## Data
#### Collection for On-chain Data
We collect the data through BigQuery, and the code we used is in [Query](https://huggingface.co/datasets/dkublockchain/FinML_Chain/blob/main/data/DataQuery.txt)
[Code for querying data](./data/DataQuery.txt)
You can also refer to [BigQuery](https://console.cloud.google.com/bigquery?p=bigquery-public-data&d=crypto_ethereum_classic&page=dataset&project=psyched-service-412017&ws=!1m9!1m4!4m3!1sbigquery-public-data!2sethereum_blockchain!3slive_blocks!1m3!3m2!1sbigquery-public-data!2scrypto_ethereum_classic&pli=1) for more information.

### Monotonicity Two-step training loss (normal training and monotonic training)
We utilized the NAM model due to its inherent transparency characteristic and the ability to isolate variables, facilitating the imposition of monotonicity constraints on specific features. The model is trained on data from two distinct periods, achieving weak pairwise monotonicity over the $\alpha$ feature. In the first step, standard training is conducted to enable the model to learn from the data. In the second step, we impose monotonic constraints.

### Sentiment (Combination of Off-chain and On-chain)
We further explore the NAM model at k=1,2 and 3. Given the availability of both on-chain and off-chain variables, we conducted tests to determine whether the inclusion of off-chain variables, specifically sentiment analysis, enhances the model's predictability.

<p>The notation "OC" refers to On-chain variables, while "HS" and "DS" denote Hourly Averaged Sentiment and Daily Averaged Sentiment, respectively. The ‘+’ symbol indicates the inclusion of a variable in the model, whereas the ‘-’ symbol denotes its exclusion. The numerical values represent the mean square error (MSE) of the model on the test dataset.</p>
