install -e ".[develop]"
+```
 
-For development, it is recommended to install tsam into its own environment using conda e.g.
+# Using conda-forge
 
-	conda env create --file=requirement.yml
+```bash
+conda env create -n tsam_env --file=environment.yml
+conda activate tsam_env
+pip install -e . --no-deps
+```
 
-Afterward activate the environment
+# Set up pre-commit hooks
+```bash
+pre-commit install
+```
 
-	conda activate tsam_env
+See [CONTRIBUTING.md](CONTRIBUTING.md) for detailed development guidelines.
 
-Then install tsam via pip as follows
-	
-	
-	pip install -e .[dev]
-	
-### Installation of MILP Solver for k-medoids	
-In order to use the k-medoids clustering, make sure that you have installed a MILP solver. As default [HiGHS](https://github.com/ERGO-Code/HiGHS) is installed and used. Nevertheless, in case you have access to a license we recommend commercial solvers (e.g. Gurobi or CPLEX) since they have a better performance.
+### MILP Solver for k-medoids
 
-### Developer installation
+[HiGHS](https://github.com/ERGO-Code/HiGHS) is installed by default. For better performance on large problems, commercial solvers (Gurobi, CPLEX) are recommended if you have a license
 
-In order to setup a virtual environment in Linux, correct the python name in the Makefile and call
 
-	make setup_venv
-	
-	
 ## Examples
 
 ### Basic workflow
 
-A small example how tsam can be used is decribed as follows
+A small example how tsam can be used is described as follows:
 ```python
-	import pandas as pd
-	import tsam.timeseriesaggregation as tsam
+import pandas as pd
+import tsam
 ```
 
 
 Read in the time series data set with pandas
 ```python
-	raw = pd.read_csv('testdata.csv', index_col = 0)
+raw = pd.read_csv('testdata.csv', index_col=0, parse_dates=True)
 ```
 
-Initialize an aggregation object and define the length of a single period, the number of typical periods, the number of segments in each period, the aggregation method and the representation method - here duration/distribution representation which contains the minimum and maximum value of the original time series 
+Run the aggregation - specify the number of typical periods and configure clustering/segmentation options:
 ```python
-	aggregation = tsam.TimeSeriesAggregation(raw, 
-						noTypicalPeriods = 8, 
-						hoursPerPeriod = 24, 
-						segmentation = True,
-						noSegments = 8,
-						representationMethod = "distributionAndMinMaxRepresentation",
-						distributionPeriodWise = False
-						clusterMethod = 'hierarchical'
-						)
+from tsam import aggregate, ClusterConfig, SegmentConfig
+
+result = tsam.aggregate(
+    raw,
+    n_clusters=8,
+    period_duration='24h',  # or 24, '1d'
+    cluster=ClusterConfig(
+        method='hierarchical',
+        representation='distribution_minmax',
+    ),
+    segments=SegmentConfig(n_segments=8),
+)
 ```
 
-Run the aggregation to typical periods
+Access the results:
 ```python
-	typPeriods = aggregation.createTypicalPeriods()
+# Get the typical periods DataFrame
+cluster_representatives = result.cluster_representatives
+
+# Check accuracy metrics
+print(f"RMSE: {result.accuracy.rmse.mean():.4f}")
+
+# Reconstruct the original time series from typical periods
+reconstructed = result.reconstructed
+
+# Save results
+cluster_representatives.to_csv('cluster_representatives.csv')
 ```
 
-Store the results as .csv file
-	
+### Legacy API
+
+For backward compatibility, the class-based API of TSAM Version 2 is still available.
 ```python
-	typPeriods.to_csv('typperiods.csv')
+import tsam.timeseriesaggregation as tsam_legacy
+
+aggregation = tsam_legacy.TimeSeriesAggregation(
+    raw,
+    noTypicalPeriods=8,
+    hoursPerPeriod=24,
+    segmentation=True,
+    noSegments=8,
+    representationMethod="distributionAndMinMaxRepresentation",
+    clusterMethod='hierarchical'
+)
+cluster_representatives = aggregation.createTypicalPeriods()
 ```
