## ๐Ÿ“‹ Overview
This dataset contains **institutional-grade metrics** from the COINjecture Network B blockchain, which implements a novel **Proof-of-Useful-Work (PoUW)** consensus mechanism. Unlike traditional Proof-of-Work systems that compute arbitrary hashes, COINjecture miners solve genuine NP-complete computational problems, producing verifiable solutions with real-world applicability.

## ๐Ÿ”ฌ Problem Types
### SAT (Boolean Satisfiability)
The canonical NP-complete problem. Given a Boolean formula in CNF, find a satisfying assignment or prove none exists.
```json
{
"problem_type": "SAT",
"problem_instance": {
"num_variables": 50,
"num_clauses": 215,
"clauses": [[1, -3, 5], [-2, 4], ...]
},
"solution": {
"satisfiable": true,
"assignment": [true, false, true, ...]
}
}
```
### SubsetSum
Given a set of integers and a target sum, find a subset that sums to the target.
```json
{
"problem_type": "SubsetSum",
"problem_instance": {
"set": [3, 7, 1, 8, -2, 4],
"target": 12
},
"solution": {
"subset_indices": [1, 3, 5]
}
}
```
### TSP (Traveling Salesman Problem)
Find the shortest Hamiltonian cycle through all vertices in a weighted graph.
```json
{
"problem_type": "TSP",
"problem_instance": {
"num_cities": 20,
"distances": [[0, 10, 15], [10, 0, 20], ...]
},
"solution": {
"tour": [0, 3, 1, 4, 2, 0],
"total_distance": 97

## ๐Ÿ“– Usage
### Loading with Hugging Face Datasets
```python
from datasets import load_dataset
# Load the complete dataset
dataset = load_dataset("COINjecture/NP_Solutions_v2")
# Access records
for record in dataset["train"]:
print(f"Block {record['block_height']}: {record['problem_type']}")
print(f" Solve time: {record['solve_time_us']}ฮผs")
print(f" CPU: {record['cpu_model']}")
```
### Loading Raw JSONL
```python
import json
from pathlib import Path
records = []
for jsonl_file in Path("data").glob("*.jsonl"):
with open(jsonl_file) as f:
for line in f:
records.append(json.loads(line))
print(f"Loaded {len(records)} records")
```
### Filtering by Problem Type
```python
sat_problems = dataset["train"].filter(
lambda x: x["problem_type"] == "SAT"
)
print(f"SAT problems: {len(sat_problems)}")
```
### Performance Analysis Example
```python
import pandas as pd
# Convert to DataFrame for analysis
df = pd.DataFrame(dataset["train"])
# Analyze solve times by problem type
stats = df.groupby("problem_type")["solve_time_us"].agg(["mean", "std", "min", "max"])
print(stats)
# Hardware comparison
hardware_stats = df.groupby("cpu_model")["solve_time_us"].mean()
print(hardware_stats)
