rill-ml 0.7.1

//! Online model selector with cooling period and minimum sample requirements.
//!
//! Wraps a [`BaselineComparator`] with additional constraints to prevent
//! frequent model switching:
//!
//! - **Cooling period**: after a switch, no new switch is allowed for a
//!   configurable number of samples recorded on the current best model.
//! - **Minimum samples**: a model must have at least a configurable number of
//!   recorded samples before it can be selected as the best.
//!
//! Space complexity: `O(n * window_size)` where `n` is the number of models.
//!
//! # Examples
//!
//! ```
//! use rill_ml::diagnostics::{OnlineModelSelector, SelectorConfig};
//!
//! let config = SelectorConfig::default();
//! let mut selector = OnlineModelSelector::new(&["model_a", "model_b"], config).unwrap();
//!
//! for _ in 0..20 {
//!     let truth = 1.0;
//!     selector.record(0, truth, truth + 1.0).unwrap();
//!     selector.record(1, truth, truth + 0.5).unwrap();
//! }
//!
//! let best = selector.select();
//! assert_eq!(best, Some(1));
//! ```
