@AshrafIbrahim03 did you verify tests with all targets n features? |
|
I did not. I just reread through the contributing section of the README to see if it details how to run those, but I don't see it. How can I do that? |
|
probably you find out: Thanks, the call sites compile now. I checked the latest commit but three KS tests still fail. currently order is wrong. are you sure it should be like that? may you add some context to Pr ? |
|
Yes, just saw the last three tests fail, pushing a fix for it now! Some more context: basically we were talking about a contribution I could make in #405 , and it seemed like changing the ks sampling function to take a I also noticed the ks one sample function that I should probably bundle in this PR too! |

I realize I steered you astray. I think it's better to let the caller opt into copying data. Ideally, we could obtain an iterator over the "sorted" data borrowing, but I don't know if that's easy to express, or we just verify order along with nan policy with an iterator argument. Thoughts as a user? |
|
If I need to retain the input data, I can clone it explicitly, otherwise the function can consume and sort it without hidden copies |
|
@AshrafIbrahim03 that means we should go the other way, convert those that accept slices to instead own as Vec for data we sort in place. It would be great if there were a way to get an iterator that's element-wise sorted, because then the API expresses we need each value in order. It's incidental that we happen to sort the data ourselves to access that ordering of the values efficiently. Maybe we'll defer that for larger datasets that need to be streamed. |
|
@AshrafIbrahim03 need any help here? |
Just coming back to this now. |
This sounds like it could be a new interface that implements Iterator, but calling next just returns the sorted elements, no? |
|
Accidentally overwrote my prior commits, but it didn't seem like those were needed. I pushed a commit that has some code with a basic sorted iterator. The implementation is not efficient, but is that the type of input you're looking for in the ks_test functions? |
|
i dont think so, it still will be clone. |
Think I'd need to see the API for the ks_*sample functions to be certain, but I do agree with @day01 that if you wanted to provide the But we have some good constraints, we need to be able to have a pull-iterator in a sorted order (the for loop in the algorithm) and we want to avoid a clone of the data in the source structure. Let me know if you're okay with hints/want something clearer/have argument we're missing for your approach. If you write out a usage example that exhibits both of these:
It could also be a good simplifying point to assume that you start with a Vec<T: Ord> and then generalize from there asking "what would I need to provide to express a similar constraint?" |
|
I think you're right that taking in a new data structure, like I think an Iterator implementation would be the best approach, because only reason for mutability in the functions is for sorting, even calculating the test statistics takes iterators There's one problem with this approach that I've been looking into during my spare time, that being how to iterate through a collection in a sorted order without mutating the underlying data structure or making the iterator itself expensive. I've been doing some research trying to figure this out with just I'm working on a minimum viable rewrite of the Let me know if this is a good approach or not. If this isn't I would like some more guidance on how to approach this problem! |

Support borrowed slice inputs.
IntoSortedIterator has an implementation only for Vec<f64>. Therefore ks_onesample cannot accept &[f64]. This does not meet the borrowed-slice API objective.
Add an implementation for &[f64]. Add a ks_onesample(data.as_slice(), ...) regression test.

Restore the NaNPolicy contract.
NaNPolicy::Emit now returns SampleContainsNaN for every input, including samples without NaN values. NaNPolicy::Error silently removes NaN values instead of returning SampleContainsNaN.
The existing test at src/stats_tests/ks_test.rs Lines 649-656 expects Emit to remove NaN values and then return SampleTooSmall. This change makes that test fail.
Inspect the sorted input for NaN values. Return SampleContainsNaN only for NaNPolicy::Error. Filter NaN values for NaNPolicy::Emit.

Canonicalize signed zero before tie detection.
-0.0 and 0.0 are equal numeric observations, but to_bits() gives them different keys. A sample containing both values has a tie, yet this code allows the exact method to continue and return an invalid exact p-value.
Canonicalize zero before inserting the key. Add a regression test with [-0.0, 0.0].

I got stuck on this too. The difficult part seems to be that the property we want to express is about the values yielded by the iterator, rather than something its type necessarily enforces. A structure like a B-tree can guarantee ordering as an invariant, but an arbitrary iterator generally can't. There's also a stronger assumption hiding here: the iterator is traversing a fixed dataset. That's more restrictive than just Hint if you want itWhat if we narrow the idea to: "assert that this iterator will uphold an ordering"? More hintThen the implementation needs to know something about adjacent elements -> perhaps Last hintThat also gives you a useful building block for something like merging two sorted arrays into a |

Rust 1.89 std Result unwrap expect requires E Debug official documentation
💡 Result:
In Rust 1.89, the std::result::Result::unwrap and std::result::Result::expect methods do indeed require the error type E to implement the std::fmt::Debug trait [1]. This requirement exists because both methods are designed to panic if the Result contains an Err variant [1]. When they panic, the methods include the value of the Err variant in the panic message to assist with debugging [1]. Consequently, the type E must implement Debug so that it can be formatted and displayed in the error message [1]. The function signatures in the official documentation for Rust 1.89 reflect this constraint [1]: pub fn expect(self, msg: &str) -> T where E: Debug pub fn unwrap(self) -> T where E: Debug Conversely, methods like Result::expect_err and Result::unwrap_err, which extract the error value when the result is an Err, require the success type T to implement the Debug trait instead, as they must format the Ok value if a panic occurs [1].

I thought about what you said a little bit and realized that you meant making sorting the caller's issue. I made a new struct called When I was looking at your hints, I thought that they leaned towards Haskell style arrays with compile time bounds on the values. The issue I see with that approach would be that it would mean that the sorted verification could only happen at compile time. If that's not what you meant by it, I would love more clarification so I can try and implement it. |

Accept equal adjacent values, or enforce strict ordering in both constructors.
from_mut_vec(vec![1, 1]) succeeds because sort() retains duplicates. from_slice(&[1, 1]) returns SortError::NotSorted at Line 25. This makes equivalent owned and borrowed inputs behave differently and rejects valid tied statistical samples through the borrowed API.

Do not bind iter to the storage lifetime.
SortedCollection::iter requires a local collection to be borrowed for the input slice lifetime. Therefore, a helper such as count can fail to compile because sorted does not live for 'a. Use iter(&self) -> std::slice::Iter<'_, T>.

Yes, I thought to put it on the caller. The compile level I mentioned would only have the value of a marker trait so would since we can't figure out if data is sorted by its type unless it's from a data structure that has a traversal that guarantees some ordering. I think SortedCollection is a good start, perhaps named SortedSlice for specificity, and it doesn't seem close to widen the ks two sample API into something like an iterator extension or newtype that SortedSlice provides. The reason for an iterator API is that I know someone is using statrs for a polars plugin, and polars handles upstream sorts in an execution plan by a marker variable, so there's not actually data yet let alone sorted, but by the time statrs algorithms are executing there will be sorted data and by then I think it will also store the size as well. @FBruzzesi do you have any input on how you'd consume this API for your polars plugin if you were to use it? |
|
Thanks for the ping @YeungOnion Context for my use case first. Today Disclaimer: I have not read the polars plugin internals, so treat the below as observed behaviour rather than the documented contract. The plugin API is thinly documented, so it is worth double-checking with the polars team (they have a Discord with dedicated plugins and rust channels). My understanding is that by the time my plugin function runs, polars has already planned the query and executed the sort. What arrives is plain materialized data, and there is no laziness left on the Rust side of the plugin boundary. I have also never found a way to ask, from inside a plugin, whether the column was sorted upstream. Even if I could check it, polars' notion of sorted is a looser promise than >>> pl.Series([3.0, float("nan"), None, 1.0]).sort().to_list()
[None, 1.0, 3.0, nan] # flagged SORTED_ASC
>>> pl.Series([3.0, 1.0, 2.0]).set_sorted().flags
{'SORTED_ASC': True, 'SORTED_DESC': False} # not sorted, no complaintSo I would validate on the plugin side regardless, and that is fine (it's one linear scan). The two things that do cost are elsewhere.
Concretely, the difference would look like something along these lines: let a = a_series.f64()?.drop_nulls(); // polars nulls are not NaN; NaNPolicy still applies to NaN
let b = b_series.f64()?.drop_nulls();
// slice API: a full copy each whenever the column arrived in more than one chunk
let (a, b) = (a.rechunk(), b.rechunk());
let out = ks_twosample(
SortedSlice::try_from_slice(a.cont_slice()?)?,
SortedSlice::try_from_slice(b.cont_slice()?)?,
method,
nan_policy,
)?;
// iterator API: no copy, chunks walked in place
let out = ks_twosample(
a.into_no_null_iter().assert_sorted(),
b.into_no_null_iter().assert_sorted(),
method,
nan_policy,
)?;So to answer your question directly: I hope this helps 😇 |
Through some discussion in #405 , it seemed like refactoring ks_twosample was needed. Basically just changed the function signature from:
to
This is more in line with what's in other files in the same folder.
