The fastest way to see Avertix in action:

# Terminal 1 - Start Backend (with pre-generated data)
cd backend
pip install -r requirements.txt
uvicorn api.main:app --reload --port 8080

cd frontend
npm install
echo "VITE_API_BASE=http://localhost:8080" > .env
npm run dev

Then open http://localhost:5173 and create an account to explore!

If you want to regenerate all data and models from scratch:

• Python 3.8 or higher
• Node.js 16 or higher
• npm or yarn package manager

1. Navigate to the backend directory:

cd backend

2. Install Python dependencies:

pip install -r requirements.txt

3. Generate synthetic data:

python -m data.generate_retail
python -m data.generate_corporate

4. Generate features:

python -m features.cli --all

5. Train models:

python -m models.train

6. Start the API server:

uvicorn api.main:app --reload --port 8080

The API will be available at http://localhost:8080

1. Navigate to the frontend directory:

cd frontend

2. Install Node.js dependencies:

npm install

3. Create environment file:

echo "VITE_API_BASE=http://localhost:8080" > .env

The current implementation uses a lightweight client-side authentication system:

• SHA-256 password hashing with random salt
• Session storage in localStorage
• Protected route guards with React Router
• No backend database required for demo purposes

Note: For production deployment, implement a robust backend authentication system with JWT tokens, secure password storage, and user management.

Synthetic data is generated for demonstration:

• Retail: 1,000 customers with personal loans, credit cards, mortgages
• Corporate: 100 companies with business loans and trade relationships
• Realistic temporal patterns and default scenarios

Behavioral and transactional features are computed:

• Payment history analysis
• Utilization trends
• Delinquency patterns
• Industry-specific indicators
• Network-based features (for corporate)

LightGBM models are trained with:

• Chronological train/test split
• Class imbalance handling
• Hyperparameter tuning
• Cross-validation
• Feature importance analysis

Model explanations are generated:

• TreeExplainer for efficient computation
• Tree path-dependent feature perturbation
• Base value and contribution vectors stored
• Used for real-time explanation generation

The models achieve strong performance on synthetic data:

• Retail Model: ~85% AUC-ROC, ~78% precision at 50% recall
• Corporate Model: ~88% AUC-ROC, ~82% precision at 50% recall

Note: These metrics are on synthetic data. Real-world performance will vary based on actual data quality and distribution.

Problem: ModuleNotFoundError when running scripts

• Solution: Ensure you're in the backend directory and run with -m flag (e.g., python -m data.generate_retail)

Problem: Models not found when starting API

• Solution: Run the full data pipeline: generate data → generate features → train models

Problem: SHAP computation is slow

• Solution: This is normal for the first request. Results are cached for subsequent requests.

Problem: API calls failing with CORS errors

• Solution: Ensure backend is running on port 8080 and .env file has correct VITE_API_BASE

Problem: Charts not rendering

• Solution: Hard refresh the browser (Cmd+Shift+R on Mac, Ctrl+Shift+F5 on Windows)

Problem: Build errors with TypeScript

• Solution: Run npm install again and ensure TypeScript version is compatible

Problem: Empty or missing data files

• Solution: Re-run data generation scripts with --force flag if needed

Problem: Feature engineering fails

• Solution: Ensure data files exist in backend/data/artifacts/ before running feature generation
