v0.1.0b1 - Beta Release

HashPrep v0.1.0b1 - Beta Release

This release marks HashPrep's graduation from alpha to beta status.

What's New

HashPrep is now feature-complete and ready for broader community testing. Core features are stable and the API is mature enough for real-world ML workflows.

Highlights

• 82 passing tests with comprehensive coverage across all features
• Stable APIs for both CLI and library usage
• Complete documentation with installation and usage guides
• Multiple report formats (HTML, PDF, Markdown, JSON)
• Production-ready code generation (fix scripts and sklearn pipelines)

Installation

pip install hashprep

Key Features

• Intelligent dataset profiling with ML-specific checks
• Automated data quality issue detection
• Context-aware preprocessing suggestions
• Rich report generation with modern themes
• Reproducible pipeline code generation

Documentation

See the README for complete usage instructions.

What Beta Means

• Core features are stable and tested
• APIs should remain stable (breaking changes will trigger major version bump)
• Ready for community testing and feedback
• Minor bugs and edge cases may still exist

We encourage users to test HashPrep in their ML workflows and report any issues on GitHub.

v0.1.0a1

Improved correlation checks and reduced false positives in missing patterns

Improvements

• Refined correlation checks in calculate_correlations
  • Fixed type inference errors by iterating over analyzer.column_types instead of analyzer.df
  • Updated mixed-variable thresholds to {'warning': 0.5, 'critical': 0.8} for consistency with Cramer’s V
  • Ensured seamless integration with run_checks
• Reduced over-flagging in missing patterns detection
  • Introduced effect size thresholds:
    • Categorical: Cramer’s V > 0.1
    • Numeric: Cohen’s d > 0.2
  • Tightened p-value threshold to 0.01
  • Increased minimum samples per group to 10
  • Replaced ANOVA (f_oneway) with Mann-Whitney U test for better handling of skewed distributions
  • Added pattern grouping to summarize correlations per missing column (top 3 shown for conciseness)

Fixes

Corrected correlation dictionary iteration (analyzer.column_types)
Prevented spurious warnings by filtering weak associations
