🏷️ Labels: Python, Gating, Data Processing, EDA, Refactor
📂 Project: Dev
⭐ Priority: MEDIUM

Session Goal

The session aimed to refactor and implement a gating policy for data processing in Python, focusing on enhancing configurability and maintainability.

Key Activities

  • Designed a ‘pairs EDA’ module, outlining API surface and migration strategies.
  • Refined a Python function for edge set generation, improving type safety and sorting.
  • Adjusted gating thresholds for graph population and implemented a new GatePolicy object.
  • Refactored bridge functions to delegate gating to a subsets() function.
  • Implemented gating policy integration with subsets functionality, including CLI support.
  • Troubleshot and resolved Python import issues, focusing on shadowing and relative imports.
  • Conducted exploratory data analysis (EDA) on tag-pair outputs using Python scripts.
  • Developed a one-command workflow for EDA and cohort building using shell scripts.

Achievements

  • Successfully centralized gating policies into a GatePolicy object and enhanced configurability with a compute_gates() function.
  • Improved Python import management and resolved issues related to shadowing and relative imports.
  • Developed comprehensive EDA scripts for analyzing tag-pair outputs and cohort data.

Pending Tasks

  • Further refine gating thresholds based on additional data insights.
  • Expand CLI functionality to support more user-defined parameters.
  • Continue improving data pipeline automation and integration.
