# RangeFlow 🌊
## *Certified Robustness & Uncertainty Quantification for AI*

**RangeFlow** is a revolutionary Python library for **interval arithmetic in AI systems**. It enables you to:
- ✅ **Certify** neural networks against adversarial attacks
- ✅ **Quantify** uncertainty in predictions mathematically
- ✅ **Train** models that are provably robust to noise
- ✅ **Verify** safety properties of AI systems

Unlike standard deep learning where you process single values, RangeFlow propagates **intervals** [min, max] through networks, giving you **mathematical guarantees** about worst-case behavior.

---

## 🌟 Why RangeFlow?

### The Problem

Standard AI models are **fragile**:
```python
# Standard model
model(image) → "Cat" (99% confident)

# Add tiny noise (invisible to humans)
model(image + 0.001 * noise) → "Dog" (98% confident)  # WRONG!
```

**Standard uncertainty metrics** (like softmax probabilities) are **overconfident and misleading**.

### The RangeFlow Solution

Treat every value as a **range of possibilities**:
```python
# RangeFlow model
x_robust = RangeTensor.from_epsilon_ball(image, epsilon=0.001)
y_range = model(x_robust)

# Get certified bounds
min_pred, max_pred = y_range.decay()

# Now you KNOW: "For ANY perturbation ≤ 0.001, prediction stays 'Cat'"
```

---

## 🎯 Who Should Use RangeFlow?

| **You Are** | **RangeFlow Helps You** |
|------------|------------------------|
| 🔬 **AI Safety Researcher** | Certify models can't be fooled within ε-ball |
| 🏭 **ML Engineer** | Deploy robust models in production |
| 🤖 **Robotics Engineer** | Handle sensor noise with guaranteed bounds |
| 📊 **Data Scientist** | Quantify uncertainty rigorously |
| 🎓 **Researcher** | Explore interval arithmetic for neural networks |
| 💊 **Medical AI Developer** | Get safety guarantees for critical applications |

---

## 🚀 Quick Start (5 Minutes)

### Installation

```bash
pip install rangeflow
```

For GPU acceleration (optional):
```bash
pip install cupy-cuda12x  # For CUDA 12.x
```

### Your First Robust Model

```python
import rangeflow as rf
import numpy as np

# 1. Create uncertain input (sensor noise ±0.1)
x = np.array([[1.0, 2.0, 3.0]])
x_range = rf.RangeTensor.from_epsilon_ball(x, epsilon=0.1)

# 2. Build a robust layer
from rangeflow.layers import RangeLinear
layer = RangeLinear(3, 1)

# 3. Forward pass propagates uncertainty
y_range = layer(x_range)

# 4. Get guaranteed output bounds
min_out, max_out = y_range.decay()

print(f"Output guaranteed in [{min_out}, {max_out}]")
print(f"Uncertainty width: {max_out - min_out}")
```

**That's it!** You now have **mathematically certified** bounds on your output.

---

## 📚 Core Concepts

### 1. **RangeTensor**: The Foundation

A `RangeTensor` represents an **interval** [min, max] of possible values:

```python
# Three ways to create ranges
x1 = rf.RangeTensor.from_range(1.0, 2.0)  # Explicit [1, 2]
x2 = rf.RangeTensor.from_epsilon_ball(5.0, 0.1)  # [4.9, 5.1]
x3 = rf.RangeTensor.from_array(np.array([3.0]))  # Degenerate [3, 3]
```

### 2. **Lazy Computation Graph**

Operations build a **symbolic graph** (like TensorFlow 1.x or JAX):

```python
x = rf.RangeTensor.from_range(1, 2)
y = rf.RangeTensor.from_range(3, 4)

# This doesn't compute yet - just builds graph!
z = (x + y) * 2

# Now compute actual bounds
min_z, max_z = z.decay()  # [8, 12]
```

**Why lazy?** Enables graph optimizations and memory efficiency.

### 3. **Flowing Conservative Decay (FCD)**

The core algorithm that computes tight bounds using **monotonicity shortcuts**:

```python
# For matrix multiplication: [A] @ [W]
# Instead of computing 2^N combinations, we use:
w_pos = max(W, 0)  # Positive weights
w_neg = min(W, 0)  # Negative weights

min_result = (min_A @ w_pos) + (max_A @ w_neg)
max_result = (max_A @ w_pos) + (min_A @ w_neg)
```

**Result:** Linear complexity instead of exponential!

### 4. **RangeNorm**: The Stabilizer

Deep networks cause **exponential uncertainty growth** ("The Balloon Effect"):

```python
Layer 1: width = 0.1
Layer 2: width = 0.5
Layer 3: width = 2.3
Layer 4: width = 11.8  # EXPLOSION!
```

**RangeLayerNorm** normalizes both **center AND width**:

```python
from rangeflow.layers import RangeLayerNorm

norm = RangeLayerNorm(128)
x_stable = norm(x_range)  # Width stays controlled!
```

---

## 🛠️ Features

```python
from rangeflow.rl import RangeDQN

agent = RangeDQN(state_dim=4, action_dim=2)

# Pessimistic (safe) action selection
safe_action = agent.select_safe_action(state, uncertainty=0.05)

# Optimistic (exploration) action selection
explore_action = agent.select_optimistic_action(state, uncertainty=0.05)
```

```python
from rangeflow.timeseries import RangeLSTMForecaster

forecaster = RangeLSTMForecaster(input_dim=10, hidden_dim=64)
forecast_range = forecaster(historical_data, uncertainty=0.1)

# Get prediction intervals
min_forecast, max_forecast = forecast_range.decay()
```

## 📖 Examples

### Example 1: Robust Image Classifier

```python
import torch
import rangeflow as rf
from rangeflow.layers import RangeConv2d, RangeLinear, RangeBatchNorm2d

class RobustCNN(torch.nn.Module):
    def __init__(self):
        super().__init__()
        self.conv1 = RangeConv2d(1, 32, 3, padding=1)
        self.bn1 = RangeBatchNorm2d(32)
        self.conv2 = RangeConv2d(32, 64, 3, padding=1)
        self.bn2 = RangeBatchNorm2d(64)
        self.fc = RangeLinear(64 * 7 * 7, 10)
    
    def forward(self, x):
        # x can be RangeTensor or regular tensor!
        x = self.conv1(x).relu()
        x = self.bn1(x)
        x = rf.ops.max_pool2d(x, 2)
        
        x = self.conv2(x).relu()
        x = self.bn2(x)
        x = rf.ops.max_pool2d(x, 2)
        
        x = x.flatten()
        return self.fc(x)

# Train robustly
model = RobustCNN()
optimizer = torch.optim.Adam(model.parameters())

for images, labels in train_loader:
    # Add adversarial perturbation range
    images_range = rf.RangeTensor.from_epsilon_ball(images, epsilon=0.3)
    
    # Forward with ranges
    output_range = model(images_range)
    
    # Robust loss
    loss = rf.loss.robust_cross_entropy(output_range, labels)
    
    loss.backward()
    optimizer.step()
```

### Example 2: Certifying Robustness

```python
from rangeflow.metrics import certified_accuracy, average_certified_radius

# Load trained model
model = load_model('robust_mnist.pth')

# Test certification
epsilon_values = [0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, 0.5]

for eps in epsilon_values:
    acc = certified_accuracy(model, test_loader, epsilon=eps)
    print(f"Certified accuracy at ε={eps}: {acc:.2%}")

# Compute average certified radius (ACR)
acr = average_certified_radius(model, test_loader, max_epsilon=1.0)
print(f"Average Certified Radius: {acr:.3f}")
```

### Example 3: Quantization Robustness

```python
from rangeflow.analysis import check_quantization_robustness

# Check if model survives int8 quantization
score = check_quantization_robustness(model, test_data, bits=8)

print(f"{score*100:.1f}% of predictions stable after quantization")

if score > 0.95:
    print("✅ Safe to quantize!")
else:
    print("⚠️ Quantization may break model")
```

## 🎓 Mathematical Foundations

### Interval Arithmetic Basics

**Standard arithmetic:**
```
x = 5, y = 3
x + y = 8  (single value)
```

**Range arithmetic:**
```
x ∈ [4, 6], y ∈ [2, 4]
x + y ∈ [6, 10]  (all possible sums)
```

### Core Operations

| **Operation** | **Formula** |
|--------------|-------------|
| Addition | [a,b] + [c,d] = [a+c, b+d] |
| Subtraction | [a,b] - [c,d] = [a-d, b-c] |
| Multiplication | [a,b] × [c,d] = [min(ac,ad,bc,bd), max(...)] |
| ReLU | ReLU([a,b]) = [max(0,a), max(0,b)] |
| Matrix Mul | Uses monotonicity shortcut (O(n³) not O(2ⁿn³)) |

### The Dependency Problem

**Problem:**
```python
x = [1, 2]
x - x = [1,2] - [1,2] = [-1, 1]  # WRONG! Should be [0,0]
```

**RangeFlow's Solution:**
- Track dependencies (same variable vs different variables)
- Use dimensional growth for independent operations
- Strategic decay when complexity explodes

### Key Properties

**len() - Uncertainty Width:**
```python
r = rf.RangeTensor.from_range(3, 7)
r.len()  # 4.0
```

**avg() - Center Point:**
```python
r.avg()  # 5.0
```

**Monitoring through layers:**
```python
widths = [layer_output.len() for layer_output in layer_outputs]
# Track if uncertainty is exploding!
```

## 🔬 Advanced Usage

### Custom Range Operations

```python
from rangeflow.core import RangeTensor, _op

class MyCustomLayer(rf.layers.RangeModule):
    def forward(self, x):
        # Custom operation
        y = _op("my_custom_op", x, param=value)
        return y

# Implement in ops.py
def evaluate_my_custom_op(node):
    min_x, max_x = node.parents[0]
    # Your interval arithmetic logic
    return min_result, max_result
```

### Visualization

```python
from rangeflow.visualize import plot_range_evolution, plot_uncertainty_map

# Track how ranges evolve through network
plot_range_evolution(model, input_range, layer_names)

# Visualize spatial uncertainty
uncertainty_map = compute_uncertainty_map(model, image_range)
plot_uncertainty_map(uncertainty_map)
```

### Multi-GPU Training

```python
import torch.distributed as dist

# RangeFlow works with PyTorch DDP!
model = RobustCNN()
model = torch.nn.parallel.DistributedDataParallel(model)

# Train normally with ranges
```
