+# Beacon Forecast — Adaptive Demand Forecaster with Drift Detection
+
+**Portfolio project 5 of 5** — a demo response to the "edge case breakage"
+problem retail forecasting faces: rigid models that assume tomorrow looks
+like yesterday break when a supply shock, economic shift, or extreme
+weather event changes the underlying demand pattern, causing over-stocking
+or shortages until someone notices and manually retrains.
+
+> ⚠️ **All data in this project is synthetic.** `data/sku_demand.csv` is
+> generated by `generate_synthetic_data.py`: 4 SKUs, 2 years of daily data,
+> with trend, weekly seasonality, and yearly seasonality. One SKU
+> (SKU-004-ELECTRONICS) has an injected supply-shock event at day 500 (a
+> sudden ~42% demand drop with a slow, partial 70-day recovery) to exercise
+> the drift-detection pipeline. No real Walmart, retailer, or sales data is
+> used.
+
+## Why this exists
+
+A forecaster that's accurate on stable historical data can still be
+dangerously wrong the week a real disruption hits, because it keeps
+predicting off stale assumptions until someone manually intervenes. This
+project closes that loop automatically: the pipeline watches its own
+forecast errors day by day, and the moment they drift from what's normal
+for that model, it retrains itself on the newest data window without
+waiting for a human to notice.
+
+## Architecture
+
+```
+daily SKU demand (synthetic, walked forward day by day)
+    |
+    v
+Forecaster                    <- forecasting/model.py
+    trend + weekly seasonality + yearly Fourier terms, fit with Ridge
+    regression (regularized to stay stable when retrained on short windows --
+    a real bug caught during testing: plain OLS produced wildly unstable
+    trend coefficients that exploded on extrapolation)
+    |
+    v
+One-step-ahead forecast, day by day
+    |
+    v
+Drift monitor                 <- forecasting/drift.py
+    every 5 days, z-test comparing the last 14 days of forecast error
+    against the baseline error distribution from right after the last
+    (re)training; a Kolmogorov-Smirnov test is also computed as a
+    secondary check on error *shape*, not just mean
+    |
+    v
+    |z| > 4.0 ? ---- no ----> keep current model, keep monitoring
+        |
+       yes
+        v
+    Automatic retrain on the most recent 120 days
+    <- stand-in for an Airflow DAG / AWS Lambda retrain trigger
+```
+
+## Try it
+
+```bash
+pip install -r requirements.txt
+streamlit run app.py
+```
+
+Pick a SKU in the sidebar. Three tabs: actual vs. forecast over the full
+2-year walk-forward simulation (with retrain events marked), the drift
+monitor's z-score history, and a log of every automatic retrain with its
+triggering statistics.
+
+Compare **SKU-004-ELECTRONICS** (has the injected shock) against any other
+SKU: the shock triggers a retrain within days, with a clearly larger
+z-score than routine periodic retrains. The other SKUs also retrain
+periodically as ordinary forecast staleness accumulates from a lightweight
+linear model — a legitimate, expected MLOps pattern, not just noise: even
+without an external shock, a simple model drifts stale over time and
+benefits from periodic refitting.

+## Production upgrade path
+
+| Demo component | Production equivalent |
+|---|---|
+| Trend + Fourier + Ridge regression | Prophet and/or a Temporal Fusion Transformer, per the original architecture brief |
+| In-process walk-forward loop | Apache Airflow scheduled runs, containerized with Docker |
+| z-test + KS-test on residuals | Evidently AI or Great Expectations for full data-drift reporting (feature drift, not just target/residual drift) |
+| Direct in-process retrain | AWS Lambda triggered by the drift-monitoring step, writing a new model version to a registry |

+Data-drift detection over the forecaster's residuals.
+
+Stand-in for the "MLOps drift-detection system using Evidently AI or Great
+Expectations" from the architecture brief: when the statistical
+distribution of real-world input data shifts beyond a threshold, this
+should trigger a retrain.
+
+The primary signal is a level-shift z-test: the recent residual window's
+mean is compared against the baseline residual window's mean, in units of
+the baseline's standard error. A sudden, sustained demand shock (like a
+supply-chain disruption) shows up as a large, persistent mean shift in the
+residuals -- exactly what a z-test on the mean is built to catch, and far
+less noisy at small sample sizes than a full-distribution test. A two-sample
+Kolmogorov-Smirnov test (scipy) is also computed and reported alongside, as
+a secondary check on distribution *shape* changes (e.g. increased
+variance) that a pure mean-shift test would miss.
