Add bootstrap_auroc: subject-clustered bootstrap CIs for AUROC - #210
Merged
Conversation
Every model/baseline AUROC this project reports is currently a bare point estimate. Motivated by a measured control failure: the tuned GBM never reads the value channel and scores the same held-out shards in every value-tail-transform arm, yet its own AUROC on the same cell moves up to ~2.9pp across arms (death@8h: 0.9452/0.9518/0.9229). Every "hazard beats GBM by 0.02" claim in the registry has been read against a point estimate that moves by about that much on its own. odyssey/inference/uncertainty.py: bootstrap_auroc(y, p, subject_ids, n_boot=1000, seed=0, alpha=0.05) -> Optional[BootstrapAUROC]. Resamples SUBJECTS with replacement (every one of a drawn subject's rows, whole), never rows independently -- landmark rows are many-per-subject and heavily correlated, so a row bootstrap would produce confident-looking intervals that are wrong. Returns None if the observed y is single-class; skips and counts (not silently drops) any resample whose drawn y is single-class, since AUROC is undefined for that resample. Performance: an initial version calling sklearn's roc_auc_score per resample re-sorted the full array every time (~16ms/call at 140k rows, several minutes for 1000 resamples x 12 cells). Rewritten to sort rows by subject and by p-value ONCE up front; each resample is then a vectorized index gather (numpy.repeat/cumulative-offset arithmetic, no per-subject Python loop) followed by a weighted Mann-Whitney U computation against the one precomputed p-sort (a resample only changes each original row's multiplicity, never the relative order of two distinct values). ~10x faster, ~20s for 1000 x 12 at 140k rows x 20k subjects, verified against sklearn's roc_auc_score directly in tests. Module docstring documents the distinction this is for: finite-sample variance (what this measures, from the held-out split being one draw) vs. refit variance (what the GBM spread above actually is -- no bootstrap of one fitted model's predictions can see refit variance; that needs k independent refits). Not wired into AlertMetrics or the alerts pipeline yet and does not change any existing reported number -- landed as a tested, standalone unit first.

…er ties+multiplicity The existing sklearn-agreement test only compared point_estimate at unit weights (the original data), never exercising the fast weighted-rank path's actual distinctive behavior: multiplicity greater than one (what every real resample produces) interacting with tied p-values. Real alerts columns are coarse (SurvivalPFN's vasopressor cells had 175 distinct probabilities across 111,450 rows), so a tie-weighting bug would surface as a plausible-looking wrong number on exactly the columns that most need characterizing, not as a crash. Added test_weighted_auroc_matches_sklearn_exactly_under_ties_and_multiplicity: 6 subjects with deliberate cross-subject and within-subject tie buckets, each bucket mixing y=0/y=1 labels on purpose (a uniform-label tie bucket would let a mid-rank bug cancel out silently). For several hand-picked subject draws, including two that draw a subject 2-3 times, materializes the resampled rows explicitly and asserts the module's weighted AUROC against sklearn's roc_auc_score on those same rows, to tight tolerance. Verified the test actually catches a tie-weighting bug (not just passing vacuously) by deliberately breaking the mid-rank formula and confirming the test fails, then reverting. Factored _group_p_ties(p) out of bootstrap_auroc's body so the test can exercise the exact same tie-grouping code path the module runs, rather than a parallel reimplementation that could silently diverge from it.
