Enterprise-grade pre-training identifiability diagnostics for regime-switching models

Identifiability Diagnostic Framework

Overview

An enterprise-grade, production-ready unsupervised pre-training geometric diagnostic system for identifying practical identifiability boundaries in 2-regime Switching State-Space Models (S-SSMs).

This framework implements a novel algorithm that constructs an Observable Moment Matrix from interventional data and applies Singular Value Decomposition (SVD) to determine whether regime parameters are identifiable from observations alone.

Key Features

• 🎯 SVD-based Identifiability Analysis: Automatically detects parameter identifiability via spectral metrics
• 🔄 Regime-Switching Support: Full support for multi-regime autoregressive processes with exogenous interventions
• 📊 Comprehensive Metrics: Effective rank, condition numbers, singular values, deployment decisions
• 🛡️ Production-Grade: Full type hints, error handling, logging, and extensive test coverage
• 🚀 CI/CD Ready: GitHub Actions workflows, automated testing, code quality checks
• 📦 Easy Installation: PyPI-ready package with full dependency management
• 💻 Cross-Platform: Runs on Linux, macOS, and Windows

Installation

From PyPI

pip install identifiability-diagnostic

From Source

git clone https://github.com/yourorg/identifiability-diagnostic.git
cd identifiability-diagnostic
pip install -e .

Development Installation

pip install -e ".[dev]"

Quick Start

Basic Usage

from identifiability_diagnostic import (
    RegimeSwitchingGenerator,
    PretrainingDiagnosticPipeline
)
from identifiability_diagnostic.utils.config import load_config

# Load configuration
config = load_config('config/parameters.yaml')

# Generate synthetic data
generator = RegimeSwitchingGenerator(config)
y, u = generator.generate(epsilon=1e-3, symmetric=False)

# Run diagnostic pipeline
pipeline = PretrainingDiagnosticPipeline(config)
metrics = pipeline.run(y, u)

# Interpret results
print(f"σ_2 = {metrics['sigma_2']:.4e}")
print(f"Decision: {metrics['deploy_decision']}")
print(f"Identifiable: {metrics['identifiable']}")

Command-Line Interface

# Run parametric sweep
python main.py --config config/parameters.yaml --log-level INFO

# Run with custom epsilon values
python main.py --epsilon 1e-5 1e-4 1e-3 1e-2 1e-1

# Test mode (smaller dataset)
python main.py --test --verbose

# Symmetric control only
python main.py --symmetric-only

Algorithm Overview

The framework implements a 7-step diagnostic pipeline:

1. Compute First-Order Innovations: dy_t = y_t - y_{t-1}
2. Lift to Feature Space: v_t = [dy_t, dy_{t-1}]^T
3. Align Interventional Context: Match intervention levels to innovation timeline
4. Construct Moment Matrix: M ∈ ℝ^{|U| × 4} with conditional covariances
5. Execute SVD: Singular Value Decomposition of M
6. Compute Metrics: Effective rank, singular values, condition numbers
7. Deploy Gate: σ_2 > τ determines identifiability

Mathematical Foundation

For regime-switching model:

y_t = a_{s_t} y_{t-1} + b_{s_t} u_t + c_{s_t} u_t y_{t-1} + η_t

The Observable Moment Matrix captures covariance structure stratified by intervention level. SVD spectrum determines whether regimes can be distinguished from data.

Key Decision Rule:

• If σ_2 > threshold (τ = 5.12e-17): Identifiable ✓ Deploy estimator
• If σ_2 ≤ threshold: Non-identifiable ✗ Abort training
