epistemic-graph 0.26.0

Rust-based epistemic graph engine for agent-utilities

epistemic-graph

Unified Rust-Native Compute Engine for AI Agent Infrastructure
_{Consolidates graph operations, quantitative finance, data science, AST analysis, and OWL reasoning into a single high-performance binary.}

---

Architecture

The epistemic-graph crate is the singular computation engine for the agent-utilities ecosystem. All high-performance operations route through this crate, exposed to Python via PyO3 FFI or accessed remotely via the Tokio UDS/TCP server.

Features

Core Graph Engine (CONCEPT:KG-2.2)

• petgraph-backed: Native-compiled Rust graph structures
• Temporal Knowledge Graph (TKG): Ebbinghaus Forgetting Curve and fact decay natively integrated
• Topological Sort: Sub-millisecond DAG resolving
• DFS Cycle Detection: Returns precise cycle paths
• Shortest Path: Efficient unweighted BFS traversal
• Blast Radius: Transitive impact analysis to configurable depth
• PageRank & PPR: Centrality computation
• Community Detection: Louvain-style graph clustering
• VF2 Subgraph Isomorphism: Pattern matching queries
• Reactive State Ledger: Transaction log with replay for backend persistence

Finance Engine (CONCEPT:QF-1.0)

• Portfolio Optimization: Mean-variance (MVO), min-variance, risk-parity, efficient frontier
• Risk Metrics: VaR (historical + Monte Carlo), CVaR, Sortino, Calmar, max drawdown
• Regime Detection: Hidden Markov Model (Baum-Welch + Viterbi)
• Signal Generation: Rolling Z-score, EWMA, momentum, alpha combination, information coefficient
• Execution Algorithms: TWAP/VWAP scheduling, market impact estimation, LOB matching
• Pairs Trading: Spread signal generation and regime-aware position sizing

Data Science Engine (CONCEPT:DS-1.0)

• OLS Regression: Gradient descent with configurable learning rate and epochs
• K-Means Clustering: Parallel centroid computation
• PCA: Eigenvalue decomposition via power iteration
• Dataset Statistics: Mean, std, min, max, correlation matrix
• Estimators: ridge / lasso / elasticnet / decisiontree / randomforest / gradientboosting / adaboost / svr (replaces sklearn on the hot path)
• Training loss / optimizer kernels (CONCEPT:KG-2.22): softmax / log_softmax, cross_entropy (+grad), dpo_loss (Bradley-Terry, +grads), grpo_surrogate (PPO clip, +grad), kl_divergence (Schulman k3), adam_step / sgd_step — the pure-Rust performance path for the in-house training substrate, mirroring data-science-mcp trainers/objectives.py. client.datascience.{...}.

Reasoning Engine (CONCEPT:KG-2.23)

• Transitive/Symmetric Inference: Compiled Datalog closures
• Domain/Range Rules: OWL-style type inference
• Property Chain Composition: Multi-hop rule chaining

AST Parser

• Multi-Language: Python, Rust, TypeScript, JavaScript, Go (via tree-sitter)
• Full Granularity: Functions, classes, methods, imports stored as Symbol nodes
• Repository Ingestion: Directory walker with automatic graph population

Quickstart

1. Installation

uv pip install -e .
# or
pip install -e .

2. Python Usage

import epistemic_graph

# Initialize
g = epistemic_graph.EpistemicGraph()

# Graph operations
g.add_node("AgentA", '{"type": "coordinator"}')
g.add_node("AgentB", '{"type": "worker"}')
g.add_edge("AgentA", "AgentB", '{"weight": 1.5}')

print("Order:", g.topological_sort())
print("Cycle:", g.find_cycle())

# Finance — portfolio optimization
weights = g.optimize_portfolio([0.1, 0.15, 0.08], [[0.04, 0.01, 0.005], ...], 0.02)

# Finance — risk metrics
metrics = g.risk_metrics([0.01, -0.02, 0.03, -0.005, 0.02])

# Data Science — regression
coeffs = g.linear_regression([[1.0, 2.0], [3.0, 4.0]], [3.0, 7.0])

# Reasoning — transitive inference
inferred = g.infer_transitive(["part_of", "depends_on"], ["related_concept"])
