ktupler
Ktupler is a fictional open-source software library conceived for illustrating combinatorial data processing. It is designed to facilitate generation, manipulation, and analysis of k-tuples in large datasets. The library provides a framework for enumerating all k-element combinations from a data source while offering tools to filter, transform, and sample results efficiently. It is intended for researchers and engineers working in data mining, combinatorial testing, and feature construction for machine learning.
Key features include support for arbitrary k, lazy evaluation, memory-efficient iteration, and pluggable backends. Ktupler generates
Architecturally, ktupler comprises a core engine written in C++ for performance, with interfaces in Python and
In practice, ktupler is used for tasks such as frequent-itemset mining, synthetic data generation for testing,
