Examples

Every page here is a runnable story: problem, data, an API walkthrough with executed snippets, and a discussion of which task, door, criterion, and solver were in play. The first three enter through each of the three doors in turn; the Michelson-phase page covers the analytic ScoreFunction route and the NumPy backend at once; the shootout puts every solver and baseline on one problem; the next five are theory demonstrations — a nuisance-parameter criterion, a soft relaxation, two counterexamples, and global certification; the last two point into real data — a real classifier-to-score bridge on the public FAIR Universe HiggsML dataset, and the complete FlowCyt population-fraction study.

Eleven of the twelve pages have a matching notebook under examples/notebooks/ that runs the same story at a larger, more decisive scale. See Three doors for what a door is, and Diagnostics and choosing a method for a task-first decision guide.

Page Demonstrates Task(s) Door Notebook
door1-score-events Precomputed (event, score) rows, an exchange-stability certificate, and the compile bridge from a partition into a reusable rule Both 1 door1_score_events.ipynb
door2-mixture-densities Analytic component densities to a binned mixture-fraction measurement, with a two-parameter IntegrationSource fit Space quantization 2 door2_mixture_densities.ipynb
door3-classifier Classifier-derived density ratios turned into scores, retention against classifier quality, the ratio-closure check, and the surrogate-information caveat Space quantization 3 door3_classifier.ipynb
michelson-phase An analytic ScoreFunction against a bounded IntegrationSource on the NumPy backend, a closed-form profiled ceiling, aliasing in a naive detector segmentation, the compiled D rule's comb, and the fragments of the profiled partition diagnosed Both 2 michelson_phase.ipynb
solver-shootout Every solver the library dispatches, and the three canonical baselines, on one two-parameter problem Both 1 solver_shootout.ipynb
nuisance-profiled-ds Plain D against profiled \(D_s\) for a signal fraction with a floating background shape, an efficient-score ceiling, and a DP initializer Sample partitioning 1 nuisance_profiled_ds.ipynb
soft-purification Responsibility-space relaxation, a temperature schedule, the hardening gap, and purification Space quantization 1 soft_purification.ipynb
lloyd-nonmonotone The manuscript's non-monotone Lloyd step, and the guard's acceptance trace rescuing it Sample partitioning 1 lloyd_nonmonotone.ipynb
ds-geometry-counterexample An exact rational fixture whose globally optimal profiled-\(D_s\) partition violates its own induced geometry, and why there is no compile bridge Sample partitioning 1 ds_geometry_counterexample.ipynb
global-certification Branch-and-bound optimality certificates and a multi-restart hit-rate study Sample partitioning 2 global_certification.ipynb
hep-classifier A signal-vs-background classifier and a tes minus/plus classifier feeding two different ratio doors on the public FAIR Universe HiggsML dataset, profiled \(D_s\) against a certified ceiling, and a delta convergence study Both 3 hep_classifier.ipynb
flowcyt-teaser A pointer into the complete real-data FlowCyt study: 600,000 real cells, a classifier-derived score, and a full population-fraction measurement Space quantization 3 — see the FlowCyt study
