تصحيحات الاختبارات المتعددة لاختيار العوامل والاستراتيجيات

الكود Machine Learning for Trading

الملخص

تشرح هذه المفكرة كيف يؤدي البحث عبر عوامل أو استراتيجيات كثيرة إلى تضخيم الأداء الظاهري للفائز المختار، حتى عندما تُحسب التقديرات الفردية على نحو صحيح. وتوضح مجموعة محاكاة من عوامل الضوضاء كيف قد يبدو أكبر معامل للمعلومات مثيرًا للإعجاب بمحض الصدفة. ثم تبني المفكرة مسارًا للتصحيح يستخدم الاستدلال المتين للتغاير غير المتجانس والارتباط الذاتي، يتبعه ضبط معدل الاكتشافات الكاذبة، وتناقش ضبط الخطأ العائلي لإجراء فرز أكثر تحفظًا.

وتعرض تعديلات تعقيد رادماخر لمتغيرات العوامل المترابطة؛ أما لاختيار الاستراتيجية بحسب نسبة شارب فتتناول نسبة شارب المعدلة، واحتمال فرط ملاءمة اختبار باك تست، والحد الأدنى لطول السجل. كما تعرض عتبة اكتشاف أشد اقتُرحت للعوامل الجديدة. وتعالج هذه الأساليب أسئلة وافتراضات مختلفة، لذا لا يمكن استبدال أحدها بآخر: يحد معدل الاكتشافات الكاذبة من الحصة المتوقعة للنتائج الكاذبة، بينما يستهدف الضبط العائلي احتمال وقوع أي نتيجة كاذبة. وتوضح المحاكاة والأمثلة آلية الاختيار، لكنها لا تثبت صلاحية أي إشارة تداول بعينها.

الأفكار الرئيسية

  • ينشأ انحياز الاختيار التصاعدي عند اختيار أكبر معامل معلومات أو نسبة شارب من بين تجارب عديدة.
  • يضبط إجراء بنجاميني–هوخبرغ النسبة المتوقعة للاكتشافات الكاذبة بين الاختبارات المرفوضة.
  • يستهدف إجراء هولم–بونفيروني احتمال الوصول إلى أي اكتشاف كاذب ضمن عائلة اختبارات.
  • يمكن لتعقيد رادماخر تصحيح الاستدلال عندما تكون فرضيات العوامل مترابطة.
  • تعالج نسبة شارب المعدلة واحتمال فرط ملاءمة باك تست والحد الأدنى لطول السجل جوانب مختلفة من اختيار الاستراتيجيات.

# # Multiple Testing and Selection Bias
#
# **Docker image**: `ml4t`
#
# **Chapter 7: Defining the Learning Task**
# **Section Reference**: 7.4 - Search Accounting and Multiple Testing
#
# ## Purpose
#
# This notebook addresses the **factor zoo problem**: when testing many signals,
# even with proper inference, the "best" will be inflated by selection bias.
# We cover FDR control and complexity-aware corrections.
#
# ## Learning Objectives
#
# 1. Understand why selecting the highest IC inflates the estimate
# 2. Apply Benjamini-Hochberg FDR for discovery control
# 3. Use Rademacher complexity (RAS) for correlated factors
# 4. Build a practical pipeline: HAC p-values → BH → discoveries
#
# ## The Factor Zoo Problem
#
# Harvey, Liu and Zhu (2016) counted several hundred factors published in the academic
# literature by 2015. Testing that many candidates at a conventional significance level
# means a double-digit number of false discoveries is the *expected* outcome even if not
# one of the factors is real - the arithmetic is the candidate count times the level, and
# it is printed later in this notebook against the parameters used here.
#
# Their recommendation is a materially stricter t-statistic threshold for declaring a new
# factor; the thresholds they propose are printed under **Harvey et al. (2016)
# Thresholds** below.
#
# ## Prerequisites
#
# - `06_ic_inference` - provides per-factor HAC inference whose p-values feed
#   the BH/Holm/Rademacher corrections here.
# - Familiarity with the family-wise error rate (FWER) and false discovery
#   rate (FDR), and with the Sharpe ratio's distribution under selection.

# The p-values below are HAC-adjusted rather than naive. The correction procedures that
# follow take p-values as given, so feeding them naive ones would leave the dependence
# problem from `06_ic_inference` untouched and simply carry it through the correction.
#
# Every HAC call on a synthetic panel passes `NON_OVERLAPPING`, because these panels draw
# each period independently and their labels therefore do not overlap. That is a claim
# about the data, and it is worth making explicitly: omitting the argument leaves the
# library to infer the bandwidth from sample size alone and to warn that it may be

# ## Rademacher Complexity (RAS)
#
# When factors are correlated, Rademacher complexity provides a sharper bound
# than assuming independence. The RAS (Rademacher Anti-Serum) adjustment
# accounts for the actual complexity of the hypothesis class.
#
# Key insight: Testing 100 variants of the same factor is less risky than
# testing 100 truly independent factors.

# %% [markdown] tags=[]
# ### Two scales, and why the distinction matters
#
# Rademacher complexity is estimated from a matrix of per-period performances, and
# **it comes out in whatever units that matrix is in**. Two different questions here
# need two different scales, and mixing them is a silent error:
#
# - *How correlated is this candidate set?* Compare $\hat{R}$ to Massart's bound
#   $\sqrt{2\log N / T}$. Massart bounds the maximum of $N$ **standardized** means,
#   so this comparison is only meaningful on standardized ICs.
# - *How much do I deduct from an observed IC?* The RAS bound
#   $\theta_N \ge \hat{\theta}_N - 2\hat{R} - 2\kappa\sqrt{\log(2/\delta)/T}$
#   subtracts $2\hat{R}$ from an IC, so here $\hat{R}$ must be in **IC units**.
#
# Standardizing divides each factor's column by its own **per-period** IC standard
# deviation - the dispersion of that factor's IC across dates, not the dispersion of
# the averaged ICs across factors. The two differ by more than an order of magnitude
# here, and the cell below prints both so the conversion is checkable rather than
# asserted. Feeding the standardized $\hat{R}$ into the adjustment would deduct a
# penalty many times larger than any IC in the set - the bound would reject
# everything, and would do so no matter what the data said.

# A ratio near one means the factors are nearly independent and the full multiple-testing
# penalty applies. A ratio well below one signals correlation among the candidates, so the
# effective hypothesis count is lower than the nominal count.
#
# The RAS penalty is an absolute deduction - twice the Rademacher average plus the
# estimation term - rather than a proportional shrinkage, so the cells below report both
# components and the resulting lower bound. Significance follows the library's own
# convention: an adjusted IC above zero.

# `kappa` is the bound the concentration (Hoeffding) term needs, and it bounds the
# *per-period* IC observations that get averaged - not the averaged IC. That is the same
# units confusion as the complexity term above, one term to the right, and it is easy to
# make because the averaged ICs are tiny: their magnitudes invite a small kappa, while a
# per-period Spearman IC is supported on the whole interval from minus one to one.
#
# **The reported bound uses the full Spearman support.** Hoeffding needs a bound fixed
# *before* the data is seen. The observed sample maximum is a function of the same sample
# the bound is being computed on, so substituting it does not give a conservative bound
# with a smaller constant - it gives no valid coverage guarantee at all, and the
# "significant" flag downstream would then mean nothing.
#
# The empirical maximum is computed too and shown beside it as a **sensitivity calculation
# only**: the size of the estimation term if one were willing to assume the observed range
# persists. No significance claim is read off that row. It is here because the gap between
# the two is the honest cost of a distribution-free bound on one year of data, and that
# cost is invisible if only one value is shown.

# All 100 factors are pure noise, and the RAS lower bound reflects that: no factor's
# conservative lower bound clears zero, though a good many show a positive raw IC by
# chance. The penalty is an absolute deduction in IC units, not a percentage haircut
# on each IC, and it has two parts. The data-snooping term $2\hat{R}$ is the price of
# having searched the candidate set at all; the estimation term
# $2\kappa\sqrt{\log(2/\delta)/T}$ is the price of a finite sample.
#
# Both terms are now on the IC scale, so their sizes can be compared and the
# comparison means something - read them off the table above rather than from here,
# because which one dominates is not a fixed fact about the method. It moves with
# $\kappa$, with $N$ and with $T$: the search term scales with the number and
# correlation of the candidates, the estimation term with $\kappa/\sqrt{T}$. On this
# panel - a distribution-free $\kappa$ and a single year of data - the finite sample
# is much the more expensive of the two. Lengthen the sample or widen the candidate
# set and that ordering changes.
#
# This paragraph has now been written wrong twice, in both directions, which is the
# argument for printing the components instead of narrating them: an ordering asserted in
# prose outlives the re-run that invalidates it.
#
# Read against the largest observed IC, the total deduction is many times that IC -
# enough to sink every candidate, which is correct, because every candidate here is noise
# by construction.
#
# The point of putting the complexity in IC units is that the comparison becomes a
# statement about the data at all. On the standardized scale the search penalty alone was
# an order of magnitude larger than the largest IC in the set, printed above, and it would
# have rejected everything whatever the ICs were. A bound that returns the same answer for
# every input is not measuring anything.

# ### Applied Example: ETF Feature Search
#
# The HAC call in the search below passes `label_horizon`, because the forward return is
# sampled daily over a multi-day window and this IC series is therefore overlapping.
# Without it the library picks the truncation from the sample size alone, which is the
# defect `06_ic_inference` corrects. The synthetic factor zoos earlier in this notebook
# draw their periods independently, so the automatic rule is right for those and only for
# those.
#
# The synthetic simulations above use known ground truth to verify the
# corrections work. Now we apply the same pipeline to real features on
# the ETF universe - the same data used in notebooks 05, 06, and 08.
#
# We compute 13 candidate features (momentum at 6 lookbacks, reversal
# at 3 horizons, realized volatility, and volume ratios) and test each
# for IC significance with HAC inference. After BH-FDR correction for
# 13 simultaneous tests, how many survive?

# **Every row above is on the annualized scale.** That matters more than it sounds: the
# library returns `sharpe_ratio`, `expected_max_sharpe` and `deflated_sharpe` per period
# and `sharpe_ratio_annualized` already annualized, so printing them in one column without
# converting puts a factor of the square root of the trading year between two adjacent
# rows. The comparison the table invites - the highest Sharpe against the null's expected
# maximum - is only meaningful once they are on the same scale.
#
# Read that way, the table above is stark. The highest-scoring of the pure-noise
# strategies posts a respectable annualized Sharpe, and the expected maximum *under the
# null* is barely below it. Almost the entire apparent performance is selection. What is
# left after deflation is a small excess, and the DSR probability falls well short of any
# conventional confidence level. `expected_max_sharpe` is the number that makes this
# legible: it says how good the highest-scoring strategy would look *even if none of them
# had any skill at all*.

# ## Probability of Backtest Overfitting (PBO)
#
# PBO (Bailey et al., 2017) estimates the probability that the strategy ranked first in
# sample lands in the bottom half out of sample. A PBO above one half is conventionally
# read as severe overfitting - with a caveat this notebook measures rather than states.
#
# The method uses combinatorial purged cross-validation (CPCV): split the data
# into S groups, choose half as in-sample, the rest as out-of-sample, and
# repeat across all $\binom{S}{S/2}$ combinations.
#
# Full implementation with CPCV splitting is covered in Chapter 16. Here we
# demonstrate the `compute_pbo()` function on pre-computed IS/OOS performance.

# The number to compare against here is **one half, not zero**. Strategy 0 was handed a
# large in-sample advantage and nothing else - out of sample it is the same standard normal
# as the other nineteen. So the strategy selected in sample is selected on noise, and its
# out-of-sample rank is uniform: it lands below the median about half the time. A PBO near
# one half is the *correct* reading of a selection that carries no real edge, and the
# median out-of-sample rank printed above - dead centre of the field - says the same thing
# a second way.
#
# This is why the "PBO above one half means severe overfitting" rule of thumb needs care.
# It is not a pass mark with a comfortable margin below it. A strategy whose edge is
# entirely an artifact of selection sits *at* one half, and the sampling error on a PBO
# estimated from this many combinations is wide enough that a point estimate somewhat
# below it is fully consistent with a strategy that has no edge at all. What would
# actually be reassuring is a PBO close to zero, together with a strategy that ranks
# first in sample and stays near the top of the out-of-sample ranking.
#
# PBO is a powerful complement to DSR. While DSR focuses on Sharpe inflation,
# PBO directly measures whether the in-sample best-performing configuration *degrades* out-of-sample.
# See Chapter 16 for applying PBO with actual CPCV backtest splits.

# **Interpretation**: read across a row, not down a column. Every row lengthens as the
# search widens, and the rows do not lengthen at the same rate.
#
# The lowest-Sharpe row already needs more than a decade of daily data with no search at
# all, and once even a handful of candidates have been tried it cannot be confirmed at any
# length - which is what `never` in the table means, the required record growing faster
# than the evidence a longer record supplies. The next higher Sharpe is confirmable in a
# couple of years unsearched, needs longer than a career after a handful of candidates,
# and reaches `never` after a hundred. Only the highest-Sharpe row stays inside a working
# career all the way across.
#
# The columns differ only because the trial Sharpes differ. That is the whole mechanism:
# the FWER correction prices the *search*, so a search over candidates that all score
# alike costs nothing while a search over dispersed candidates is expensive. A higher
# Sharpe buys back room, but the ordering across a row never reverses.
#
# This connects to NB06's track record planning for IC: both IC and Sharpe
# require longer records than practitioners typically assume.
