Scope

Expose Rust-owned binomial quantiles, inclusive binomial count coverage, Type-7 percentiles, and Monte Carlo percentile rank intervals through the Python API. A rank interval returns observed order-statistic bounds and attained binomial coverage. It rejects requests whose count limits require order statistics outside the available draws.

This supplies the numeric API for the paper's bootstrap Monte Carlo audit. It does not implement the Andrews–Buchinsky (pdb, τ) replicate-number rule or certify the paper's bootstrap sample, convergence, or interval precision.

Current head and verification

Exact head: 520b6e7d58b2644b8b37a4a962dada2ecb5cd15d, based on protected main@6dd48140c1a267315c7ad1e63a55a47661449c4a.

The current code rejects oversized NumPy arrays before copying into Rust, handles an upper-tail count when 1 - alpha rounds to 1.0, and uses overflow-safe Type-7 interpolation for opposite-sign endpoints. The Python bindings import the NumPy array-length trait needed by the pre-copy check.

On macOS arm64 with project-local CPython 3.14, the exact head passed:

  • cargo test -p mlsirm-core bootstrap_mc --lib: 2 passed.
  • cargo check --manifest-path crates/fast-mlsirm-py/Cargo.toml: passed.
  • maturin develop --uv --release: compiled and installed the exact-head extension. Native file SHA-256: 9e420284f2eaf97bcbee137348bfefbf61384b5115c6345811571957c9d06b4a.
  • .venv/bin/python -m pytest -q tests/test_bootstrap_mc.py: 2 passed.
  • git diff --check: passed. Current worktree is clean.

Existing CodeRabbit inline threads are resolved. Hosted exact-head checks and independent approval remain required before merge. A local build does not authorize study numbers or an immutable release.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The change adds binomial quantile and interval-coverage calculations, linear percentiles, and Monte Carlo rank intervals to the core crate. It exposes these functions through the Python package and adds core and Python tests for results and input validation.

Changes

Bootstrap Monte Carlo diagnostics

Layer / File(s) Summary
Core diagnostic calculations
crates/mlsirm-core/src/bootstrap_mc.rs, crates/mlsirm-core/src/equating.rs, crates/mlsirm-core/src/lib.rs
The core crate adds binomial quantiles and inclusive interval coverage, Type-7 linear percentiles, and Monte Carlo rank intervals. It validates inputs and tests calculations, rank mapping, coverage, and errors.
Python bindings and exports
crates/fast-mlsirm-py/src/bootstrap_mc_bindings.rs, crates/fast-mlsirm-py/src/entrypoint.rs, crates/fast-mlsirm-py/src/lib.rs, python/fast_mlsirm/__init__.py, tests/test_bootstrap_mc.py
The Python bindings call the core functions, convert errors to ValueError, and return rank-interval results as a dictionary. The package exports all four functions, and Python tests check results and validation errors.

Priority: ➖ Normal

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to cb004

Large rejected inputs can consume substantial extra memory, and some valid diagnostic inputs return an error or a nonfinite result. Fix these paths before merging.

Security Architecture Review

Security architecture risk: 🔵 Low · up to cb004

The new functions accept caller-supplied numeric inputs, but the reviewed paths validate inputs and return computed results rather than accessing sensitive state. No material security issue was established. Deployment exposure and some downstream context remain unverified.

Retained concerns
No architecture-level concerns identified.

Security review details

Security Blast Radius

  • inferred — Python callers gain access to bounded numerical computation through the new exports. The supplied evidence does not establish remote exposure, tenant scope, or a privileged downstream use.

Trust Boundaries and Controls

  • observed — The binding passes caller inputs to core-owned validation and maps failures to Python value errors; the reviewed rank-interval path returns a computed dictionary rather than invoking a sensitive sink.

Hardening Proposals

  • proposed — If a service accepts untrusted requests for these functions, assess per-call compute budgets and reject oversized arrays before copying them in the Python binding.

🟡 Minor · Use overflow-safe interpolation for opposite-sign finite endpoints. · equating.rs:759

crates/mlsirm-core/src/equating.rs:759
🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Use overflow-safe interpolation for opposite-sign finite endpoints.

linear_percentile is publicly exported to Python and accepts finite draws. For [-1e308, 1e308] at p = 0.5, the current subtraction overflows to +∞, although the Type-7 result is 0.0. The existing NumPy assertion uses ordinary draws and does not cover this edge case.

Suggested fix
-        sorted[lo] + frac * (sorted[lo + 1] - sorted[lo])
+        (1.0 - frac) * sorted[lo] + frac * sorted[lo + 1]

Exact-head repair receipt for f045b00e2de7985817176102e1d443051d62cb7d.

  • Verified the three CodeRabbit findings against reviewed head cb0048c36b53deafea878b8aef9660d57ca3dea9 with failing boundary probes before changing production code.
  • RED 23e9586cb6521f8338d2200c931f2eb74b9fc9c0 adds contracts for pre-copy draw-count rejection, rounded-1.0 extreme-confidence rank selection, and opposite-sign Type-7 interpolation.
  • GREEN 2e25ec556014420894ffe5114e8b548599c1a406 adds the minimal Rust fixes.
  • Child f045b00e2de7985817176102e1d443051d62cb7d imports PyUntypedArrayMethods, the existing repository trait required for values.len().

Scope: 3 ordinary commits, 0 behind reviewed head, exactly 3 repair paths. The PR remains 5 ahead / 0 behind protected main and mergeable. Both inline threads are resolved; unresolved thread count is 0.

Local exact-source evidence: git diff --check PASS, Python test syntax PASS, and boundary probes PASS (pre-copy ordering, NumPy trait, upper-tail count 89, Type-7 midpoint 0.0). This environment has no cargo/rustc and no built native _core, so I do not claim local Rust compilation or pytest. Fresh exact-head CI/Security/CodeQL/SAST runs are queued or pending; Draft/Proposed is retained pending those gates and independent review.

New head fc4abbf491654619f96070ee4908304a2bfbc39f: an empty commit on top of 520b6e7d. The tree is unchanged (5fbb6e2d9f56ae3954ad01c566d2faccc45bc7da). It exists so the required Strix and OpenCode workflows run on the current .github gate definitions (#2518, #2523); this PR's previous strix and opencode-review results came from a run around 2026-09-26, before those fixes. This PR is now owned by the stage-B session under the late-life coordinator. #2190, which is stacked on this branch, will be retargeted to main after this merges.
