Implementation Summary: AstroML Improvements

Overview

This document summarizes the three major improvements implemented for AstroML:

  1. Quick Start Command - Single entry point for ingestion → graph → train pipeline
  2. Benchmark Reproducibility - Config and seed storage with results
  3. Architecture Documentation - Detailed diagrams and module organization

1. Quick Start Command

Files Created

astroml/quick_start.py (350 lines)

A complete end-to-end pipeline that:

  • Generates synthetic sample data (ledgers, accounts, transactions)
  • Builds a transaction graph with validation
  • Trains a baseline LinkPredictor model
  • Saves reproducible results with config and metadata

Key Classes:

  • QuickStartConfig - Configuration with sensible defaults
  • run_quickstart() - Main orchestration function

Key Functions:

  • set_random_seeds() - Sets seeds for reproducibility
  • generate_sample_ledgers() - Creates synthetic Stellar data
  • build_sample_graph() - Constructs transaction graph
  • train_baseline_model() - Trains LinkPredictor
  • save_benchmark_config() - Saves config + results

Usage:

python -m astroml.quick_start [--num-ledgers 100] [--num-accounts 50] [--epochs 10] [--seed 42]

Makefile (30 lines)

Convenient make targets for development:

  • make quickstart - Run quick start with defaults
  • make quickstart-verbose - Run with more data
  • make test, make lint, make format - Development commands
  • make clean - Clean build artifacts

Usage:

make quickstart

Files Modified

astroml/cli.py

Added quickstart subcommand:

quickstart = sub.add_parser(
    "quickstart",
    help="Run quick start: ingestion → graph → train pipeline with sample data",
)
quickstart.add_argument("--num-ledgers", type=int, default=100)
quickstart.add_argument("--num-accounts", type=int, default=50)
quickstart.add_argument("--epochs", type=int, default=10)
quickstart.add_argument("--seed", type=int, default=42)

Usage:

python -m astroml quickstart --num-ledgers 100 --num-accounts 50 --epochs 10 --seed 42

Output Structure

benchmark_results/quickstart/
├── config.json          # Full configuration with random seed
├── result.json          # Training metrics and performance
└── metadata.json        # Run metadata linking config and result

================================================================================

2. Benchmark Reproducibility

Problem

Previously, benchmark results were saved without their configuration or random seeds, making it impossible to reproduce runs.

Solution

Enhanced astroml/benchmarking/core.py to save three linked files per run:

_save_results() Method Enhancement

def _save_results(self, result: BenchmarkResult):
    """Save benchmark results and configuration to file for reproducibility.

    Saves:
    - result.json: Benchmark results with all metrics
    - config.json: Full configuration including random seed
    - metadata.json: Metadata linking config and result
    """
    output_dir = Path(self.config.output_dir)
    output_dir.mkdir(parents=True, exist_ok=True)

    # Generate timestamp for unique run identification
    timestamp = datetime.utcnow().isoformat()
    run_id = f"{result.model_name}_{int(result.timestamp)}"

    # Save result
    result_dict = asdict(result)
    result_path = output_dir / f"{run_id}_result.json"
    with open(result_path, 'w') as f:
        json.dump(result_dict, f, indent=2, default=str)

    # Save configuration for reproducibility
    config_dict = asdict(self.config)
    config_path = output_dir / f"{run_id}_config.json"
    with open(config_path, 'w') as f:
        json.dump(config_dict, f, indent=2, default=str)

    # Save metadata linking config and result
    metadata = {
        "run_id": run_id,
        "timestamp": timestamp,
        "model_name": result.model_name,
        "random_seed": result.random_seed,
        "device": result.device,
        "config_file": str(config_path),
        "result_file": str(result_path),
        "train_time_seconds": result.train_time,
        "epochs_trained": result.epochs_trained,
        "best_metrics": result.metrics,
    }
    metadata_path = output_dir / f"{run_id}_metadata.json"
    with open(metadata_path, 'w') as f:
        json.dump(metadata, f, indent=2)

How to Reproduce a Run

import json
from astroml.benchmarking.config import BenchmarkConfig
from astroml.benchmarking.core import ModelBenchmark

# Load config
with open("benchmark_results/quickstart/LinkPredictor_1234567890_config.json") as f:
    config_dict = json.load(f)

# Create config with same settings
config = BenchmarkConfig(**config_dict)

# Run benchmark - will produce identical results
benchmark = ModelBenchmark(config)
result = benchmark.run_benchmark()

  • ✓ All configs stored with results
  • ✓ Random seeds tracked
