Description

This is the branch for experimenting with baseline modeling. We can use this PR space to show recent changes that have been made.

Note, we expect unit tests to fail here, as some rely on column names that we no longer use.

Test Steps

To test as a single-run model:

  1. Use the 'sub_zero_for_nan' elex-solver branch.
  2. Model params are: election_id = "2022-11-08_USA_G" office_id = "S_county" estimands = ["turnout","dem", "gop"] geographic_unit_type = "county" historical = False unexpected_units = 0 prediction_intervals = [0.9] percent_reporting_threshold = 100 percent_reporting = 20 features = ['race_white'] aggregates = ["unit", "postal_code"] fixed_effects = ["postal_code"]

To run with the testbed:

  1. Use the 'sub_zero_for_nan' elex-solver branch and the 'new_corr_data' (or main if new_corr_data has been merged already) testbed branch
  2. Testbed parameters are same as above, with agg-model turned OFF
