### ML Training Pipeline

```python
# Training workflow
async def train_model_pipeline(tenant_id: str, product_id: str):
    """Complete ML training pipeline"""

    # Step 1: Data Collection
    sales_data = await fetch_historical_sales(tenant_id, product_id)
    if len(sales_data) < MIN_TRAINING_DAYS:
        raise InsufficientDataError(f"Need {MIN_TRAINING_DAYS}+ days of data")

    # Step 2: Feature Engineering
    features = engineer_features(sales_data)
    weather_data = await fetch_weather_data(tenant_id)
    traffic_data = await fetch_traffic_data(tenant_id)
    holiday_data = await fetch_holiday_calendar()
    poi_features = await fetch_poi_features(tenant_id)  # NEW: Location context

    # Merge POI features into training dataframe
    features = merge_poi_features(features, poi_features)

    # Step 3: Prophet Model Training
    model = Prophet(
        seasonality_mode='additive',
        daily_seasonality=True,
        weekly_seasonality=True,
        yearly_seasonality=True,
    )
    model.add_country_holidays(country_name='ES')
    model.fit(features)

    # Step 4: Model Validation
    metrics = calculate_performance_metrics(model, sales_data)

    # Step 5: Model Storage
    model_path = save_model_artifact(model, tenant_id, product_id)

    # Step 6: Model Registration
    await register_model_in_database(model_path, metrics)

    # Step 7: Notification
    await publish_training_complete_event(tenant_id, product_id, metrics)

    return model, metrics
```

### WebSocket Progress Updates

```python
# Real-time progress broadcasting
async def broadcast_training_progress(job_id: str, progress: dict):
    """Send progress update to connected clients"""

    message = {
        "type": "training_progress",
        "job_id": job_id,
        "progress": {
            "percentage": progress["percentage"],          # 0-100
            "current_step": progress["step"],              # Step description
            "products_completed": progress["completed"],
            "products_total": progress["total"],
            "estimated_time_remaining": progress["eta"],   # Seconds
            "started_at": progress["start_time"]
        },
        "timestamp": datetime.utcnow().isoformat()
    }

    await websocket_manager.broadcast(job_id, message)
```

### Model Artifact Management (MinIO Storage)

```python
# Model storage and retrieval using MinIO
import joblib
from shared.clients.minio_client import minio_client

# Save trained model to MinIO
def save_model_artifact(model: Prophet, tenant_id: str, product_id: str) -> str:
    """Serialize and store model in MinIO"""
    import io
    version = datetime.utcnow().strftime("%Y%m%d_%H%M%S")
    model_id = str(uuid.uuid4())
    object_name = f"models/{tenant_id}/{product_id}/{model_id}.pkl"

    # Serialize model (joblib.dump writes to file-like objects)
    buffer = io.BytesIO()
    joblib.dump(model, buffer)
    model_data = buffer.getvalue()

    # Upload to MinIO
    minio_client.put_object(
        bucket_name="training-models",
        object_name=object_name,
        data=model_data,
        content_type="application/octet-stream"
    )

    # Return MinIO path
    return f"minio://training-models/{object_name}"

# Load trained model from MinIO
def load_model_artifact(model_path: str) -> Prophet:
    """Load serialized model from MinIO"""
    import io
    # Parse MinIO path: minio://bucket_name/object_path
    _, bucket_and_path = model_path.split("://", 1)
    bucket_name, object_name = bucket_and_path.split("/", 1)

    # Download from MinIO
    model_data = minio_client.get_object(bucket_name, object_name)

    # Deserialize (joblib.load reads from file-like objects)
    buffer = io.BytesIO(model_data)
    return joblib.load(buffer)
```

### Performance Metrics Calculation

```python
from sklearn.metrics import mean_absolute_error, mean_squared_error, r2_score
import numpy as np

def calculate_performance_metrics(model: Prophet, actual_data: pd.DataFrame) -> dict:
    """Calculate comprehensive model performance metrics"""

    # Make predictions on validation set
    predictions = model.predict(actual_data)

    # Calculate metrics
    mae = mean_absolute_error(actual_data['y'], predictions['yhat'])
    rmse = np.sqrt(mean_squared_error(actual_data['y'], predictions['yhat']))
    r2 = r2_score(actual_data['y'], predictions['yhat'])
    mape = np.mean(np.abs((actual_data['y'] - predictions['yhat']) / actual_data['y'])) * 100

    return {
        "mae": float(mae),           # Mean Absolute Error
        "rmse": float(rmse),         # Root Mean Square Error
        "r2_score": float(r2),       # R-squared
        "mape": float(mape),         # Mean Absolute Percentage Error
        "accuracy": float(100 - mape) if mape < 100 else 0.0
    }
```

## POI Feature Integration

### How POI Features Enhance Training

The Training Service integrates location-based POI features from the External Service to improve forecast accuracy:

**POI Features Included:**
- `school_density` - Number of schools within 1km radius
- `office_density` - Number of offices and business centers nearby
- `residential_density` - Residential area proximity
- `transport_hub_proximity` - Distance to metro, bus, train stations
- `commercial_zone_score` - Commercial activity in the area
- `restaurant_density` - Nearby restaurants and cafes
- `competitor_proximity` - Distance to competing bakeries
- And 11+ more location-based features

**Integration Process:**
1. **Fetch POI Context** - Retrieve tenant's POI features from External Service (`/poi-context/{tenant_id}`)
2. **Extract ML Features** - Parse `ml_features` JSON object from POI context
3. **Merge with Training Data** - Add POI features as additional columns in training dataframe
4. **Prophet Training** - Include POI features as regressors in Prophet model
5. **Feature Importance** - Track which POI features most impact predictions

**Example POI Feature Integration:**
```python
from app.ml.poi_feature_integrator import POIFeatureIntegrator

# Initialize POI integrator
poi_integrator = POIFeatureIntegrator(external_service_url)

# Fetch and merge POI features
poi_features = await poi_integrator.fetch_poi_features(tenant_id)
training_df = poi_integrator.merge_poi_features(training_df, poi_features)

# POI features now available as columns:
# training_df['school_density'], training_df['office_density'], etc.

# Add POI features as Prophet regressors
for feature_name in poi_features.keys():
    prophet_model.add_regressor(feature_name)
```

**Endpoint Used:**
- Via shared client: `/api/v1/tenants/{tenant_id}/external/poi-context` (routed through API Gateway)

## Integration Points

### Dependencies (Services Called)
- **Sales Service** - Fetch historical sales data for training
- **External Service** - Fetch weather, traffic, holiday, and POI feature data
- **PostgreSQL** - Store job queue, models, metrics, logs
- **RabbitMQ** - Publish training completion events
- **MinIO** - Store model artifacts (S3-compatible object storage with TLS)

### Dependents (Services That Call This)
- **Forecasting Service** - Load trained models for predictions
- **Orchestrator Service** - Trigger scheduled training jobs
- **Frontend Dashboard** - Display training progress and model metrics
- **AI Insights Service** - Analyze model performance patterns

## Security Measures

### Data Protection
- **Tenant Isolation** - All training jobs scoped to tenant_id
- **Model Access Control** - Only tenant can access their models
- **Input Validation** - Validate all training parameters
- **Rate Limiting** - Prevent training job spam

### Model Security
- **Model Checksums** - SHA-256 hash verification for artifacts
- **Version Control** - Track all model versions with audit trail
- **Access Logging** - Log all model access and deployment
- **Secure Storage** - Model files stored with restricted permissions

### WebSocket Security
- **JWT Authentication** - Authenticate WebSocket connections
- **Connection Limits** - Max connections per tenant
- **Message Validation** - Validate all WebSocket messages
- **Heartbeat Monitoring** - Detect and close stale connections

## Performance Optimization

### Training Performance
1. **Parallel Processing** - Train multiple products concurrently
2. **Data Caching** - Cache fetched external data across products
3. **Incremental Training** - Only retrain changed products
4. **Resource Limits** - CPU/memory limits per training job
5. **Priority Queue** - Prioritize important products first

### Storage Optimization (MinIO)
1. **Object Versioning** - MinIO maintains version history automatically
2. **Lifecycle Policies** - Auto-cleanup old versions after 90 days
3. **TLS Encryption** - Secure communication with MinIO
4. **Distributed Storage** - MinIO handles replication and availability

### WebSocket Optimization
1. **Message Batching** - Batch progress updates (every 2 seconds)
2. **Connection Pooling** - Reuse WebSocket connections
3. **Compression** - Enable WebSocket message compression
4. **Heartbeat** - Keep connections alive efficiently

## Troubleshooting

### Common Issues

**Issue**: Training jobs stuck in "pending" status
- **Cause**: Max concurrent jobs reached or worker process crashed
- **Solution**: Check `MAX_CONCURRENT_JOBS` setting, restart service

**Issue**: WebSocket connection drops during training
- **Cause**: Network timeout or client disconnection
- **Solution**: Implement auto-reconnect logic in client

**Issue**: "Insufficient data" errors for many products
- **Cause**: Products need 30+ days of sales history
- **Solution**: Import more historical sales data or reduce `MIN_TRAINING_DATA_DAYS`

**Issue**: Low model accuracy (<70%)
- **Cause**: Insufficient data, outliers, or changing business patterns
- **Solution**: Clean outliers, add more features, or manually adjust Prophet params

### Debug Mode
```bash
# Enable detailed logging
export LOG_LEVEL=DEBUG
export PROPHET_VERBOSE=1

# Enable training profiling
export ENABLE_PROFILING=1

# Disable concurrent jobs for debugging
export MAX_CONCURRENT_JOBS=1
```

## Competitive Advantages

1. **One-Click ML** - No data science expertise required
2. **Real-Time Visibility** - WebSocket progress updates unique in bakery software
