**BSSCL-GBM** is a highly memory-efficient, pure-Python implementation of Gradient Boosting Trees optimized with [Numba](https://numba.pydata.org/). It achieves mathematical and statistical parity with C++ giants like XGBoost and LightGBM while maintaining a fundamentally lighter memory footprint.

Developed by **Bhaskar**, BSSCL-GBM introduces novel algorithmic paradigms including **Hybrid `uint8` Histogram Binning** and mathematically dampened **`balanced_sqrt` Class Weighting** (`power=0.35`) specifically engineered for highly imbalanced datasets (e.g., fraud detection, rare disease prediction).

---

## ⚡ Features
* **Hybrid `uint8` Binning:** Radically reduces Peak RAM (Resident Set Size) consumption by packing numerical feature splits into highly optimized 8-bit integer arrays.
* **Native Missing Value Handling:** Automatically routes `NaN` values during the histogram construction phase without requiring external imputation, successfully stress-tested up to 70% data corruption.
* **Imbalance Eradication:** Introduces the `balanced_sqrt` auto-weighting mechanism (`power=0.35`) to perfectly dampen severe class imbalances (e.g., 99.9:0.1) without over-penalizing the majority class.
* **Noise Resistance:** Proven superior performance on datasets with label noise (5% flip rate), outperforming XGBoost, LightGBM, and CatBoost on all metrics.
* **Numba JIT Compilation:** Achieves near C-level looping speeds while remaining a 100% pure Python package.
* **Scikit-Learn API:** Fully compatible with standard `fit()`, `predict()`, `predict_proba()` pipelines.
* **Zero Data Leakage:** Code audit verified — bin edges, class weights, and categorical encoding are computed strictly from training data.

## 📦 Installation

Install BSSCL-GBM via pip:

```bash
pip install bsscl-gbm
```

---

## 🚀 Quickstart

BSSCL-GBM operates exactly like any standard Scikit-Learn estimator.

```python
from sklearn.datasets import load_breast_cancer
from sklearn.model_selection import train_test_split
from bsscl_gbm import HybridHistGBMNumbaV2

# Load Data
X, y = load_breast_cancer(return_X_y=True)
X_train, X_test, y_train, y_test = train_test_split(X, y, test_size=0.2, random_state=42)

# Initialize and Train
model = HybridHistGBMNumbaV2(n_estimators=100, max_depth=6)
model.fit(X_train, y_train)

# Predict
preds = model.predict(X_test)
probs = model.predict_proba(X_test)
```

For highly imbalanced data (e.g., 99:1 split), simply enable the proprietary dampening mechanism:

```python
model = HybridHistGBMNumbaV2(class_weight='balanced_sqrt')
```

## 📊 Scientific Benchmarks (v1.0.1)

BSSCL-GBM has been rigorously benchmarked against XGBoost, LightGBM, and CatBoost across **8 diverse datasets** using a strict anti-leakage protocol (stratified split, scaler fitted on train only, 3 random seeds averaged). Every competitor was given its **best available auto-weighting** for maximum fairness.

### 1. Extreme Imbalance — Credit Card Fraud (284K rows, 99.8% / 0.2%)

| Metric | BSSCL-GBM | XGBoost | CatBoost | LightGBM |

| F1 Score | 0.835 | **0.847** | 0.827 | 0.077 |
| Brier Score | 0.000484 | **0.000465** | 0.000500 | 0.052 |

### 2. Noisy Labels — Overlapping Features (50K rows, 98/2, 5% label noise)

| Metric | BSSCL-GBM | XGBoost | CatBoost | LightGBM |
| :--- | :---: | :---: | :---: | :---: |
| F1 Score | **0.505** | 0.436 | 0.461 | 0.355 |

| Brier Score | **0.031** | 0.047 | 0.038 | 0.088 |

> *BSSCL-GBM wins **all 6 metrics** on noisy data — the `power=0.35` dampening is exceptionally noise-resistant.*

### 3. High-Dimensional Sparse (100K rows, 100 features, 99/1)

| Metric | BSSCL-GBM | XGBoost | CatBoost | LightGBM |
| :--- | :---: | :---: | :---: | :---: |
| ROC-AUC | **0.819** | 0.805 | 0.793 | 0.787 |
| PR-AUC | **0.494** | 0.425 | 0.363 | 0.342 |
| Brier Score | **0.011** | 0.013 | 0.014 | 0.042 |

### 4. Memory Efficiency (Peak RSS)

| Framework | Peak RAM Usage (1M Rows) |
| :--- | :--- |
| **BSSCL-GBM** | **989.59 MB** |
| XGBoost | 1,069.27 MB |
| LightGBM | 1,114.22 MB |
