Overview

Step-by-step guides for common factrix workflows:

  • Raw data to a four-column factrix panel (sort order, frequency alignment, missing data)Preparing data
  • Picking the right metric for your research questionChoosing a metric
  • Data structure dispatch (PANEL ↔ TIMESERIES) and the n_assets == 1 special pathPanel vs timeseries
  • Reading EvaluationResult, MetricResult, and FDR resultsReading results
  • False Discovery Rate (FDR) control across a factor batch (BHY / partial conjunction / hierarchical)BHY FDR screening
  • Choosing evidence for allocation signals without turning factrix into a portfolio optimizerValidating allocation signals
  • Bounding peak memory when screening 100–1000+ factors (caller-side batched loop)Large-scale evaluation and memory protection
  • Slicing one metric by an attached label column (sector / regime / universe / ADV bucket)Slice analysis
  • Running every descriptive metric applicable to a cellStandalone metrics
  • Observability and DAG tracing (logger configuration and HTML rendering)Observability
  • Writing and registering custom metricsCustom metrics
