### Dataset Structure
|
| 210 |
|
| 211 |
+
HillStreet is divided into pre-built graph objects for deep learning, a relational tabular database accessed via Hugging Face configurations, and the source code used to build everything from the raw tables.
|
| 212 |
|
| 213 |
#### 1. Dynamic Graph Objects (`.pt` & `.npy`)
|
| 214 |
For immediate use in Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) and Temporal Graph Networks (TGNs), the core of HillStreet consists of annual **PyTorch Geometric Temporal** objects.
|
| 215 |
+
- **Graph Files:** `hillstreet_temporal_graph_YEAR.pt` — one annual shard per active year.
|
| 216 |
+
- **Temporal Integrity:** Every node feature and edge is instantiated based on its **public disclosure date**, not its reference date, ensuring a look-ahead-bias-free environment for backtesting. Structural edges additionally carry a `last_seen` timestamp (most recent interaction) alongside `t` (the start of the relationship), so recency/days-since features can be computed at load time.
|
| 217 |
+
- **ID Mappings:** `src_id_map.npy` (Legislator Bioguide IDs → row index) and `dst_id_map.npy` (Company Tickers → row index). These define the global node ordering the static node tensors are aligned to.
|
| 218 |
+
- **Node Features:** `node_features_static.pt` (the five static node tensors) plus `node_features_meta.json` (dimensions and categorical vocabularies). Produced by Phase 3 of the pipeline and aligned to the ID maps above. With the default configuration flags, legislator features combine a trading-performance summary, chamber/party/leadership indicators, DW-NOMINATE ideology coordinates (evaluated as of the snapshot date), and committee-membership indicators; company features encode the SIC industry division. Integer category indices for legislator **state** and company **sector**/**industry** are also provided for use as learned embeddings. Note that Census district employment enters the graph as **geo edge weights** (not node features), and SEC fiscal facts are shipped as a raw table that can be enabled as company node features via a configuration flag (off by default).
|
| 219 |
|
| 220 |
#### 2. Relational Tables (Hugging Face Configs)
|
| 221 |
For researchers using flat-feature models (XGBoost, LightGBM) or custom graph builders, the structural connective tissue is provided as multiple dataset configurations. You can load these individually using the Hugging Face `datasets` library (e.g., `load_dataset("benroodman/HillStreet", "processed_events_lobbying")`).
|
|
|
|
| 232 |
- **Corporate & Industry:** `raw_sec_financials`, `raw_naics_*` crosswalks, and `raw_district_industries_*` configs.
|
| 233 |
- **Lobbying:** `raw_lobbyview_*` configs.
|
| 234 |
|
| 235 |
+
#### 3. Source Code (`src/`)
|
| 236 |
+
The complete pipeline that turns the raw tables into the processed edge tables and graph objects is included as `src_*` configurations. The package is laid out as:
|
| 237 |
+
|
| 238 |
+
```

|

+
```
|
| 251 |
+
|
| 252 |
+
- **`config.py`** — Resolves the project root and centralizes every input/output path and the feature flags (which structural channels and node-feature blocks are enabled). The data-prep scripts import it via `from src import config`.
|
| 253 |
+
- **`build_lobbying_events.py`** — Maps lobbying clients to tickers (via NAICS→SIC→ticker crosswalks) and links them to sponsoring legislators, writing `data/processed/events_lobbying.csv`.
|
| 254 |
+
- **`build_campaign_events.py`** — Aggregates corporate PAC and 527 contributions above a conviction threshold, maps donors to legislators, and writes `data/processed/events_campaign_finance.csv`.
|
| 255 |
+
- **`build_geographical_edges.py`** — Builds industrial-constituency edges from Census County Business Patterns district data (top industries per district by employment), writing `data/processed/events_geographical_industry.csv`.
|
| 256 |
+
- **`temporal_data.py`** — The orchestrator. Ingests the trade table and the three processed event tables, broadcasts sector-level structural events to individual tickers, collapses repeated structural pairs into single weighted edges (keeping both first-seen `time` and `last_seen`), writes the per-channel edge parquets, and shards the unified edge stream into annual PyTorch Geometric `TemporalData` objects with global node-id maps. It then invokes Phase 3 to build the aligned static node tensors.
|
| 257 |
+
- **`node_features.py`** — Phase 3. Once `temporal_data.py` has written `src_id_map.npy` / `dst_id_map.npy`, `build_node_features()` assembles the five static node tensors (legislator features, legislator state embedding index, company features, company sector and industry embedding indices) **aligned to those maps**, saving `node_features_static.pt` and `node_features_meta.json`. It is called automatically by `temporal_data.py` (skip with `--skip_node_features`); it is not run standalone.
|
| 258 |
+
- **`feature_lookups.py`** — Helper module imported by `node_features.py`. Provides the as-of-date lookup classes (`TermLookup`, `PoliticianBioLookup`, `IdeologyLookup`, `CommitteeLookup`, `CompanySICLookup`, `CompanyFinancialsLookup`) that resolve a legislator's or company's attributes from the raw tables (congress terms, DW-NOMINATE ideology, committee assignments, company SIC, SEC financials) at a given snapshot date. It is not executed directly.
|
| 259 |
+
|
| 260 |
+
### Reproduction Pipeline
|
| 261 |
+
All commands are run from the repository root. The three builders are independent of one another and produce the processed event tables that `temporal_data.py` consumes; run them first, then the orchestrator:
|
| 262 |
+
|
| 263 |
+
```bash
|
| 264 |
+
# 1. Build the three processed structural-event tables (any order)
|
| 265 |
+
python src/data_prep/build_lobbying_events.py
|
| 266 |
+
python src/data_prep/build_campaign_events.py
|
| 267 |
+
python src/data_prep/build_geographical_edges.py
|
| 268 |
+
|
| 269 |
+
# 2. Build edge parquets, annual PyG shards, node-id maps, and aligned node features
|
| 270 |
+
# (Phase 3 node features run automatically at the end)
|
| 271 |
+
python src/temporal_data.py
|
| 272 |
+
```
|
| 273 |
+
|
| 274 |
+
`temporal_data.py` expects the trade table at `data/processed/ml_dataset_continuous.csv`. It does **not** call the three build scripts itself — it reads their CSV outputs — but it **does** invoke `node_features.py` (which imports `feature_lookups.py`) as its final phase, so both must be present.
|
| 275 |
+
|
| 276 |
### Feature Engineering & Normalization
|
| 277 |
To stabilize variance in graph training, continuous features are transformed using signed log-scaling:
|
| 278 |
$$x' = \text{sign}(x) \times \log(1 + |x|)$$
