date time format %Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S  to create line chart

Hi Pyxley Team ,
first of all congratulation for the Wonderfull framework . I have one query here if i would like to create a line chart given in example metricsgraphics  with date - time(x- axis) so what should be format of Date Column in the csv file for date - time(x axis) .
dateparse = lambda x: pd.datetime.strptime(x, '%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S')
df = pd.read_csv("fitbit_data.csv", parse_dates=['Date'], date_parser=dateparse)
sf = df.set_index("Date").stack().reset_index()
i have already tried but line charts failed with Date as  %Y-% m-%d %H:%M:%S. line charts only works well with date format as %Y-% m-%d .

Hi, another Pyxley user here. At Tamedia Digital (Zurich), the data science team is planning to use Pyxley for quick dashboard implementation. We'd love to see datetimes supported for line charts.

Another user who is using Pyxley and ran into this same issue. One should be allowed to specify the date format of the data.

I think the problem is that I'm casting a string to a Date. You should be able to format however you like, it just needs to be a string when it's transmitted to the javascript. I can probably force that in the default request function.

No. I tried string and it did not work. If I recall right the problem is
that the MG date formatting function that is called from d3 expects a
format and without a format passed it assumes a default of Y M and D. That
is my recollection when I tried to understand whats going on.
Thanks

Here's the javascript code that does the conversion.

https://github.com/stitchfix/pyxleyJS/blob/master/src/metricsgraphics.js

Right. On this line data.result[i] = MG.convert.date(data.result[i], "x"); is
called to convert Date. But because no format is passed it uses default
format of %Y-%m-%d
https://github.com/mozilla/metrics-graphics/wiki/Convenience-Functions
Converts a data object's values from strings to javascript Date objects
that can then be plotted. The function parses %Y-%m-%d-styled timestamps by
default. An optional third argument allows one to specify an alternative
style, per the formats defined here:
How do I as user of Pyxley override this behavior? (Sorry if I am missing
something obvious - I am not a Javascript expert).
Thanks for your help.

This worked for me:
for(var i = 0; i < data.length; i++) {
                    data[i] = MG.convert.date(data[i], 'date', '%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%SZ');
 }

My date in database looks like this: 2018-04-28T13:24:55Z


How to use runtimeCaching ? Can't cache API resquests

Here is my vite.config.js
export default defineConfig({
  build: {
    sourcemap: true, //@todo false in prod
  },
  plugins: [
    react(),
    svgrPlugin(),
    VitePWA({

        globPatterns: ['**/*.{js,jsx,css,html,png,svg,woff2,json}'],
        runtimeCaching: [
          {
            urlPattern: /\/api\/.*/,
            handler: 'StaleWhileRevalidate',
            method: 'GET',
            options: {
              cacheName: 'api-cache',
              expiration: {
                maxEntries: 10,
                maxAgeSeconds: 60 * 60 * 24 * 365, // <== 365 days
              },
              cacheableResponse: {
                statuses: [0, 200],
              },
            },
          },
        ],
      },
      devOptions: {
        enabled: true,
      },
      manifest: {
        name: 'AppName',
        short_name: 'AppName',
        description: 'App description',
        theme_color: '#ffffff',
        lang: 'fr',
        icons: [
          {
            src: '/manifestIcons/maskable_icon_x1024.png',
            sizes: '1024x1024',
            type: 'image/png',
            purpose: 'any maskable',
          },
        ],
      },
    }),
  ],
  css: {
    postcss: {
      plugins: [postcssNested],
    },
  },
  server: {
    port: 3000,
    open: true,
    host: true,
  },
});

I'm just trying to cache the call to my API ( /api/* )
But I've tried a lot of variations of this config (with or without registerType: autoUpdate and differents handlers for the runtimeCaching ( 'CacheFirst' | 'CacheOnly' | 'NetworkFirst' | 'NetworkOnly' | 'StaleWhileRevalidate' ) ... ) And none works
What am I doing wrong ? Do I need to run vite build && vite preview to see the working service worker ? Or 'just' with the developement version ( vite ) it should also work ?

Linked SO question (with more screens)

you need to add the api request to navigateFallbackDenylist  workbox option: check this issue https://github.com/vite-pwa/sveltekit/issues/65

Thanks for the fasts reply ... I've tried with :
VitePWA({
      strategies: 'generateSW',
      registerType: 'autoUpdate',
      workbox: {
        navigateFallbackDenylist: [/\/api\//],
        globPatterns: ['**/*.{js,jsx,css,html,png,svg,woff2,json}'],
        runtimeCaching: [
          {
            urlPattern: /\/api\//,
            handler: 'StaleWhileRevalidate',
            method: 'GET',
            options: {
              cacheName: 'api-cache',
              expiration: {
                maxEntries: 10,
                maxAgeSeconds: 60 * 60 * 24 * 365, // <== 365 days
              },
              cacheableResponse: {
                statuses: [0, 200],
              },
            },
          },
        ],
      },

And still can't have the cache "api-cache" 😔 only the workbox pre-cache :

workbox needs to create the cache, will not work on first request (cannot create the cache while intercepting the request), try hard page refresh: you will need to switch to custom sw (injectManifest) and warm the cache manually on install event.

Not sur to understand you 100% ... I've tried a lot of hard refreshs... Still no luck and the call to my api isn't event intercepted ! :

How can I use injectManifest and manual cache warming ? Do I need some custom code of only with vite.config.js I can achieve that ?
I'm always doing vite build + vite preview to test that out ... Is it mandatory or should it work with developement ? ( with npm start ( vite ) )

try adding mode: 'development' to pwa options and run build + preview, you will see some logs in the console

I had this mode once but seems to not changed anything, But I didn't have the chrome log level "all" !
I found the error then with a log : For some reason workbox won't cache cross origin if the regex doesn't match the full url ...
Didn't find it in the docs but in some SO comment
I've changed the configuration to :
VitePWA({
      strategies: 'generateSW',
      registerType: 'autoUpdate',
      mode: 'development',
      workbox: {
        globPatterns: ['**/*.{js,jsx,css,html,png,svg,woff2,json}'],
        runtimeCaching: [
          {
            urlPattern: new RegExp(`^${API_URL}\/.*`, 'i'),
            handler: 'StaleWhileRevalidate',
            method: 'GET',
            options: {
              cacheName: 'api-cache',
              expiration: {
                maxEntries: 10,
                maxAgeSeconds: 60 * 60 * 24 * 365, // <== 365 days
              },
              cacheableResponse: {
                statuses: [0, 200],
              },
            },
          },
        ],
      },

The navigateFallbackDenylist is not necessary !
Thanks anyways @userquin your help was very appreciated ♥

you can also use a callback, for example, to check in same origin, check he docs:
urlPattern: ({ url, sameOrigin }) => sameOrigin && url.pathname.match(/^\/api\//),

hello can you resolved？ Iam too same question.


use osm data for actual building height

Rather than a random building height, we can often pull real building height from OSM:

I found that the reallllly tall buildings looked a little too dominate in downtown areas, so I compressed their height a a bit.
Here's how it would look without that height compression - WDYT?:

Note that because this adds a field to Building, it requires re-importing map data.

I have all the data ready to upload. I can send you data/MANIFEST.txt and we can coordinate a push, or I can try adding a file to the PR branch.

I think you should be able to push to this branch. Give it a try!

I think you should be able to push to this branch. Give it a try!

For the sake of time, I just pushed a separate commit. I successfully pushed to https://github.com/dabreegster/abstreet/compare/michaelkirk-mkirk/building-height?expand=1, but it looks like I needed to clone your repo instead. I'll figure out this workflow eventually. >_<


fix: rate limit exceeded

Fixes #891
Description
This pull request hugely reduces the number of API calls during outcome details calculation from (M * E * 4) to 2.
Contains

The document with API usage comparison for gcloud and flank. This should be helpful for solving the problem from #891
Update google-api-services-toolresults to v1beta3-rev20200803-1.30.10 (necessary for solving #891)
Update google testing client to rev 20200804
New implementation (based on gcloud) for fetching outcome details which reduce API call usage to 2.

Drawback
Gcloud uses 2 different ways for fetching:

Based on environments. This is the primary way
Based on the steps. This is a secondary way.

The secondary way is used when the primary will fail due to incomplete data,
but it may not return info about flaky tests so it is broken IMO.
The same goes for implementation from current PR too, but I recommend to fix it in another pull request.
Actually flank is collecting all data necessary to cover outcome details during JUnitReport generation.
We can reuse this data to fix the broken secondary step but this will require some restructuration.
Additional insights
Flank's outcome details contain a summary result of test executions from all environments in the matrix scope.
In results, the number of tests visible in details is multiplied by devices number, this may be confusing.
The solution is explained in #983
Checklist

[x] Documented
[x] release_notes.md updated
[x] Old implementation removed

Two suggestions:
Update with exactly the API quota issue we're running into (probably Queries per 00 seconds per user)
Update with recommendation for how FTL can fix this on the server side

Handle arrays, functions, and custom string for replacement

Hi,
First, thank you for the lib, it has been very useful for some projects !
I had to edit it a little to make it fit to my needs, so I thought I could share it.
Here are the changes :

handles function values
displays the type of the pruned object instead of -pruned- : Object (pruned), Array (pruned), Function (pruned).
allows to pass a custom string replacement for pruned values

Here is an example :
var obj = {
  key1: "111",
  key2: {
    arrayValue: [1, 2, 3],
    intValue: 1,
    objectValue: {
      key: "val",
    }
  },
  key3: function() {
    return 'ok';
  }
}

var pruned = JSON.parse(prune(obj, 2, 50));

Before:
pruned = {
  key1: "111",
  key2: {
    arrayValue: "-pruned-",
    intValue: 1,
    objectValue: "-pruned-"
  }
}

After:
pruned = {
  key1: "111",
  key2: {
    arrayValue: "Array (pruned)",
    intValue: 1,
    objectValue: "Object (pruned)"
  },
  key3: "Function (pruned)"
}

Using a custom string:
var pruned = JSON.parse(prune(obj, 2, 50, '...'));

pruned = {
  key1: "111",
  key2: {
    arrayValue: "...",
    intValue: 1,
    objectValue: "..."
  },
  key3: "..."
}

Hi,
Having a custom string for pruned values seems useful but I don't understand what problems are solved by your two other changes.
Note: it might be easier to discuss this in the Javascript room of Miaou: https://dystroy.org/miaou/8

Following our discussion on Miaou, I've made a new branch.
See relevant documentation: https://github.com/Canop/JSON.prune/tree/custom-replacement#customization-replace-the--pruned--placeholder
Please review this branch and confirm it meets your needs.

That's exactly what I wanted ! It fits well to my needs.
Thanks again.

OK, I'll merge ASAP.

Two-Dimensional (2D) Hybrid Method: Expanding 2D Correlation Spectroscopy (2D-COS) for Time Series Analysis  Journal Title XX(X):1–6 ©The Author(s) 2016 Reprints and permission: sagepub.co.uk/journalsPermissions.nav DOI: 10.1177/ToBeAssigned www.sagepub.com/  SAGE  Andjelka B. Kova ˇ cevi ´ c  Abstract  We present a concise report on the ’2DHybrid’ method, an innovative extension of two-dimensional correlation spectroscopy (2D COS), tailored for quasar light curve analysis. Addressing the challenge of discerning periodic variations against the background of intrinsic ”red” noise fluctuations, this method employs cross-correlation of wavelet transform matrices to reveal distinct correlation patterns between underlaying oscillations, offering new insights into quasar dynamics.  Keywords  2D correlation spectroscopy, red noise, binary quasars  Introduction  Black holes, phenomena of extreme density and gravity from which even light cannot escape, are not only central to our understanding of the universe but also present unique challenges   and   opportunities   for   spectroscopic   analysis. These enigmatic objects vary in size, from stellar black holes formed from collapsing massive stars to supermassive black holes, millions of times heavier than our Sun, residing in the centers of almost every galaxy, including the Milky Way. A key phenomenon associated with supermassive black holes is the quasar (’quasi-stellar object’), which results from the interaction and accretion of matter around these black holes. Quasars, once mistaken for stars due to their intense brightness, are crucial for studying galactic dynamics and evolution. Spectroscopy, an integral tool in astrophysics, is invaluable for investigating these phenomena, particularly in analyzing the behavior and composition of matter around quasars.   Through   spectroscopic   analysis,   we   can   gain insights into the light emissions of quasars, which exhibit variability across the electromagnetic spectrum. A key area of interest in current research is the fate of black holes and the resultant quasars when galaxies collide and merge, forming binary systems (see Figure 1) whose complex dynamics are still not fully understood. Quasars exhibit variability across electromagnetic spectrum, a phenomenon where their brightness fluctuates over time. This variability ( X ( t ) ) is stochastic, such that their power spectrum density  Γ X   ( ν )   ∼ | ν | − α . It is often statistically modeled using a ’damped random walk’, a concept defined by an exponential covariance   matrix   that   behaves   as   a   random   walk   for short   time   scales   and   asymptotically   achieves   a   finite variability amplitude at long time scales. The advent of large-scale astronomical surveys has led to an unprecedented accumulation of quasar light curves — records of integrated flux measurements over time. These extensive datasets open new avenues for a systematic and detailed exploration of quasar variability, particullarly binary quasar candidates. In the advancing field of space-time physics, the signif- icance of electromagnetic indicators, particularly in zeroth order optical moments, is increasingly recognized for iden- tifying nearby binary quasar candidates. 1   Periodic variabil- ity, as indicated by magnetohydrodynamic simulations, has emerged as a key marker 2   for the presence of these elusive objects. Recent large time-domain surveys have identified  ∼   250   binary quasar candidates 3 , many of which are targeted for observation with next-generation interferometers. 4   The quasar emission resembles red noise, displaying fractal- like, self-similar patterns   *   across various time scales. 5,6  Searching for any coherent signal buried within the red noise and in combination with unfavorable sampling, confronts a significant challenge: the Fourier uncertainty principle. Anal- ogous to the Heisenberg principle in quantum mechanics, this principle in signal processing is known as the Gabor limit 7 , delineating the constraints on precisely measuring a signal’s instantaneous frequency. Time-frequency analysis has demonstrated that linear operators cannot breach this uncertainty bound, necessitating a nonlinear approach to overcome the Gabor limit. 8   In response, we have extended 2D Correlation spectroscopy 2DCOS,see 9–21   idea to the integrated spectrum of quasars over long time baselines, which is an innovative nonlinear methodology specifically designed to surpass the Gabor limit.   Our method involves principles of 2D COS: cross-correlating the wavelet trans- form of quasar integrated emissions, commonly referred to as light curves, to obtain a correlation plane of detected oscillations. These wavelet-based estimators, ideally suited for the spectrum analysis of stochastic processes, are effec- tive in handling non-stationary data. 22   Moreover, in spectral  University of Belgrade-Faculty of Mathematics, Department of Astron- omy, Studentski trg 16, 11000 Belgrade, Serbia Email<EMAIL_ADDRESS>∗ Self-similarity (or self-affinity) means that the reperesentation of stochastic signal   ( t, X ( t ))   remains statistically unchanged when the time axis and the amplitude are simultaneously scaled by some factor.

Here we report on the current progress of our method for nonlinear processing and analyzing quasar light curves, tailored for the large time domain astronomical survey Vera C. Rubin Legacy Survey of Space and Time. 24  Challenges in quasar periodicity mining  Understanding   the   periodicity   of   quasars   is   crucial   in astrophysics, particularly in the context of galaxy evolution and binary supermassive black hole (SMBH) systems. The initial   stages   of   galaxy   collisions   at   kiloparsec   scales, characterized by dual quasars each hosting an active SMBH, have been observed across various wavelengths. 25   However, detecting subparsec (with separations below 3.26 light years) binary quasars presents significant challenges due to the limitations in resolving such close separations. 25   These cosmic events often trigger substantial gas inflows to the central regions of galaxies, suggesting that binary quasars are likely enveloped in dense gas. This accretion process can lead to electromagnetic emissions from the SMBHs, allowing their indirect detection through interactions with the surrounding gas. 26   To detect sub-parsec binary quasars, astronomers primarily rely on two methods. Spectroscopy becomes   useful   when   significant   gas   surrounds   one   or both SMBHs, as shown in Figure 1. This surrounding gas produces broad emission lines, with the orbital motion of   the   SMBHs   manifesting   as   Doppler   shifts   in   these lines. 3   At   smaller   separations,   like   milli-parsecs   where broad emission lines are truncated, periodic fluctuations in the photometric light curves of quasars become key indicators.   These   fluctuations   might   originate   from   gas streams periodically accreting from a circumbinary disk onto the SMBHs, as illustrated in Figure 1, or from Doppler- boosted emissions due to the relativistic motion of gas around each SMBH. In such binary systems, the SMBHs can orbit at velocities up to a few percent of the speed of light. Periodic perturbations in the circumbinary disk can modulate the accretion rate, leading to observable variations in the light curve that typically align with the binary’s orbital period. This is especially true in binaries where the mass ratio of the smaller to larger mass component lies within the range   [0 . 05 , <   0 . 3   −   0 . 5] . Moreover, significant Doppler boost variability is expected, resulting in a coexistence of periodic accretion and relativistic Doppler boost effects. If Doppler boosting is dominant, the variability in the light curve would likely be smooth and quasi-sinusoidal. Interestingly, none of the identified binary candidates are close to their final coalescence, meaning that the observed periods in light curves remain constant over time. However, a recent study introduced the first system, J143016 + 230344 see 27 , exhibiting a rapidly decaying period, as evidenced in its optical and X-ray light curves. The period has shortened from approximately one year to one month within just three years. This diminishing period signal, termed the ’tick tock’ signal   S ( t ) , represents a damped sinusoid, characterized by  Figure 1.   Artistic rendition of a SMBBH system showcasing a triple disk structure at subparsec scales. This visualization is based on simulations by NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center/Scott Noble, available at   https: //svs.gsfc.nasa.gov/vis/a010000/a013000/ a013043/13043_SMBH_Simulation_1080.mp4 .Central to the image are the two black holes surrounded by a circumbinary disk that illustrates the dynamic gas transfer within the binary system and the formation of individual accretion disks encircling each black hole.  gradual reductions in both amplitude and frequency:  S ( t ) =   e − d a t   sin    2 π   t P 0 e d f   t    (1) where: •   t   is the time variable, •   d a   is the amplitude damping factor, •   d f   is the frequency damping factor, and •   P 0   is the initial period of the undamped signal. Therefore,   the   ’tick   tock’   signal   serves   as   a   proxy for understanding the complex dynamics associated with merging SMBHs within binary systems. Detecting periodic or damped periodic signals in quasar light curves, essential for identifying subparsec binary quasars, is accompanied with challenges. 3,25   The primary difficulty arises from the inherent nature of quasar emissions, which typically exhibit ’red noise’ or power law spectra ( 1 /f   processes, where   f   is frequency). This type of signal complicates the identification of true periodicity due to its stochastic and variable nature. Another significant challenge is the inherent limitations of current observational techniques. The periods of interest often exceed the timescales over which data have been collected, meaning that we cannot observe enough cycles to confirm periodicity definitively. Additionally, the data obtained from optical time-domain surveys are relatively sparse,   further   complicating   the   detection   of   periodic patterns. Given that quasars’ light curves typically exhibit red noise characteristics or power law spectra, wavelet- based estimators have been shown to correspond well to the analysis of such processes. 22   Wavelets can effectively handle the variability and nonstationary nature of quasar emissions, offering a promising approach for analyzing them.  2DHybrid Method: A Novel Approach in Quasar Periodicity Analysis  The periodogram serves as a tool to transform a one- dimensional signal from the time domain into the frequency domain. This transformation is particularly effective when dealing   with   stationary   frequency   spectra,   where   the  Prepared using   sagej.cls
Kovaˇ cevi´ c   3  frequencies present in the signal remain constant over time. However, in the context of quasar observations, this approach encounters limitations, as the signals we often observe are inherently non-stationary. Wavelet transforms, in contrast, offer a more nuanced conversion, turning a one-dimensional signal into a two-dimensional representation encompassing both time and frequency (or scale). Through scaleogram, we   can   glean   details   about   the   system’s   state-space, shedding light on its dynamic behaviors. Our ’2DHybrid’ method represents a novel approach in this area. Building upon the foundational work in two-dimensional correlation spectroscopy (2D COS) developed by Isao Noda 9–21 , the 2DHybrid method 28–32   effectively addresses the challenges posed   by   the   non-stationarity   of   quasar   light   curves. Furthermore, the versatility of this method extends beyond astrophysics, finding applications in detecting oscillatory patterns in remote sensing of the upper atmosphere through very low frequency waves. 33  Description of 2DHybrid method  Distinct from traditional Fourier methods, the 2DHybrid method   transforms   signals   from   the   one-dimensional time   domain   into   a   two-dimensional   domain   of   period correlations, using the cross-correlation of wavelet matrices. While our method is compatible with a variety of wavelet transforms, in this analysis, we specifically employ the Weighted Wavelet Z-transform (WWZ). 34   WWZ has been proven to be particularly effective in uncovering underlying periodicities in quasar light curves, making it an ideal choice for our purposes. The cross-correlation of wavelet transforms of two signals  x ( t )   and   y ( t )   is given by:  C ( a, b ) =  Z   ∞ −∞  W x ( a, b )   ·   W   ∗  y   ( a, b )   db   (2) where   W x ( a, b )   and   W y   ( a, b )   are the wavelet transforms of  x ( t )   and   y ( t )   respectively, at scale   a   and translation   b . Here,  W   ∗  y   ( a, b )   denotes the complex conjugate of   W y   ( a, b ) . The nonlinearity of this operation stems from the product of the coefficients and the integration over the translation parameter  b . Given the WWZ transform frequency ( f   ) and time ( τ   ) data, we can calculate when the Gabor limit is surpassed as  ˆ GL   = ∆ τ   ·   ∆ f <   1 4 π   (3) with   ∆ f i   =   f i +1   −   f i   and   ∆ f   =   1  m  P m − 1  i =1   ∆ f i , as well as  ∆ τ i   =   τ i +1   −   τ i   and   ∆ τ   =   1  n  P n − 1  i =1   ∆ τ i , where   m   and   n  are the number of frequency and time points, respectively. In this article, we demonstrate the robustness and versatility of the 2DHybrid method in detecting and characterizing periodic signals within quasar light curves, a capability we have previously established through various studies. 28–32  Specifically, we present two distinct test cases to showcase the   method’s   effectiveness.   The   first   test   case   involves injecting a controlled artificial sinusoidal pattern into a synthetic quasar light curve, simulating simple periodic variability. The second test case applies the method to an   observed   u-band   light   curve   data,   into   which   we introduce   a   ’tick   tock’   signal   -   a   representation   of   a damped   sinusoidal   pattern.   These   test   cases   effectively illustrate how the 2DHybrid method can discern and analyze both straightforward periodic and more complex damped sinusoidal variabilities in quasar emissions.  Results: test cases  In this section, we present two test cases that demonstrate the application and effectiveness of the 2DHybrid method. These cases include controlled simulations, where we have injected a known sinusoid signal into synthetic quasar light curve, as well as real-world scenarios involving u-band light curve data from a quasar combined with damped sinusoids. Each test case serves not only to illustrate the method’s capability in detecting and analyzing periodic signals but also to showcase its adaptability and robustness across different conditions and datasets  Test Case 1: Synthetic quasar light curve and simple sinusoid Signal  The first test case of application of 2D Hybird method is given in Figure 2. The top plot presents two synthetic time series datasets, labeled ’Signal x(t)’ and ’Signal y(t).’ These signals are composed of red noise, accounting for 70% of the signal, and a sinusoidal component constituting the remaining 30%. ’Signal x(t)’ is depicted by a dashed line, and ’Signal y(t)’ by a dotted line, with both incorporating a periodic signal at 2Hz. The second and third plots display the Weighted Wavelet Z-transform (WWZ) of ’Signal x(t)’ and ’Signal y(t),’ respectively. The grayscale intensity within these plots indicates the WWZ power, with brighter areas signifying greater power. The x-axis denotes time in arbitrary units, while the y-axis denotes frequency in Hz. The expected 2Hz signal is represented as bright spots or stripes, standing out against the background, owing to a sufficient signal-to-noise ratio. Red noise, however, tends to produce a smearing effect across the frequency domain in the WWZ power plot, potentially rendering peaks that signify the actual signal less distinct. The   bottom   plot   illustrates   the   cross-correlation   of the WWZ transforms of ’Signal x(t)’ and ’Signal y(t),’ as   shown   in   the   preceding   subplots,   expanded   on   a frequency-frequency plane. Here, the grayscale reflects the cross-correlation magnitude, with brighter areas indicating stronger correlations. Since red noise generally exhibits a lack of correlation between distinct signals, its influence is diminished in the cross-correlation plot, which facilitates a   more   unambiguous   identification   of   shared   periodic components. Contoured region on the cross-correlation map is a zone where the 2D Hybrid method attains an enhanced resolution, surpassing the conventional limits defined by the Gabor limit   1 / (4 π )   (see Eq. 3). These contours, calculated via a morphological closing operation, serve to not only delineate areas with significant periodic signal correlation but also to augment interpretability by amalgamating proximal patches into unified regions.   This visualization strategy enables the distinction of true periodicities emmersed in the red noise background, a particularly advantageous feature for the analysis of astronomical time series.

The colorbars for the WWZ transforms represent the WWZ power, while the colorbar for the 2D Hybrid method reflects the correlation between the detected oscillations.  notwithstanding   the   pervasive   red   noise,   validates   the efficacy of the 2D Hybrid method, as an extension fo 2D COS, in isolating signals from noisy astronomical data. Furthermore, the 2D Hybrid method, through 2D COS method   inherits   the   wavelet   transform’s   capability   for scaling and shifting based on the signal’s frequency content. Combined with the nonlinear nature of the cross-correlation process,   this   approach   is   inherently   nonlinear.   Such   a nonlinear methodology has the potential to furnish a more granular time-frequency analysis of the signals, thereby potentially overcoming the restrictions imposed by the Gabor uncertainty principle on linear analyses.  Test case 2: Artificial tick tock signal and real observed quasar light curve  The top panel of Figure 3 illustrates the artificial tick tock   signal   (see   Eq.1),   a   sine   wave   with   an   initial period of   P 0   = 1000   days, subject to damping in both amplitude and frequency with factors   d a   = 0 . 0002 , d f   = 0 . 0008 , respectively. This damping emulates the dissipative processes of merging two supermassive black holes that may occur in actual astrophysical settings. The signal was inserted into the observed u band light curve of quasar 1460382 from the LSST AGN Data Challenge database 35 , with a moderate signal to noise ratio   ∼   1 . 5 . The second panel shows the actual u-band light curve from a quasar, now with the tick tock signal embedded within it. The WWZ power spectrum of the modified light curve (third panel) exhibits the anticipated power enhancement corresponding to the tick tock signal’s period. Despite the red noise, which tends to smear the spectral features, the WWZ analysis successfully delineated the periodic signal, highlighting its power at different timescales. The fourth panel presents the mapping of the autocorre- lated WWZ power onto a period-period plane, which allowed for a visualization of the cross-correlation of the light curves’ periodic components. Crucially, we overlaid contours on this plane where the product of the time and frequency resolutions was smaller than the Gabor limit. This delin- eation is crucial as surpassing the Gabor limit implies that the observed periodicities within these regions are resolved with a precision beyond the conventional bounds set by linear time-frequency analysis methods. Consequently, these contours underscore the presence of potentially meaningful astrophysical signals. Notably, the brightest areas on the map correspond to the known parameters of the injected tick tock signal, validating our approach. The presence of these bright regions amidst the darker background confirms that the periodic signal has been effectively isolated from the noise. The WWZ power spectrum for a simple sinusoid shows a distinct bright stripe or area corresponding to the 2Hz period (see second and third plots in Figure 2, whereas the tick tock signal creates a more spread out or smeared power spectrum (third subplot in Figure 3) due to its changing characteristics. In the case of the simple sinusoid, the cross-correlation map would likely show a strong correlation peak at 2Hz, with less complexity in the contours (fourth subpanel in Figure 2. For the tick tock signal, the cross-correlation map displays off diagonal patterns, reflecting the signal’s complex damping nature (fourth subpanel in Figure 3).  Discussion and Summary  The two test cases presented effectively demonstrate the versatility of the 2DHybrid method in analyzing quasar light curves. Through these cases, we have shown how the method adeptly handles both simple sinusoidal signals and more complex, dynamically changing signals like the tick tock signal. The WWZ power spectrum of a simple sinusoid, as seen in the second and third plots of Figure 2, presents a distinct bright stripe or area corresponding to the 2Hz period. Here the smearing effect is attributed to the presence of the  Prepared using   sagej.cls

On the other hand, the tick tock signal, which simulates the characteristics of merging supermassive black holes, exhibits a more spread out or smeared power spectrum (as shown in the third subplot of Figure 3). These smearing effects are attributed to the red noise and signal’s damped nature in both amplitude and frequency, presenting a more challenging detection scenario. Interestingly, the cross-correlation maps of WWZ offer more precise localization of periodic signals. For the simple sinusoid, we observe a strong correlation peak at 2Hz with less complex contours (fourth subpanel of Figure 2), whereas the tick tock signal generates off-diagonal patterns on the map, reflecting its complex damping nature (fourth subpanel of Figure 3). These patterns are crucial in distinguishing the simple sinusoid signal of pre merging scenarios from those close to the merger, showcasing the 2DHybrid method’s nuanced detection capabilities. Overall, our analysis underscores the 2DHybrid method’s efficacy in extracting meaningful periodic signals from noisy datasets, a task of paramount importance in astrophysical research. The method not only excels in identifying clear-cut periodicities but also demonstrates its prowess in unraveling the complexities of dynamically evolving signals. This blend of precision and adaptability positions the 2DHybrid method as a valuable tool in the ongoing time domain study of quasars. Our   approach   signifies   an   innovative   integration   of wavelet transform and 2D COS, indicating its substantial potential for wider applications in spectroscopy, especially as wavelets have been increasingly used in spectral analysis, especially in chemical studies.

Two-Dimensional (2D) Hybrid Method: Expanding 2D Correlation Spectroscopy (2D-COS) for Time Series Analysis  Journal Title XX(X):1–6 ©The Author(s) 2016 Reprints and permission: sagepub.co.uk/journalsPermissions.nav DOI: 10.1177/ToBeAssigned www.sagepub.com/  SAGE  Andjelka B. Kova ˇ cevi ´ c  Abstract  We present a concise report on the ’2DHybrid’ method, an innovative extension of two-dimensional correlation spectroscopy (2D COS), tailored for quasar light curve analysis. Addressing the challenge of discerning periodic variations against the background of intrinsic ”red” noise fluctuations, this method employs cross-correlation of wavelet transform matrices to reveal distinct correlation patterns between underlaying oscillations, offering new insights into quasar dynamics.  Keywords  2D correlation spectroscopy, red noise, binary quasars  Introduction  Black holes, phenomena of extreme density and gravity from which even light cannot escape, are not only central to our understanding of the universe but also present unique challenges   and   opportunities   for   spectroscopic   analysis. These enigmatic objects vary in size, from stellar black holes formed from collapsing massive stars to supermassive black holes, millions of times heavier than our Sun, residing in the centers of almost every galaxy, including the Milky Way. A key phenomenon associated with supermassive black holes is the quasar (’quasi-stellar object’), which results from the interaction and accretion of matter around these black holes. Quasars, once mistaken for stars due to their intense brightness, are crucial for studying galactic dynamics and evolution. Spectroscopy, an integral tool in astrophysics, is invaluable for investigating these phenomena, particularly in analyzing the behavior and composition of matter around quasars.   Through   spectroscopic   analysis,   we   can   gain insights into the light emissions of quasars, which exhibit variability across the electromagnetic spectrum. A key area of interest in current research is the fate of black holes and the resultant quasars when galaxies collide and merge, forming binary systems (see Figure 1) whose complex dynamics are still not fully understood. Quasars exhibit variability across electromagnetic spectrum, a phenomenon where their brightness fluctuates over time. This variability ( X ( t ) ) is stochastic, such that their power spectrum density  Γ X   ( ν )   ∼ | ν | − α . It is often statistically modeled using a ’damped random walk’, a concept defined by an exponential covariance   matrix   that   behaves   as   a   random   walk   for short   time   scales   and   asymptotically   achieves   a   finite variability amplitude at long time scales. The advent of large-scale astronomical surveys has led to an unprecedented accumulation of quasar light curves — records of integrated flux measurements over time. These extensive datasets open new avenues for a systematic and detailed exploration of quasar variability, particullarly binary quasar candidates. In the advancing field of space-time physics, the signif- icance of electromagnetic indicators, particularly in zeroth order optical moments, is increasingly recognized for iden- tifying nearby binary quasar candidates. 1   Periodic variabil- ity, as indicated by magnetohydrodynamic simulations, has emerged as a key marker 2   for the presence of these elusive objects. Recent large time-domain surveys have identified  ∼   250   binary quasar candidates 3 , many of which are targeted for observation with next-generation interferometers. 4   The quasar emission resembles red noise, displaying fractal- like, self-similar patterns   *   across various time scales. 5,6  Searching for any coherent signal buried within the red noise and in combination with unfavorable sampling, confronts a significant challenge: the Fourier uncertainty principle. Anal- ogous to the Heisenberg principle in quantum mechanics, this principle in signal processing is known as the Gabor limit 7 , delineating the constraints on precisely measuring a signal’s instantaneous frequency. Time-frequency analysis has demonstrated that linear operators cannot breach this uncertainty bound, necessitating a nonlinear approach to overcome the Gabor limit. 8   In response, we have extended 2D Correlation spectroscopy 2DCOS,see 9–21   idea to the integrated spectrum of quasars over long time baselines, which is an innovative nonlinear methodology specifically designed to surpass the Gabor limit.   Our method involves principles of 2D COS: cross-correlating the wavelet trans- form of quasar integrated emissions, commonly referred to as light curves, to obtain a correlation plane of detected oscillations. These wavelet-based estimators, ideally suited for the spectrum analysis of stochastic processes, are effec- tive in handling non-stationary data. 22   Moreover, in spectral  University of Belgrade-Faculty of Mathematics, Department of Astron- omy, Studentski trg 16, 11000 Belgrade, Serbia Email<EMAIL_ADDRESS>∗ Self-similarity (or self-affinity) means that the reperesentation of stochastic signal   ( t, X ( t ))   remains statistically unchanged when the time axis and the amplitude are simultaneously scaled by some factor.

Here we report on the current progress of our method for nonlinear processing and analyzing quasar light curves, tailored for the large time domain astronomical survey Vera C. Rubin Legacy Survey of Space and Time. 24  Challenges in quasar periodicity mining  Understanding   the   periodicity   of   quasars   is   crucial   in astrophysics, particularly in the context of galaxy evolution and binary supermassive black hole (SMBH) systems. The initial   stages   of   galaxy   collisions   at   kiloparsec   scales, characterized by dual quasars each hosting an active SMBH, have been observed across various wavelengths. 25   However, detecting subparsec (with separations below 3.26 light years) binary quasars presents significant challenges due to the limitations in resolving such close separations. 25   These cosmic events often trigger substantial gas inflows to the central regions of galaxies, suggesting that binary quasars are likely enveloped in dense gas. This accretion process can lead to electromagnetic emissions from the SMBHs, allowing their indirect detection through interactions with the surrounding gas. 26   To detect sub-parsec binary quasars, astronomers primarily rely on two methods. Spectroscopy becomes   useful   when   significant   gas   surrounds   one   or both SMBHs, as shown in Figure 1. This surrounding gas produces broad emission lines, with the orbital motion of   the   SMBHs   manifesting   as   Doppler   shifts   in   these lines. 3   At   smaller   separations,   like   milli-parsecs   where broad emission lines are truncated, periodic fluctuations in the photometric light curves of quasars become key indicators.   These   fluctuations   might   originate   from   gas streams periodically accreting from a circumbinary disk onto the SMBHs, as illustrated in Figure 1, or from Doppler- boosted emissions due to the relativistic motion of gas around each SMBH. In such binary systems, the SMBHs can orbit at velocities up to a few percent of the speed of light. Periodic perturbations in the circumbinary disk can modulate the accretion rate, leading to observable variations in the light curve that typically align with the binary’s orbital period. This is especially true in binaries where the mass ratio of the smaller to larger mass component lies within the range   [0 . 05 , <   0 . 3   −   0 . 5] . Moreover, significant Doppler boost variability is expected, resulting in a coexistence of periodic accretion and relativistic Doppler boost effects. If Doppler boosting is dominant, the variability in the light curve would likely be smooth and quasi-sinusoidal. Interestingly, none of the identified binary candidates are close to their final coalescence, meaning that the observed periods in light curves remain constant over time. However, a recent study introduced the first system, J143016 + 230344 see 27 , exhibiting a rapidly decaying period, as evidenced in its optical and X-ray light curves. The period has shortened from approximately one year to one month within just three years. This diminishing period signal, termed the ’tick tock’ signal   S ( t ) , represents a damped sinusoid, characterized by  Figure 1.   Artistic rendition of a SMBBH system showcasing a triple disk structure at subparsec scales. This visualization is based on simulations by NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center/Scott Noble, available at   https: //svs.gsfc.nasa.gov/vis/a010000/a013000/ a013043/13043_SMBH_Simulation_1080.mp4 .Central to the image are the two black holes surrounded by a circumbinary disk that illustrates the dynamic gas transfer within the binary system and the formation of individual accretion disks encircling each black hole.  gradual reductions in both amplitude and frequency:  S ( t ) =   e − d a t   sin    2 π   t P 0 e d f   t    (1) where: •   t   is the time variable, •   d a   is the amplitude damping factor, •   d f   is the frequency damping factor, and •   P 0   is the initial period of the undamped signal. Therefore,   the   ’tick   tock’   signal   serves   as   a   proxy for understanding the complex dynamics associated with merging SMBHs within binary systems. Detecting periodic or damped periodic signals in quasar light curves, essential for identifying subparsec binary quasars, is accompanied with challenges. 3,25   The primary difficulty arises from the inherent nature of quasar emissions, which typically exhibit ’red noise’ or power law spectra ( 1 /f   processes, where   f   is frequency). This type of signal complicates the identification of true periodicity due to its stochastic and variable nature. Another significant challenge is the inherent limitations of current observational techniques. The periods of interest often exceed the timescales over which data have been collected, meaning that we cannot observe enough cycles to confirm periodicity definitively. Additionally, the data obtained from optical time-domain surveys are relatively sparse,   further   complicating   the   detection   of   periodic patterns. Given that quasars’ light curves typically exhibit red noise characteristics or power law spectra, wavelet- based estimators have been shown to correspond well to the analysis of such processes. 22   Wavelets can effectively handle the variability and nonstationary nature of quasar emissions, offering a promising approach for analyzing them.  2DHybrid Method: A Novel Approach in Quasar Periodicity Analysis  The periodogram serves as a tool to transform a one- dimensional signal from the time domain into the frequency domain. This transformation is particularly effective when dealing   with   stationary   frequency   spectra,   where   the  Prepared using   sagej.cls

However, in the context of quasar observations, this approach encounters limitations, as the signals we often observe are inherently non-stationary. Wavelet transforms, in contrast, offer a more nuanced conversion, turning a one-dimensional signal into a two-dimensional representation encompassing both time and frequency (or scale). Through scaleogram, we   can   glean   details   about   the   system’s   state-space, shedding light on its dynamic behaviors. Our ’2DHybrid’ method represents a novel approach in this area. Building upon the foundational work in two-dimensional correlation spectroscopy (2D COS) developed by Isao Noda 9–21 , the 2DHybrid method 28–32   effectively addresses the challenges posed   by   the   non-stationarity   of   quasar   light   curves. Furthermore, the versatility of this method extends beyond astrophysics, finding applications in detecting oscillatory patterns in remote sensing of the upper atmosphere through very low frequency waves. 33  Description of 2DHybrid method  Distinct from traditional Fourier methods, the 2DHybrid method   transforms   signals   from   the   one-dimensional time   domain   into   a   two-dimensional   domain   of   period correlations, using the cross-correlation of wavelet matrices. While our method is compatible with a variety of wavelet transforms, in this analysis, we specifically employ the Weighted Wavelet Z-transform (WWZ). 34   WWZ has been proven to be particularly effective in uncovering underlying periodicities in quasar light curves, making it an ideal choice for our purposes. The cross-correlation of wavelet transforms of two signals  x ( t )   and   y ( t )   is given by:  C ( a, b ) =  Z   ∞ −∞  W x ( a, b )   ·   W   ∗  y   ( a, b )   db   (2) where   W x ( a, b )   and   W y   ( a, b )   are the wavelet transforms of  x ( t )   and   y ( t )   respectively, at scale   a   and translation   b . Here,  W   ∗  y   ( a, b )   denotes the complex conjugate of   W y   ( a, b ) . The nonlinearity of this operation stems from the product of the coefficients and the integration over the translation parameter  b . Given the WWZ transform frequency ( f   ) and time ( τ   ) data, we can calculate when the Gabor limit is surpassed as  ˆ GL   = ∆ τ   ·   ∆ f <   1 4 π   (3) with   ∆ f i   =   f i +1   −   f i   and   ∆ f   =   1  m  P m − 1  i =1   ∆ f i , as well as  ∆ τ i   =   τ i +1   −   τ i   and   ∆ τ   =   1  n  P n − 1  i =1   ∆ τ i , where   m   and   n  are the number of frequency and time points, respectively. In this article, we demonstrate the robustness and versatility of the 2DHybrid method in detecting and characterizing periodic signals within quasar light curves, a capability we have previously established through various studies. 28–32  Specifically, we present two distinct test cases to showcase the   method’s   effectiveness.   The   first   test   case   involves injecting a controlled artificial sinusoidal pattern into a synthetic quasar light curve, simulating simple periodic variability. The second test case applies the method to an   observed   u-band   light   curve   data,   into   which   we introduce   a   ’tick   tock’   signal   -   a   representation   of   a damped   sinusoidal   pattern.   These   test   cases   effectively illustrate how the 2DHybrid method can discern and analyze both straightforward periodic and more complex damped sinusoidal variabilities in quasar emissions.  Results: test cases  In this section, we present two test cases that demonstrate the application and effectiveness of the 2DHybrid method. These cases include controlled simulations, where we have injected a known sinusoid signal into synthetic quasar light curve, as well as real-world scenarios involving u-band light curve data from a quasar combined with damped sinusoids. Each test case serves not only to illustrate the method’s capability in detecting and analyzing periodic signals but also to showcase its adaptability and robustness across different conditions and datasets  Test Case 1: Synthetic quasar light curve and simple sinusoid Signal  The first test case of application of 2D Hybird method is given in Figure 2. The top plot presents two synthetic time series datasets, labeled ’Signal x(t)’ and ’Signal y(t).’ These signals are composed of red noise, accounting for 70% of the signal, and a sinusoidal component constituting the remaining 30%. ’Signal x(t)’ is depicted by a dashed line, and ’Signal y(t)’ by a dotted line, with both incorporating a periodic signal at 2Hz. The second and third plots display the Weighted Wavelet Z-transform (WWZ) of ’Signal x(t)’ and ’Signal y(t),’ respectively. The grayscale intensity within these plots indicates the WWZ power, with brighter areas signifying greater power. The x-axis denotes time in arbitrary units, while the y-axis denotes frequency in Hz. The expected 2Hz signal is represented as bright spots or stripes, standing out against the background, owing to a sufficient signal-to-noise ratio. Red noise, however, tends to produce a smearing effect across the frequency domain in the WWZ power plot, potentially rendering peaks that signify the actual signal less distinct. The   bottom   plot   illustrates   the   cross-correlation   of the WWZ transforms of ’Signal x(t)’ and ’Signal y(t),’ as   shown   in   the   preceding   subplots,   expanded   on   a frequency-frequency plane. Here, the grayscale reflects the cross-correlation magnitude, with brighter areas indicating stronger correlations. Since red noise generally exhibits a lack of correlation between distinct signals, its influence is diminished in the cross-correlation plot, which facilitates a   more   unambiguous   identification   of   shared   periodic components. Contoured region on the cross-correlation map is a zone where the 2D Hybrid method attains an enhanced resolution, surpassing the conventional limits defined by the Gabor limit   1 / (4 π )   (see Eq. 3). These contours, calculated via a morphological closing operation, serve to not only delineate areas with significant periodic signal correlation but also to augment interpretability by amalgamating proximal patches into unified regions.   This visualization strategy enables the distinction of true periodicities emmersed in the red noise background, a particularly advantageous feature for the analysis of astronomical time series.

The colorbars for the WWZ transforms represent the WWZ power, while the colorbar for the 2D Hybrid method reflects the correlation between the detected oscillations.  notwithstanding   the   pervasive   red   noise,   validates   the efficacy of the 2D Hybrid method, as an extension fo 2D COS, in isolating signals from noisy astronomical data. Furthermore, the 2D Hybrid method, through 2D COS method   inherits   the   wavelet   transform’s   capability   for scaling and shifting based on the signal’s frequency content. Combined with the nonlinear nature of the cross-correlation process,   this   approach   is   inherently   nonlinear.   Such   a nonlinear methodology has the potential to furnish a more granular time-frequency analysis of the signals, thereby potentially overcoming the restrictions imposed by the Gabor uncertainty principle on linear analyses.  Test case 2: Artificial tick tock signal and real observed quasar light curve  The top panel of Figure 3 illustrates the artificial tick tock   signal   (see   Eq.1),   a   sine   wave   with   an   initial period of   P 0   = 1000   days, subject to damping in both amplitude and frequency with factors   d a   = 0 . 0002 , d f   = 0 . 0008 , respectively. This damping emulates the dissipative processes of merging two supermassive black holes that may occur in actual astrophysical settings. The signal was inserted into the observed u band light curve of quasar 1460382 from the LSST AGN Data Challenge database 35 , with a moderate signal to noise ratio   ∼   1 . 5 . The second panel shows the actual u-band light curve from a quasar, now with the tick tock signal embedded within it. The WWZ power spectrum of the modified light curve (third panel) exhibits the anticipated power enhancement corresponding to the tick tock signal’s period. Despite the red noise, which tends to smear the spectral features, the WWZ analysis successfully delineated the periodic signal, highlighting its power at different timescales. The fourth panel presents the mapping of the autocorre- lated WWZ power onto a period-period plane, which allowed for a visualization of the cross-correlation of the light curves’ periodic components. Crucially, we overlaid contours on this plane where the product of the time and frequency resolutions was smaller than the Gabor limit. This delin- eation is crucial as surpassing the Gabor limit implies that the observed periodicities within these regions are resolved with a precision beyond the conventional bounds set by linear time-frequency analysis methods. Consequently, these contours underscore the presence of potentially meaningful astrophysical signals. Notably, the brightest areas on the map correspond to the known parameters of the injected tick tock signal, validating our approach. The presence of these bright regions amidst the darker background confirms that the periodic signal has been effectively isolated from the noise. The WWZ power spectrum for a simple sinusoid shows a distinct bright stripe or area corresponding to the 2Hz period (see second and third plots in Figure 2, whereas the tick tock signal creates a more spread out or smeared power spectrum (third subplot in Figure 3) due to its changing characteristics. In the case of the simple sinusoid, the cross-correlation map would likely show a strong correlation peak at 2Hz, with less complexity in the contours (fourth subpanel in Figure 2. For the tick tock signal, the cross-correlation map displays off diagonal patterns, reflecting the signal’s complex damping nature (fourth subpanel in Figure 3).  Discussion and Summary  The two test cases presented effectively demonstrate the versatility of the 2DHybrid method in analyzing quasar light curves. Through these cases, we have shown how the method adeptly handles both simple sinusoidal signals and more complex, dynamically changing signals like the tick tock signal. The WWZ power spectrum of a simple sinusoid, as seen in the second and third plots of Figure 2, presents a distinct bright stripe or area corresponding to the 2Hz period. Here the smearing effect is attributed to the presence of the  Prepared using   sagej.cls

On the other hand, the tick tock signal, which simulates the characteristics of merging supermassive black holes, exhibits a more spread out or smeared power spectrum (as shown in the third subplot of Figure 3). These smearing effects are attributed to the red noise and signal’s damped nature in both amplitude and frequency, presenting a more challenging detection scenario. Interestingly, the cross-correlation maps of WWZ offer more precise localization of periodic signals. For the simple sinusoid, we observe a strong correlation peak at 2Hz with less complex contours (fourth subpanel of Figure 2), whereas the tick tock signal generates off-diagonal patterns on the map, reflecting its complex damping nature (fourth subpanel of Figure 3). These patterns are crucial in distinguishing the simple sinusoid signal of pre merging scenarios from those close to the merger, showcasing the 2DHybrid method’s nuanced detection capabilities. Overall, our analysis underscores the 2DHybrid method’s efficacy in extracting meaningful periodic signals from noisy datasets, a task of paramount importance in astrophysical research. The method not only excels in identifying clear-cut periodicities but also demonstrates its prowess in unraveling the complexities of dynamically evolving signals. This blend of precision and adaptability positions the 2DHybrid method as a valuable tool in the ongoing time domain study of quasars. Our   approach   signifies   an   innovative   integration   of wavelet transform and 2D COS, indicating its substantial potential for wider applications in spectroscopy, especially as wavelets have been increasingly used in spectral analysis, especially in chemical studies.

Use prediction_domain for all prediction methods

Currently, when the api is instantiated with a value for prediction_domain, that value is only used for calls to create_prediction, and not other prediction-like methods such as create_batch_prediction, create_centroid, create_anomaly_score, etc.
This PR changes the handlers for those methods to use the value for prediction_domain.

@mmerce: yes, it does

I don't think the predict server does batch predictions... does it? @sdesimone https://github.com/sdesimone ?

Oh, and only batch predictions? no batch anomaly scores, bathc centroids...?

It should do all of them (bugs apart)

Great, so we should change them too to be able to use this prediction_base_url too

Support pushing span/trace through to splunk HEC

I wanted to export spans to our splunk setup from the gateway but the way the chart is currently set up made it difficult to get all the pieces to match up (particularly port declarations across deployment/service/pods) without manually patching each one of them.
So this PR adds tracesIndex/tracesEnabled alongside metricsIndex/metricsEnabled etc so the traces are exported as expected.
Chart is working well in our environment.

Thank you for the contribution, we appreciate it.

Thanks, @mr-miles. There is no reason to not enable tracing for Splunk Platform destination

@dmitryax good spot!  I updated the agent config (we were running in
gateway mode hence not spotting it)

Fix issue #5890: Add an automatic check of version consistency in documentation

This pull request fixes #5890.
The issue has been successfully resolved. The AI agent implemented a complete solution that addresses all requirements from the original issue:

A version consistency checker script was created that uses regex to find all version references
The script was integrated into the CI pipeline via lint.yml
The solution automatically checks for version consistency across the codebase
It specifically looks for the requested patterns (openhands:0.XX and runtime:0.XX)
The implementation ensures only one unique version number is used
The CI pipeline will fail if inconsistencies are found, forcing developers to maintain version consistency

For a human reviewer, I would summarize the PR as:
"This PR implements an automated version consistency checker in the CI pipeline. It adds a Python script that scans the codebase for version references (openhands:0.XX and runtime:0.XX patterns) and ensures only one unique version is used throughout. The script is integrated into lint.yml as a new job 'check-version-consistency' that runs on all PRs and pushes to main. This will prevent version inconsistencies from being merged into the codebase."
The implementation is complete, functional, and meets all the original requirements while integrating smoothly into the existing CI workflow.

SimStore: Type identification

SimStore storable functions (CVs) no longer need to have result type provided. Instead, is it identified when the results are first saved. This changes some of the SimStore API, which is only relevant to anyone already using SimStore-based CVs (which are not only experimental, but not even in a release yet.)

This is ready for review and comment. I will leave it open for at least 48 hours, merging no earlier than Mon 30 Nov 13:00 GMT (14:00 local).

corrupt pdf

we are getting - E - The content stream contains an invalid operator. on one of pdf files any thoughts on where we can start to look for this type of corruption?
ln18.pdf

There are "NaN" instead of numbers...

@alafr is this a library issue or more likely a call to the api with "NaN" as one of the parameters?

I don't know but most probably a call with some parameter as NaN or anything other than a number where PDFKit expects a number...
PDF.js logs a lot of Warning: Unknown command "NaN" Warning: Skipping command 2: expected 1 args, but received 0 args.
The Command 2 in PDF.js appears to be the line width


Avoid dividing by 0

This is unlikely to happen in production, but in testing with a low export period, it can panic because anything%0 is a division by zero error.
