Struct Definition

pub struct RegimeCUSUMFeatures {
    detector: CUSUMDetector,
    breaks_window: VecDeque<StructuralBreak>,
    window_size: usize,
    bar_count: usize,
    last_break_bar: Option<usize>,
    last_break_result: Option<StructuralBreak>,
}

Constructor

pub fn new(target_mean: f64, target_std: f64, drift_allowance: f64, threshold: f64) -> Self

Parameters:

• target_mean: Expected mean under H0 (no change)
• target_std: Expected standard deviation under H0
• drift_allowance: Minimum drift to trigger detection (in std units)
• threshold: CUSUM threshold for break detection (typically 3-5)

Update Method (FULLY IMPLEMENTED)

pub fn update(&mut self, value: f64) -> [f64; 10]

Returns 10 features:

Index	Feature Name	Description	Range
201	S+ Normalized	Positive CUSUM sum / threshold	[0.0, 1.5]
202	S- Normalized	Negative CUSUM sum / threshold	[0.0, 1.5]
203	Break Indicator	1.0 if break occurred, else 0.0	{0.0, 1.0}
204	Direction	+1.0 positive, -1.0 negative, 0.0 none	{-1.0, 0.0, 1.0}
205	Time Since Break	Bars elapsed since last break	[0.0, 100.0]
206	Frequency	Breaks per 100 bars	[0.0, 100.0]
207	Positive Break Count	Count of positive breaks in window	[0.0, 100.0]
208	Negative Break Count	Count of negative breaks in window	[0.0, 100.0]
209	Intensity	abs(S+ - S-) / threshold	[0.0, ~2.0]
210	Drift Ratio	drift_allowance / threshold	[0.0, 1.0]

Feature Calculation Logic

Algorithm Overview

1. Update CUSUM Detector: Process new value and check for structural breaks
2. Track Breaks: Maintain sliding window of recent breaks (capacity: 100)
3. Compute Features:
   • Normalize CUSUM statistics (S+, S-) by threshold
   • Detect and flag break occurrences
   • Track time since last break
   • Calculate break frequency and direction bias
   • Measure intensity and drift ratio

Key Implementation Details

• Sliding Window: VecDeque with automatic pop when exceeding capacity
• Break Tracking: Stores last break bar and result for time calculations
• Normalization: All features normalized for ML model consumption
• Clamping: S+/S- clamped to [0.0, 1.5] to prevent outliers

2. Public Export

Performance Characteristics

Expected Performance

• Target: <50μs per bar update
• Expected: ~10-20μs (based on CUSUM benchmark: 0.01μs)

Memory Usage

• Struct Size: ~1KB (VecDeque with 100 StructuralBreak capacity)
• Per-Bar Allocation: Minimal (only on break detection)

Optimizations

• Pre-allocated VecDeque (capacity: 100)
• Efficient sliding window with pop_front/push_back
• Inline feature calculations (no intermediate allocations)

Compilation Status

✅ COMPILES WITHOUT ERRORS

Verified with:

cargo check -p ml --lib

Result: No compilation errors in regime_cusum module

Note: Unrelated errors exist in regime_adx.rs and regime_transition.rs, but they do not affect this module.

// Update with new bar's log return
let log_return = 0.0015; // 0.15% return
