jgrusewski 679a483de5 feat: wire CVaR action selection + implement CQL conservative loss GPU kernel
Task 4 — CVaR Action Selection:
- Add use_cvar_action_selection and cvar_alpha fields to DQNHyperparameters
- Wire from hyperparams into DQNConfig constructor (was hardcoded to false)
- Default: enabled (true) with alpha=0.05 (worst 5% quantile tail)
- Unblocks risk-aware position scaling via IQN head's compute_cvar_q()

Task 5 — Curiosity Wiring (verified active):
- GpuCuriosityTrainer trains forward model on GPU experience data
- train_curiosity_gpu() called from training_loop after experience collection
- curiosity_weight=0.05 (Task 2) gates trainer creation — active when >0
- Intrinsic reward injection into DQN kernel deferred (Phase 4+, per kernel docs)

Task 6 — CQL Conservative Loss GPU Kernel:
- Add use_cql/cql_alpha to GpuDqnTrainConfig (wired from DQNHyperparameters)
- Implement cql_logit_grad_kernel: computes dCQL/d_logits for Branching Dueling C51
  - Per-branch logsumexp penalty with softmax gradient through expectation chain
  - One thread per sample, iterates 3 branches (exposure, order, urgency)
- Add apply_cql_gradient() method: launches CQL kernel + cuBLAS backward_full
  - Accumulates CQL parameter gradients into grad_buf (beta=1.0)
  - Same injection pattern as IQN trunk gradient
- Wire into FusedTrainingCtx::run_full_step() between graph_forward and graph_adam

Frontend

web-dashboard/ -- React 19 + TypeScript + Vite + TradingView charts.

Building

# Check compilation (no PostgreSQL required)
SQLX_OFFLINE=true cargo check --workspace

# Run tests for a specific crate
SQLX_OFFLINE=true cargo test -p <crate> --lib

# Clippy

ML Models

Four production model architectures on Candle v0.9.1 with CUDA:

  • DQN Rainbow -- Deep Q-Network with prioritized replay, dueling heads, noisy nets
  • PPO -- Proximal Policy Optimization with GAE and LSTM policies
  • TFT -- Temporal Fusion Transformer for multi-horizon forecasting
  • Mamba2 -- State space model for sequence prediction

Each model has a standalone trainer and a UnifiedTrainable adapter for the hyperopt pipeline.

Infrastructure

  • Git: Gitea at git.fxhnt.ai (Tailscale-only), Scaleway DEV1-S
  • Observability: OpenTelemetry OTLP (env OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_ENDPOINT)
  • Database: PostgreSQL with SQLx offline mode for CI
