When to Use
适用场景
- Frame a research question, null hypotheses, and falsifiable claims before touching data
- Source, license-check, and profile market or macro datasets (missingness, staleness, corporate actions)
- Run descriptive and inferential statistics with documented assumptions

- 结合清晰的经济直觉和可测试的预测,开展因子、信号或alpha研究

Core Workflows
核心工作流
1. Frame the research question
1. 构建研究问题
- State the decision or learning goal (not "find alpha" without a mechanism)
- Define population, horizon, and frequency (daily bars vs intraday changes methods)
- Pre-register primary statistic or metric; list secondary and robustness checks
- Document null and alternative; specify what evidence would reject the hypothesis
- List data requirements and known limitations upfront
See .
references/research_framing_and_data_quality.md- 明确决策或学习目标(不能仅为“寻找alpha”却无机制说明)
- 定义研究群体、时间范围和频率(日线数据与日内数据的方法差异)
- 预先登记主要统计量或指标;列出次要和稳健性检验项
- 记录原假设和备择假设;明确哪些证据会推翻假设
- 提前列出数据需求和已知局限性
参考 。
references/research_framing_and_data_quality.md2. Acquire and validate data
2. 获取并验证数据
- Record vendor, version, as-of rules, and adjustment policy (splits, dividends, total return)
- Profile: coverage, gaps, duplicates, timezone alignment, survivorship in universe files
- Run reconciliation spot checks against a second source where feasible
- Freeze a research snapshot (hash, date range, universe version) before analysis
See .
references/research_framing_and_data_quality.md- 记录供应商、版本、时点规则和调整策略(拆股、分红、总回报)
- 分析数据集特征:覆盖范围、缺口、重复项、时区对齐、投资组合文件中的生存偏差
- 尽可能与第二个数据源进行对账抽查
- 在分析前冻结研究快照(哈希值、日期范围、投资组合版本)
参考 。
references/research_framing_and_data_quality.md3. Explore and model (descriptive → inferential)
3. 探索与建模(描述性→推断性)
- Start with descriptive stats and visual diagnostics (distributions, outliers, breaks)
- Choose methods matched to dependence structure (i.i.d. vs time series vs panels)
- Report effect sizes, confidence intervals, and assumption checks—not p-values alone
- Run sensitivity to window, winsorization, and sample exclusions
See .
references/statistics_time_series_and_panels.md- 从描述性统计和可视化诊断(分布、异常值、断点)入手
- 根据依赖结构选择匹配方法(独立同分布 vs 时间序列 vs 面板数据)
- 报告效应量、置信区间和假设检验结果——而非仅提供p值
- 针对窗口大小、缩尾处理和样本排除进行敏感性分析
参考 。
references/statistics_time_series_and_panels.md4. Factors, signals, and backtests
4. 因子、信号与回测
- Tie each signal to an economic story and holding period
- Build signals with point-in-time inputs only; document lag and publication delay
- Backtest with transaction costs, capacity intuition, and turnover reporting
- Audit lookahead, survivorship, selection, and overfitting (multiple testing)
See .
references/factors_signals_and_backtesting.md- 将每个信号与经济逻辑和持有周期关联
- 仅使用时点化输入构建信号;记录滞后和发布延迟
- 结合交易成本、容量分析和换手率报告进行回测
- 核查前瞻偏差、生存偏差、选择偏差和过拟合(多重检验)
参考 。
references/factors_signals_and_backtesting.md5. Risk, robustness, and regimes
5. 风险、稳健性与市场状态
- Report volatility, drawdown, and tail metrics with window definitions
- Interpret Sharpe and related ratios with known limitations (non-normality, short samples)
- Segment by regime (vol, rates, liquidity) and run stress scenarios
- Compare in-sample vs out-of-sample and walk-forward where applicable
See .
references/risk_metrics_and_robustness.md- 报告波动率、回撤和尾部风险指标,并明确窗口定义
- 结合已知局限性(非正态分布、样本量小)解读Sharpe及相关比率
- 按市场状态(波动率、利率、流动性)划分区间,并开展压力场景测试
- 适用时对比样本内与样本外结果,进行滚动向前测试
参考 。
references/risk_metrics_and_robustness.md6. Deliver and document
6. 交付与文档
- Ship a reproducible artifact (notebook + pinned deps + data manifest)
- Include limitations, assumptions, and uncertainty language suitable for stakeholders
- Separate research findings from implementation or execution recommendations
- Archive parameters, random seeds, and version metadata
See .
references/research_deliverables_and_ethics.md- 交付可复现的成果(Notebook + 固定依赖版本 + 数据清单)
- 包含适合利益相关者阅读的局限性、假设前提和不确定性说明
- 将研究发现与落地实施或执行建议分开呈现
- 归档参数、随机种子和版本元数据
