============
Fully data-driven thesis figure generator.
Reads from (filenames are window-suffixed, e.g. "_w5", "_w7"):
models/history_{dataset}_w{window}.json β per-epoch training curves
models/threshold_{dataset}_w{window}.json β detection thresholds
results/evaluation_{dataset}_w{window}.json β model comparison metrics
results/active_learning_{dataset}_w{window}.json β AL iteration results
results/errors_{dataset}_w{window}.npy β real per-sample reconstruction errors
data/processed/y_test_{dataset}_w{window}.npy β label counts
Which window to load per dataset is set via WINDOW_BY_DATASET below.
Change it and re-run to compare results across different window sizes
without re-running the whole pipeline.
Dataset record counts (normal/attack totals) are fixed constants
from the original dataset papers β not model outputs.
