Sliding Features

Modular, chainable sliding window with various signal processing functions and technical indicators including normalization. Values in window are updated with each call to update. A View defines the function which processes the incoming values and provides an output value. Views can easily be added by implementing the View Trait which requires two functions:

update(&mut self, val: f64): Call whenever you have a new value with which to update the View
last(&self) -> f64: Retrieve the last value from the View

There are two ways of creating a new View:

new(view: Box, window_len: usize): Use if you want to chain another view to be calculated first
new_final(window_len: usize): Use if this View will be the last in the chain The last View which in each chain is always Echo, as this just echos the current value. Some Views have additional parameters such as ALMA. They can be created using the new_custom() function.

A SlidingWindow can be used to hold multiple chained views, which hast the following function:

new(): Create a new SlidingWindow
register_view(&mut self, view: Box): add a chainable View
update(&mut self, val: f64): Update all Views with a new value
last(&self) -> Vec: Get all the latest values from each View

This struct allows you to manage a bunch of Views at once and conveniently update them all.

Usage

In your Cargo.toml add the crate:

sliding_features = "0.6.0"

Basic single View example

/// Example showing how to use a single View
extern crate time_series_generator;

use sliding_features::*;
use time_series_generator::generate_standard_normal;

fn main() {
    let mut rsi = RSI::new_final(14);

    // generate dummy values
    let vals = generate_standard_normal(1024, 100.0);
    for r in &vals {
        rsi.update(*r); // update the rsi computation with the newest value
        let last = rsi.last(); // get the latest rsi value
        println!("last rsi value: {:?}", last);
    }
}

cargo run --release --example basic_single_view

Basic Chainable Example

/// This Example provides a basic overview of chainable View definitions.
/// Assume you want to first transform your values with a Variance Stabilizing Centering Transform
//  and after that, smooth the values with an ALMA

// import the needed structs, and the View trait
use sliding_features::{View, ALMA, VSCT};

fn main() {
    // generate random value shifted up by 100.0 and scaled by 20.0,
    // a series which is neither centered around 0 nor variance stabilized
    let rands: Vec<f64> = (0..100)
        .map(|_| rand::random::<f64>() * 20.0 + 100.0)
        .collect();
    println!("rands: {:?}", rands);

    let window_len: usize = 20;
    let mut chain = ALMA::new(
        // first, define the last function which gets applied in the chain
        VSCT::new_final(window_len), // Make the first transformation in the chain a VSCT
        window_len,
    );
    for v in &rands {
        // the chain will first call the inner most view, which is Echo.
        // after that it will apply the VSCT transform
        // and finally apply an Arnaux Legoux moving average
        chain.update(*v);
        let last_value = chain.last();
        println!("transformed value: {}", last_value);
    }
}

cargo run --release --example basic_chainable_view

Multiple Sliding Features Example

/// Basic Example showing how to utilize a SlidingWindow to combine multiple chained views
use sliding_features::*;

fn main() {
    let mut sf = SlidingWindow::new();

    // lets register some of views, which will later be updated in a single step
    let window_len: usize = 16;
    sf.register_view(RSI::new_final(window_len));
    sf.register_view(ROC::new_final(window_len));
    // now a more complex view chain
    sf.register_view(ALMA::new(
        VSCT::new(SMA::new_final(window_len), window_len),
        window_len,
    ));

    // generate random dummy values
    let rands: Vec<f64> = (0..100)
        .map(|_| rand::random::<f64>() * 20.0 + 100.0)
        .collect();
    for r in &rands {
        sf.update(*r); // update all registered views with the newest value
        let last: Vec<f64> = sf.last(); // get the latest values from all views
        assert_eq!(last.len(), 3); // because there are 3 registered views we get three ordered values
        println!("last values: {:?}", last);
    }
}

Views

A View defines the function which processes value updates. They currently include:

Echo
Technical Indicators
- Center of Gravity
- Cyber Cycle
- Laguerre RSI
- Laguerre Filter
- ReFlex
- TrendFlex
- ROC
- RSI
- MyRSI (RSI in range [-1.0, 1.0])
- NET (John Ehlers noise elimination technology using kendall correlation)
- Correlation Trend Indicator (CTI)
- Polarized Fractal Efficiency
- Ehlers Fisher Transform
Normalization / variance / mean standardization
- HLNormalizer, a sliding high-low normalizer
- Variance Stabilizing Transform (VST)
- Variance Stabilizing Centering Transform (VSCT)
Moving Averages
- ALMA (Arnaux Legoux Moving Average)
- SMA (Simple Moving Average)
- EMA (Exponential Moving Average)
Standard deviation sliding window estimation using WelfordOnlineSliding
Multiplier
Entropy (acts on a bit stream, thus does not impl View trait)
