Add real-time feature store with drift detection for streaming market data
f4f7976 verified
"""Real-Time Feature Store with Drift Detection
Jane Street processes millions of features per second.
They NEED:
1. Low-latency feature computation (microseconds)
2. Drift detection (features go stale)
3. Feature importance tracking (which features still matter)
4. A/B feature testing (does new feature improve prediction?)
5. Feature versioning (reproduce any historical prediction)
This module implements:
- Streaming feature computation
- Statistical drift detection (KS test, PSI, Wasserstein)
- Feature importance monitoring
- Feature cache with TTL
- Online feature importance (not just offline SHAP)
