+
+`rfscorer` is a Python package for Recency-Frequency based recommendation scoring.
+
+It estimates **revisit probabilities** — the preference score for each user-item pair, forming a matrix analogous to a rating matrix — from interaction histories, using two simple but powerful behavioral signals: **recency**, which captures how recently a user interacted with an item, and **frequency**, which captures how often the user has interacted with it.
+
+The package is designed for product recommendation and revisit modeling, especially in settings where interpretable scoring based on interaction history is preferred over black-box recommendation models.
+
+> Note: In this package, **RF** stands for **Recency-Frequency**, not Random Forest.
+
+## Features
+
+- **scikit-learn-style API** — familiar `fit()` / `transform()` interface makes it easy to integrate into existing data science workflows
+- **Minimal data requirements** — works with any interaction log that has three columns: `user`, `item`, and `datetime`; no ratings or explicit feedback needed
+- **Explainable scoring** — probabilities are derived through mathematical optimization under RF monotonicity constraints, making every score fully traceable and auditable; 3D surface visualization further supports intuitive understanding
+- **Probabilistic output** — revisit probabilities serve as preference scores, enabling expected value calculations and probabilistic ranking of recommendations
+- **Extensible** — the user–item probability matrix produced by `transform()` can be directly used as input to collaborative filtering or other downstream recommendation models
+
+## Installation
+
+```bash
+pip install rfscorer
+```
+
+## Usage
+
+```python
+from rfscorer import RecencyFrequencyScorer
+```
+
+Prepare an interaction log with at least three columns: user ID, item ID, and timestamp.
+Split it into a training set and a test set.
+
+```python
+df_train = ...  # training interaction log (columns: user, item, datetime)
+df_test  = ...  # test interaction log  (columns: user, item, datetime)
+```
+
+| user  | item  | datetime   |
+|-------|-------|------------|
+| u_001 | i_032 | 2026-07-01 |
+| u_001 | i_017 | 2026-07-03 |
+| u_001 | i_032 | 2026-07-05 |
+| u_002 | i_011 | 2026-07-02 |
+| u_002 | i_058 | 2026-07-04 |
+
+The same user-item pair may appear multiple times, representing repeat visits.
+
+Instantiate the scorer, specifying the column names if they differ from the defaults (`user`, `item`, `datetime`).
+
+```python
+scorer = RecencyFrequencyScorer()
+```
+
+Call `fit()` to estimate empirical revisit probabilities from the training log.
+Specify the observation period (from which recency and frequency are computed) and the evaluation period (which provides the ground-truth revisit labels).
+
+```python
+scorer.fit(
+    df_train,
+    observation_period=("2026-07-01", "2026-07-07"),
+    evaluation_period=("2026-07-08", "2026-07-08"),
+)
+```
+
+The empirical surface reflects raw revisit rates and may be irregular due to sparse data.
+
+![empirical probability surface](img/empirical_probability_surface.png)
+
+Optionally, call `optimize()` to smooth the surface under RF monotonicity constraints using convex quadratic programming.
+`kind="mono"` enforces recency and frequency monotonicity.
+
+```python
+scorer.optimize(kind="mono")
+```
+
+![mono probability surface](img/mono_probability_surface.png)
+
+`kind="mcc"` additionally adds convexity in recency and concavity in frequency, yielding a smoother surface.
+
+```python
+scorer.optimize(kind="mcc")
+```
+
+![mcc probability surface](img/mcc_probability_surface.png)
+
+Call `transform()` to score each user-item pair in the test log.
+It returns a DataFrame with columns `user`, `item`, `recency`, `frequency`, `probability`, and `order` (rank within each user, sorted by probability descending).
+Pass `kind="empirical"`, `kind="mono"`, or `kind="mcc"` to select which probabilities to use.
+
+```python
+df_rec_mcc = scorer.transform(df_test, target_date="2026-07-07", kind="mcc")
+```
+
+| user   | item   | recency | frequency | probability | order |
+|--------|--------|--------:|----------:|------------:|------:|
+| u_001  | i_032  |       1 |         4 |      0.1167 |     1 |
+| u_001  | i_017  |       2 |         3 |      0.0789 |     2 |
+| u_001  | i_045  |       3 |         1 |      0.0248 |     3 |
+| u_002  | i_011  |       1 |         2 |      0.0621 |     1 |
+| u_002  | i_058  |       4 |         1 |      0.0182 |     2 |
+
+Within each user, rows are sorted by `probability` descending; `order` represents the recommendation rank.
