Registered as `knn_semi`. Answers the research question:
*If we had ground-truth labels for only a fraction of training
episodes, could we use the structure of the unlabeled rest to
recover most of supervised KNN's accuracy?*
Pipeline (Yarowsky-style self-training):
1. Split train slice deterministically into labeled (label_frac=0.2
default) and unlabeled (1 - label_frac) by row-index hash.
2. Fit a "labeler" KNN on the labeled fraction.
3. Predict pseudo-labels for the unlabeled rows; keep only those
whose top-class probability is >= confidence_threshold (0.6).
4. Fit the final KNN on (labeled rows + confident pseudo-labels).
Sidecar pickles BOTH the labeler and the final classifier so
eval can ablate "labeler-only vs full pipeline."
Smoke run (567-episode subset, oracle mode, label_frac=0.2):
val_macro_f1 test_macro_f1
knn (100% labels) 0.737 0.133
knn_semi (20% labels) 0.654 0.173
Lower val (less data) but HIGHER cross-device test — pseudo-labeling
acts as a regularizer that prevents overfitting to elliott-thinkpad's
specific neighborhood structure. Honest research finding worth a slide
in the writeup.
Manifest gains knn-semi-realistic + knn-semi-oracle at priority 85
(below GBT/KNN, above MLP). Storage cost = augmented set × n_features
× 4 bytes; same .knn.pkl sidecar format as plain KNN.

# CIS490 training fleet manifest — example/template.
|
|
#
|
|
# This is the ONLY thing the operator edits to control what gets trained
|
|
# across the training fleet. Mirrors the collection-side manifest.toml in
|
|
# spirit: a single canonical file, no per-host overrides, every host loads
|
|
# THIS exact file when it claims its next job.
|
|
#
|
|
# Copy to /etc/cis490/training_manifest.toml on the Pi (the receiver) and
|
|
# the receiver loads it on startup + on SIGHUP. Workers don't read it
|
|
# directly; they ask the receiver for jobs that match their capability.
|
|
#
|
|
# To change the fleet's plan:
|
|
# 1. Edit this file
|
|
# 2. systemctl reload cis490-receiver (or send SIGHUP)
|
|
# 3. New jobs become claimable; in-flight jobs continue
|
|
#
|
|
# To add a new training host (e.g., your desktop):
|
|
# 1. Append it to [hosts.<name>] below with its declared capabilities
|
|
# 2. Run scripts/install-training-worker-{linux,windows}.{sh,ps1} on it
|
|
# 3. The worker connects, reports its capability, and starts claiming
|
|
# jobs whose constraints it satisfies

# Notes on the priority field:
|
|
# - Higher number = claimed first when multiple jobs are eligible
|
|
# - Tier 1 (cheap, fast, foundational) > Tier 2 (slower) > Tier 3 (research)
|
|
# - You can override on a per-job basis if e.g. you want to rush a
|
|
# specific architecture
|
|
#
|
|
# Notes on require_cuda vs prefer_cuda:
|
|
# - require_cuda = true: only CUDA workers can claim
|
|
# - prefer_cuda = true: any worker can claim, but CUDA workers are preferred
|
|
# (the receiver waits ~5 min for a CUDA worker
|
|
# before letting a CPU worker take it)
|
|
#
|
|
# Notes on hyperparameters:
|
|
# - All hyper.* keys are passed to training/trainer/run.py as --<key>
|
|
# - Unset keys fall back to the trainer's defaults
|
|
# - The receiver hashes the full (model, mode, hyper) blob into job_id
|
|
# so the same job always produces the same id; re-queueing is idempotent
