**GRU Dynamic Beta** is a Python library for estimating time-varying systematic risk (beta) using Gated Recurrent Unit neural networks within the CAPM framework.

## Key Features

-  **GRU-based estimation**: Captures complex temporal patterns in beta dynamics
-  **Walk-forward validation**: Prevents lookahead bias with proper out-of-sample testing
-  **Composite loss function**: Balances prediction accuracy, beta stability, and alpha sparsity
-  **Flexible input modes**: Use simple returns or full feature engineering
-  **Built-in evaluation**: Comprehensive metrics and benchmark comparisons
-  **Production-ready**: GPU support, model persistence, and extensive documentation

## Installation

### Basic Installation

```bash
pip install grubeta
```

### Full Installation (with technical analysis features)

```bash
pip install grubeta[full]
```

### Development Installation

```bash
git clone https://github.com/aslmylmz/grubeta.git
cd grubeta
pip install -e ".[dev]"
```

## Quick Start

### Simple Usage (Returns Only)

The simplest way to estimate dynamic beta using only stock and market returns:

```python
import pandas as pd
from grubeta import DynamicBeta

# Load your data
stock_returns = pd.read_csv('stock_data.csv')['return']
market_returns = pd.read_csv('market_data.csv')['return']

# Estimate dynamic beta
model = DynamicBeta(lookback=60)
results = model.fit_predict(stock_returns, market_returns)

# View results
print(results[['beta', 'alpha']].dropna().describe())

# Plot beta evolution
model.plot_beta(results, title='Dynamic Beta - AAPL')
```

### Advanced Usage (With Features)

For better results, use the full preprocessing pipeline:

```python
from grubeta import DynamicBeta, DataPreprocessor, FeatureConfig

# Configure feature engineering
config = FeatureConfig(
    include_technicals=True,
    include_macro=True,
    lag_features=True  # Critical for preventing lookahead bias
)

# Prepare features
preprocessor = DataPreprocessor(config)
features = preprocessor.prepare(
    stock_df=stock_ohlcv,    # OHLCV data
    market_df=market_ohlcv,  # Market index OHLCV
    macro_df=macro_data      # Macroeconomic indicators
)

# Estimate with features
model = DynamicBeta(
    lookback=90,
    lambda_beta=0.05,   # Beta stability weight
    lambda_alpha=0.5,   # Alpha sparsity weight
)
results = model.fit_predict(**features)
```

### Model Evaluation

```python
from grubeta import BetaEvaluator
from grubeta.utils import rolling_ols_beta

# Create evaluator
evaluator = BetaEvaluator(output_dir='./results')

# Compute benchmark
ols_beta = rolling_ols_beta(
    results['stock_return'], 
    results['market_return'],
    window=252
)

# Compare models
comparison = evaluator.compare_models(
    {
        'GRU': results['beta'].values,
        'Rolling OLS': ols_beta,
    },
    results['stock_return'].values,
    results['market_return'].values,
)
print(comparison)
```

## Architecture

The GRU Dynamic Beta model uses a dual-pathway architecture:

```
Market Features ──→ [GRU] ──→ Beta(t)
                              ↓
                    R_stock = α + β × R_market
                              ↑
Stock Features ──→ [GRU] ──→ Alpha(t)
```

### Loss Function

The composite loss balances three objectives:

1. **Accuracy**: Huber loss on return predictions
2. **Stability**: L2 penalty on beta changes (temporal smoothness)
3. **Sparsity**: L1 penalty on alpha (CAPM compliance)

```
L = L_accuracy + λ_β × L_stability + λ_α × L_sparsity
```

```

## Lookahead Bias Prevention

GRU Dynamic Beta implements strict lookahead bias prevention:

1. **Feature Lagging**: All features are lagged by 1 day (configurable)
2. **Walk-Forward Validation**: Model only sees historical data at each prediction point
3. **Expanding Window Scaling**: Scalers are refit on expanding historical data only
4. **Built-in Validation**: `validate_no_lookahead()` function to verify

```python
from grubeta.utils import validate_no_lookahead

# Check for lookahead bias
passed = validate_no_lookahead(
    results['beta'].values,
    results['stock_return'].values,
    results['market_return'].values,
    initial_size=500
)
# Output:
#   ✓ Beta correlation with return t+1: 0.023
#   ✓ Beta correlation with return t+5: 0.018
#   ✓ Beta correlation with return t+10: 0.012
#   ✓ Beta correlation with return t+20: 0.008
```

## Examples

### Portfolio Hedging

```python
from grubeta import DynamicBeta
from grubeta.utils import beta_to_hedge_ratio

# Estimate beta
model = DynamicBeta()
results = model.fit_predict(stock_returns, market_returns)

# Current beta
current_beta = results['beta'].iloc[-1]

# Calculate hedge ratio
stock_position = 100_000  # $100k position
spy_price = 450  # SPY price

hedge = beta_to_hedge_ratio(current_beta, stock_position, spy_price)
print(f"To hedge: short {hedge:.0f} shares of SPY")
```

### Multi-Asset Analysis

```python
from grubeta import DynamicBeta, BetaEvaluator

stocks = ['AAPL', 'GOOGL', 'MSFT', 'AMZN']
results = {}

model = DynamicBeta(lookback=60)

for stock in stocks:
    stock_ret = load_returns(stock)
    results[stock] = model.fit_predict(stock_ret, market_returns)
    
# Compare beta dynamics
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

fig, ax = plt.subplots(figsize=(12, 6))
for stock, res in results.items():
    ax.plot(res['date'], res['beta'], label=stock)
ax.legend()
ax.set_title('Dynamic Beta Comparison')
plt.show()
```
