# lyagushka
|
||
|
||
(Russian лягушка [lʲɪˈɡuʂkə]: frog)
|
||
|
||
Lyagushka is a Rust command-line tool inspired by Fatum Project's ['Zhaba' algorithm](https://gist.github.com/randogoth/ab5ab9e8665303be176f16241e7b26b5) (Russian 'жаба': toad) and expands upon it for more versatility.
|
||
|
||
It is an algorithm that analyzes a one-dimensional dataset of integers to identify clusters of closely grouped "attractor" points and significant "void" gaps between these clusters. It calculates z-scores for each cluster or gap to measure their statistical significance relative to the dataset's mean density and distance between points. The analysis results, including attractors, voids, and their z-scores, are output as a JSON string.
|
||
|
||
## Building
|
||
|
||
With a Rust and Cargo environment set up, simply run:
|
||
|
||
```sh
|
||
cargo build --release
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
To also compile a Python wheel, you need Maturin set up:
|
||
|
||
```sh
|
||
pipenv install
|
||
pipenv shell
|
||
maturin build --release
|
||
pip install target/wheels/lyagushka-1.1.0*.whl
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## Usage
|
||
|
||
### Parameters
|
||
|
||
* `filename.txt` (optional): A file containing a newline-separated list of integers to analyze. If not provided, the program expects input from stdin.
|
||
* `factor`: A floating-point value by which the mean density/span is multiplied to make up a threshold for attractor and void detection.
|
||
* `min_cluster_size`: An integer specifying the minimum number of contiguous points required to be considered a cluster.
|
||
|
||
### Output
|
||
|
||
The tool outputs a JSON string that includes details about the identified attractors and voids, along with their respective z-scores. Here's an example of the JSON output format:
|
||
|
||
```json
|
||
|
||
[
|
||
//...
|
||
{
|
||
"elements": [ 722, 722, 722, 725, 725, 726, 726, 726],
|
||
"start": 722,
|
||
"end": 726,
|
||
"span_length": 4,
|
||
"num_elements": 8,
|
||
"centroid": 724.0,
|
||
"z_score": 1.19528
|
||
},
|
||
{
|
||
"elements": [],
|
||
"start": 732,
|
||
"end": 740,
|
||
"span_length": 8,
|
||
"num_elements": 0,
|
||
"centroid": 736.0,
|
||
"z_score": -1.13359
|
||
},
|
||
//...
|
||
]
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### From a File
|
||
|
||
To analyze a dataset from a file, provide the filename as an argument, followed by the factor and minimum cluster size parameters
|
||
```sh
|
||
lyagushka random_values.txt 1.5 6
|
||
```
|
||
(= '*Attractor clusters need to have at least 6 numbers with 1.5 times the mean density, void gaps need to be at leat 1.5 times the mean gap size wide*')
|
||
|
||
### From Stdin
|
||
|
||
Alternatively, you can pipe a list of integers into the tool, followed by the factor and minimum cluster size.
|
||
|
||
```sh
|
||
cat random_values.txt | lyagushka 0.5 2
|
||
``` |
