+# Hypogenic
+
+## Overview
+
+Hypogenic provides automated hypothesis generation and testing using large language models to accelerate scientific discovery. The framework supports three approaches: HypoGeniC (data-driven hypothesis generation), HypoRefine (synergistic literature and data integration), and Union methods (mechanistic combination of literature and data-driven hypotheses).
+
+## Quick Start
+
+Get started with Hypogenic in minutes:
+
+```bash
+# Install the package
+uv pip install hypogenic
+
+# Clone example datasets
+git clone https://github.com/ChicagoHAI/HypoGeniC-datasets.git ./data
+
+# Run basic hypothesis generation
+hypogenic_generation --config ./data/your_task/config.yaml --method hypogenic --num_hypotheses 20
+
+# Run inference on generated hypotheses
+hypogenic_inference --config ./data/your_task/config.yaml --hypotheses output/hypotheses.json
+```
+
+**Or use Python API:**
+
+```python
+from hypogenic import BaseTask
+
+# Create task with your configuration
+task = BaseTask(config_path="./data/your_task/config.yaml")
+
+# Generate hypotheses
+task.generate_hypotheses(method="hypogenic", num_hypotheses=20)
+
+# Run inference
+results = task.inference(hypothesis_bank="./output/hypotheses.json")
+```

+
+## Core Capabilities
+
+### 1. HypoGeniC: Data-Driven Hypothesis Generation
+
+Generate hypotheses solely from observational data through iterative refinement.
+
+**Process:**
+1. Initialize with a small data subset to generate candidate hypotheses
+2. Iteratively refine hypotheses based on performance
+3. Replace poorly-performing hypotheses with new ones from challenging examples
+
+**Best for:** Exploratory research without existing literature, pattern discovery in novel datasets
+
+### 2. HypoRefine: Literature and Data Integration
+
+Synergistically combine existing literature with empirical data through an agentic framework.
+
+**Process:**
+1. Extract insights from relevant research papers (typically 10 papers)
+2. Generate theory-grounded hypotheses from literature
+3. Generate data-driven hypotheses from observational patterns
+4. Refine both hypothesis banks through iterative improvement
+
+**Best for:** Research with established theoretical foundations, validating or extending existing theories
+
+### 3. Union Methods
+
+Mechanistically combine literature-only hypotheses with framework outputs.
+
+**Variants:**
+- **Literature ∪ HypoGeniC**: Combines literature hypotheses with data-driven generation
+- **Literature ∪ HypoRefine**: Combines literature hypotheses with integrated approach
+
+**Best for:** Comprehensive hypothesis coverage, eliminating redundancy while maintaining diverse perspectives
+
+## Installation
+
+Install via pip:
+```bash
+uv pip install hypogenic
+```
+
+**Optional dependencies:**
+- **Redis server** (port 6832): Enables caching of LLM responses to significantly reduce API costs during iterative hypothesis generation
+- **s2orc-doc2json**: Required for processing literature PDFs in HypoRefine workflows
+- **GROBID**: Required for PDF preprocessing (see Literature Processing section)
+
+**Clone example datasets:**
+```bash
+# For HypoGeniC examples
+git clone https://github.com/ChicagoHAI/HypoGeniC-datasets.git ./data
+
+# For HypoRefine/Union examples
+git clone https://github.com/ChicagoHAI/Hypothesis-agent-datasets.git ./data
+```
+
+## Dataset Format
+
+Datasets must follow HuggingFace datasets format with specific naming conventions:
+
+**Required files:**
+- `<TASK>_train.json`: Training data
+- `<TASK>_val.json`: Validation data  
+- `<TASK>_test.json`: Test data
+
+**Required keys in JSON:**
+- `text_features_1` through `text_features_n`: Lists of strings containing feature values
+- `label`: List of strings containing ground truth labels
+
+**Example (headline click prediction):**
+```json
+{
+  "headline_1": [
+    "What Up, Comet? You Just Got *PROBED*",
+    "Scientists Made a Breakthrough in Quantum Computing"
+  ],
+  "headline_2": [
+    "Scientists Everywhere Were Holding Their Breath Today. Here's Why.",
+    "New Quantum Computer Achieves Milestone"
+  ],
+  "label": [
+    "Headline 2 has more clicks than Headline 1",
+    "Headline 1 has more clicks than Headline 2"
+  ]
+}
+```
+
+**Important notes:**
+- All lists must have the same length
+- Label format must match your `extract_label()` function output format
+- Feature keys can be customized to match your domain (e.g., `review_text`, `post_content`, etc.)
+
+## Configuration
+
+Each task requires a `config.yaml` file specifying:
+
+**Required elements:**
+- Dataset paths (train/val/test)
+- Prompt templates for:
+  - Observations generation
+  - Batched hypothesis generation
+  - Hypothesis inference
+  - Relevance checking
+  - Adaptive methods (for HypoRefine)
+
+**Template capabilities:**
+- Dataset placeholders for dynamic variable injection (e.g., `${text_features_1}`, `${num_hypotheses}`)
+- Custom label extraction functions for domain-specific parsing
+- Role-based prompt structure (system, user, assistant roles)
+
+**Configuration structure:**
+```yaml
+task_name: your_task_name
+
+train_data_path: ./your_task_train.json
+val_data_path: ./your_task_val.json
+test_data_path: ./your_task_test.json
+
+prompt_templates:
+  # Extra keys for reusable prompt components
+  observations: |
+    Feature 1: ${text_features_1}
+    Feature 2: ${text_features_2}
+    Observation: ${label}
+  
+  # Required templates
+  batched_generation:
+    system: "Your system prompt here"
+    user: "Your user prompt with ${num_hypotheses} placeholder"
+  
+  inference:
+    system: "Your inference system prompt"
+    user: "Your inference user prompt"
+  
+  # Optional templates for advanced features
+  few_shot_baseline: {...}
+  is_relevant: {...}
+  adaptive_inference: {...}
+  adaptive_selection: {...}
+```
+
+Refer to `references/config_template.yaml` for a complete example configuration.
+
+## Literature Processing (HypoRefine/Union Methods)
+
+To use literature-based hypothesis generation, you must preprocess PDF papers:
+
+**Step 1: Setup GROBID** (first time only)
+```bash
+bash ./modules/setup_grobid.sh
+```
+
+**Step 2: Add PDF files**
+Place research papers in `literature/YOUR_TASK_NAME/raw/`
+
+**Step 3: Process PDFs**
+```bash
+# Start GROBID service
+bash ./modules/run_grobid.sh
+
+# Process PDFs for your task
+cd examples
+python pdf_preprocess.py --task_name YOUR_TASK_NAME
+```
+
+This converts PDFs to structured format for hypothesis extraction. Automated literature search will be supported in future releases.
+

+hypogenic_inference --help
+```
+
+**Key parameters:**

+
+## Python API Usage
+
+For programmatic control and custom workflows, use Hypogenic directly in your Python code:
+
+### Basic HypoGeniC Generation
+
+```python
+from hypogenic import BaseTask
+
+# Clone example datasets first
+# git clone https://github.com/ChicagoHAI/HypoGeniC-datasets.git ./data
+
+# Load your task with custom extract_label function
+task = BaseTask(
+    config_path="./data/your_task/config.yaml",
+    extract_label=lambda text: extract_your_label(text)
+)
+
+# Generate hypotheses
+task.generate_hypotheses(
+    method="hypogenic",
+    num_hypotheses=20,
+    output_path="./output/hypotheses.json"
+)
+
+# Run inference
+results = task.inference(
+    hypothesis_bank="./output/hypotheses.json",
+    test_data="./data/your_task/your_task_test.json"
+)
+```
+
+### HypoRefine/Union Methods
+
+```python
+# For literature-integrated approaches
+# git clone https://github.com/ChicagoHAI/Hypothesis-agent-datasets.git ./data
+
+# Generate with HypoRefine
+task.generate_hypotheses(
+    method="hyporefine",
+    num_hypotheses=15,
+    literature_path="./literature/your_task/",
+    output_path="./output/"
+)
+# This generates 3 hypothesis banks:
+# - HypoRefine (integrated approach)
+# - Literature-only hypotheses
+# - Literature∪HypoRefine (union)
+```
+
+### Multi-Hypothesis Inference
+
+```python
+from examples.multi_hyp_inference import run_multi_hypothesis_inference
+
+# Test multiple hypotheses simultaneously
+results = run_multi_hypothesis_inference(
+    config_path="./data/your_task/config.yaml",
+    hypothesis_bank="./output/hypotheses.json",
+    test_data="./data/your_task/your_task_test.json"
+)
+```
+
+### Custom Label Extraction
+
+The `extract_label()` function is critical for parsing LLM outputs. Implement it based on your task:
+
+```python
+def extract_label(llm_output: str) -> str:
+    """Extract predicted label from LLM inference text.
+    
+    Default behavior: searches for 'final answer:\s+(.*)' pattern.
+    Customize for your domain-specific output format.
+    """
+    import re
+    match = re.search(r'final answer:\s+(.*)', llm_output, re.IGNORECASE)
+    if match:
+        return match.group(1).strip()
+    return llm_output.strip()
+```
+
+**Important:** Extracted labels must match the format of `label` values in your dataset for correct accuracy calculation.
+
+## Workflow Examples
+
+### Example 1: Data-Driven Hypothesis Generation (HypoGeniC)
+
+**Scenario:** Detecting AI-generated content without prior theoretical framework
+
+**Steps:**
+1. Prepare dataset with text samples and labels (human vs. AI-generated)
+2. Create `config.yaml` with appropriate prompt templates
+3. Run hypothesis generation:
+   ```bash
+   hypogenic_generation --config config.yaml --method hypogenic --num_hypotheses 20
+   ```
+4. Run inference on test set:
+   ```bash
+   hypogenic_inference --config config.yaml --hypotheses output/hypotheses.json --test_data data/test.json
+   ```
+5. Analyze results for patterns like formality, grammatical precision, and tone differences
+
+### Example 2: Literature-Informed Hypothesis Testing (HypoRefine)
+
+**Scenario:** Deception detection in hotel reviews building on existing research
+
+**Steps:**
+1. Collect 10 relevant papers on linguistic deception cues
+2. Prepare dataset with genuine and fraudulent reviews
+3. Configure `config.yaml` with literature processing and data generation templates
+4. Run HypoRefine:
+   ```bash
+   hypogenic_generation --config config.yaml --method hyporefine --papers papers/ --num_hypotheses 15
+   ```
+5. Test hypotheses examining pronoun frequency, detail specificity, and other linguistic patterns
+6. Compare literature-based and data-driven hypothesis performance
+
+### Example 3: Comprehensive Hypothesis Coverage (Union Method)
+
+**Scenario:** Mental stress detection maximizing hypothesis diversity
+
+**Steps:**
+1. Generate literature hypotheses from mental health research papers
+2. Generate data-driven hypotheses from social media posts
+3. Run Union method to combine and deduplicate:
+   ```bash
+   hypogenic_generation --config config.yaml --method union --literature_hypotheses lit_hyp.json
+   ```
+4. Inference captures both theoretical constructs (posting behavior changes) and data patterns (emotional language shifts)
+
+## Performance Optimization
+
+**Caching:** Enable Redis caching to reduce API costs and computation time for repeated LLM calls
+
+**Parallel Processing:** Leverage multiple workers for large-scale hypothesis generation and testing
+
+**Adaptive Refinement:** Use challenging examples to iteratively improve hypothesis quality
+
+## Expected Outcomes
+
+Research using hypogenic has demonstrated:
+- 14.19% accuracy improvement in AI-content detection tasks
+- 7.44% accuracy improvement in deception detection tasks
+- 80-84% of hypothesis pairs offering distinct, non-redundant insights
+- High helpfulness ratings from human evaluators across multiple research domains
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+**Issue:** Generated hypotheses are too generic
+**Solution:** Refine prompt templates in `config.yaml` to request more specific, testable hypotheses
+
+**Issue:** Poor inference performance
+**Solution:** Ensure dataset has sufficient training examples, adjust hypothesis generation parameters, or increase number of hypotheses
+
+**Issue:** Label extraction failures
+**Solution:** Implement custom `extract_label()` function for domain-specific output parsing
+
+**Issue:** GROBID PDF processing fails
+**Solution:** Ensure GROBID service is running (`bash ./modules/run_grobid.sh`) and PDFs are valid research papers
+
+## Creating Custom Tasks
+
+To add a new task or dataset to Hypogenic:
+
+### Step 1: Prepare Your Dataset
+
+Create three JSON files following the required format:
+- `your_task_train.json`
+- `your_task_val.json`
+- `your_task_test.json`
+
+Each file must have keys for text features (`text_features_1`, etc.) and `label`.
+
+### Step 2: Create config.yaml
+
+Define your task configuration with:
+- Task name and dataset paths
+- Prompt templates for observations, generation, inference
+- Any extra keys for reusable prompt components
+- Placeholder variables (e.g., `${text_features_1}`, `${num_hypotheses}`)
+
+### Step 3: Implement extract_label Function
+
+Create a custom label extraction function that parses LLM outputs for your domain:
+
+```python
+from hypogenic import BaseTask
+
+def extract_my_label(llm_output: str) -> str:
+    """Custom label extraction for your task.
+    
+    Must return labels in same format as dataset 'label' field.
+    """
+    # Example: Extract from specific format
+    if "Final prediction:" in llm_output:
+        return llm_output.split("Final prediction:")[-1].strip()
+    
+    # Fallback to default pattern
+    import re
+    match = re.search(r'final answer:\s+(.*)', llm_output, re.IGNORECASE)
+    return match.group(1).strip() if match else llm_output.strip()
+
+# Use your custom task
+task = BaseTask(
+    config_path="./your_task/config.yaml",
+    extract_label=extract_my_label
+)
+```
+
+### Step 4: (Optional) Process Literature
+
+For HypoRefine/Union methods:
+1. Create `literature/your_task_name/raw/` directory
+2. Add relevant research paper PDFs
+3. Run GROBID preprocessing
+4. Process with `pdf_preprocess.py`
+
+### Step 5: Generate and Test
+
+Run hypothesis generation and inference using CLI or Python API:
+
+```bash
+# CLI approach
+hypogenic_generation --config your_task/config.yaml --method hypogenic --num_hypotheses 20
+hypogenic_inference --config your_task/config.yaml --hypotheses output/hypotheses.json
+
+# Or use Python API (see Python API Usage section)
+```
