MoonDriftWatch 🚀

MoonDriftWatch is a high-performance, Wasm-native machine learning data drift monitoring and reporting suite built natively in MoonBit. Designed for modern MLOps pipelines and real-time inference monitoring, MoonDriftWatch detects population stability shifts, distribution concept drift, categorical proportion anomalies, and missing-rate degradations across baseline and production datasets.

🌟 Why MoonDriftWatch & MoonBit for MLOps?

In industrial machine learning, data drift (change in $P (X)$ over time) silently degrades model performance long before downstream business metrics reflect failure. Traditional monitoring tools in Python (e.g. Evidently, Alibi Detect) often incur significant overhead and dependency bloat when deployed alongside low-latency inference services.

MoonDriftWatch solves these challenges by leveraging MoonBit’s unique strengths:

⚡ Microsecond Execution Speed: Pure native mathematical algorithms compile directly to Wasm / Wasm-GC or Native binaries with zero interpreter overhead.
🛡️ Memory Safety & Sandbox Isolation: Run drift checks securely inside edge containers, serverless endpoints, or browser-based dashboards without security risks.
📦 Zero External Dependency Footprint: Self-contained mathematical and statistical routines implemented from scratch, ensuring deterministic builds and instant cold starts.

🧮 Core Statistical Algorithms & Metrics

MoonDriftWatch implements a comprehensive suite of statistical tests across three specialized packages (stats, metrics, reporter):

1. Population Stability Index (PSI)

Measures the shift in continuous distributions across binned intervals:

$\text{PSI} = \sum_{i=1}^{k} \left( P_{\text{target}, i} - P_{\text{reference}, i} \right) \cdot \ln\left( \frac{P_{\text{target}, i}}{P_{\text{reference}, i}} \right)$

Supports both Equal-Width and Quantile-Based (Equal-Frequency) discretization strategies.
Incorporates Laplace pseudo-count smoothing to prevent $\ln(0)$ division anomalies in zero-count bins.

2. Kolmogorov-Smirnov (KS) Test

Non-parametric test comparing empirical cumulative distribution functions (ECDF):

$D = \max_{x} |F_{\text{reference}}(x) - F_{\text{target}}(x)|$

Computes exact ECDF maximum drift location and asymptotic significance levels ( $\alpha = 0.05$ ).

3. Categorical Total Variation Distance (TVD) & Chi-Square Proxy

Monitors categorical feature proportion drift across unique labels:

$\text{TVD} = \frac{1}{2} \sum_{c \in C} |P_{\text{target}}(c) - P_{\text{reference}}(c)|$

4. Divergence & Moments Shift

Kullback-Leibler (KL) & Jensen-Shannon (JS) Divergence for symmetric probability metrics.
Welch’s t-test proxy statistic & Variance Ratios to detect mean shifts ( $Z$ -score equivalents).
Missing Data Degradation Rate tracking across continuous and string attributes.

💻 Library Usage Examples

1. Evaluating a Continuous Feature (PSI + KS)

fn main {
  // 1. Setup threshold configuration (or use ThresholdConfig::strict())
  let config = @metrics.ThresholdConfig::default()

  // 2. Prepare baseline (reference) and production (target) samples
  let reference : Array[Double] = [22.0, 25.0, 28.0, 31.0, 34.0, 37.0, 40.0, 45.0]
  let target : Array[Double] = [23.0, 25.0, 29.0, 32.0, 34.0, 38.0, 41.0, 44.0]

  // 3. Evaluate drift
  let report = @metrics.evaluate_continuous_feature("user_age", reference, target, config)

  println("Feature      : " + report.feature_name)
  println("Drift Grade  : " + report.grade.to_string())
  println("PSI Score    : " + report.primary_score.to_string())
  println("Alert Message: " + report.alert_message)
}

2. Multi-Feature Dataset Monitoring & Report Generation

fn main {
  let config = @metrics.ThresholdConfig::default()

  let r_age = @metrics.evaluate_continuous_feature("age", [20.0, 30.0, 40.0], [21.0, 31.0, 41.0], config)
  let r_pay = @metrics.evaluate_categorical_feature("method", ["Card", "Card", "Cash"], ["Crypto", "Crypto", "Cash"], config)

  // Summarize dataset health
  let summary = @metrics.summarize_dataset_drift("fraud_model_v1", [r_age, r_pay])

  // Export in multiple formats
  let markdown_table = @reporter.generate_markdown_report(summary)
  let json_telemetry = @reporter.generate_json_report(summary)
  let html_dashboard = @reporter.generate_html_report(summary)

  println(markdown_table)
}
