HDBSCAN OHLCV Pattern Discovery

GPU-accelerated HDBSCAN clustering for OHLCV (Open, High, Low, Close, Volume) trading data with automatic CPU fallback.

Features

• 🚀 GPU Acceleration - Automatic detection and use of CUDA/cuML with graceful CPU fallback
• 🔄 Smart Caching - 28x faster backend detection through intelligent caching
• 💾 Memory Efficient - Batch processing for large datasets (millions of bars)
• ✅ Data Validation - Automatic OHLC relationship validation
• 📊 Type Safe - Full type hints with dataclasses for structured data
• 🛠️ Production Ready - Environment variable configuration, error recovery, comprehensive logging

Installation

# Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/yourusername/hdbscan_ohlcv.git
cd hdbscan_ohlcv

# Create conda environment with Python 3.11 (recommended for GPU support)
conda create -n hdbscan_gpu python=3.11 -y
conda activate hdbscan_gpu

# Install dependencies
pip install -r requirements.txt

# Optional: Install GPU dependencies (if you have CUDA 12.x)
pip install cupy-cuda12x cuml-cu12 --extra-index-url=https://pypi.nvidia.com

Quick Start

from src import OHLCVDataLoader, generate_sample_ohlcv, detect_compute_backend

# Detect available backend (GPU/CPU)
backend_type, backend_module = detect_compute_backend()
print(f"Using {backend_type.upper()} backend")

# Load OHLCV data
df = generate_sample_ohlcv(n_bars=1000)
loader = OHLCVDataLoader(df, validate_ohlc=True)

# Create windows for pattern analysis
windows = loader.create_windows(window_size=10)
print(f"Created {len(windows)} windows")

# For large datasets, use batch processing
for batch in loader.create_windows(window_size=10, batch_size=10000):
    # Process each batch
    pass

Configuration

Environment Variables

# Set minimum GPU memory requirement (default: 1.0 GB)
export MIN_GPU_MEMORY_GB=2.5

# Force CPU backend (useful for testing)
export FORCE_CPU=true

# Set log level
export LOG_LEVEL=DEBUG

Python Configuration

from src import Config

# View current configuration
print(Config.get_config_summary())

# Generate HDBSCAN hyperparameter configurations
configs = Config.generate_hdbscan_configs()
print(f"Generated {len(configs)} configurations")

API Reference

OHLCVDataLoader

from src import OHLCVDataLoader

# Initialize with DataFrame
loader = OHLCVDataLoader(
    df_ohlcv,                # pandas DataFrame with OHLCV data
    copy=True,               # Copy DataFrame (safer, uses memory)
    validate_ohlc=True       # Validate OHLC relationships
)

# Properties
loader.n_bars                # Number of bars
loader.has_datetime_index    # Check if datetime indexed
loader.date_range            # Get (start, end) tuple

# Create windows
windows = loader.create_windows(
    window_size=10,          # Number of bars per window
    batch_size=None          # Optional: batch size for memory efficiency
)

Backend Detection

from src import detect_compute_backend, get_backend_info

# Detect backend
backend_type, backend_module = detect_compute_backend(
    force_refresh=False,     # Bypass cache
    min_gpu_memory_gb=1.0    # Minimum GPU memory required
)

# Get detailed info
info = get_backend_info(backend_type, backend_module)
print(info)  # Pretty formatted output
