Note that when duplicate components are specified in a list, the duplicate component names will be modified with the
component's index in the list. For example, the component graph

An empty dictionary {} implies using all default values for component parameters. Pipeline-level
parameters such as time_index, gap, and max_delay must be specified with the "pipeline" key. For example:
Pipeline(parameters={"pipeline": {"time_index": "Date", "max_delay": 4, "gap": 2}}).
