|
||||
|
||||
## Implementation Date
|
||||
December 17, 2024
|
||||

|
||||
- Weighted average calculations with recent data emphasis
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## Files Modified

|
||||
- `/predictions` - Main dashboard
|
||||
- `/api/predictions` - JSON API for charts
|
||||
- `/api/predictions/category/<id>` - Detailed category forecast
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## Core Functionality
|
||||
|
||||
### 1. Prediction Engine (`predictions.py`)
|
||||
```python
|
||||
get_spending_predictions(user_id, months_ahead=3)
|
||||
```
|
||||
- Returns total and per-category predictions
|
||||
- Confidence levels: high/medium/low
|
||||
- Trend analysis: increasing/decreasing/stable
|
||||
- Based on historical data analysis
|
||||
|
||||
### 2. Statistical Methods
|
||||
- **Weighted Averages**: Recent months have higher weight (exponential decay)
|
||||
- **Trend Detection**: Linear regression on historical data
|
||||
- **Confidence Scoring**: Based on coefficient of variation
|
||||
- High: CV < 0.3 (consistent spending)
|
||||
- Medium: CV 0.3-0.6 (moderate variation)
|
||||
- Low: CV > 0.6 (highly variable)
|
||||
- **Seasonal Adjustments**:
|
||||
- December: +15% (holidays)
|
||||
- January: -10% (post-holiday)
|
||||
- July-August: +5% (summer)
|
||||
|
||||
### 3. Smart Insights
|
||||
```python
|
||||
generate_insights(category_predictions, current_date)
|
||||
```
|
||||
Automatically generates insights like:
|
||||
- "Your Food spending is increasing by 15% per month"
|
||||
- "Utilities predicted with 95% confidence at 450 RON"
|
||||
- "December spending may be 18% higher due to holidays"
|
||||
|
||||
### 4. Category Forecasts
|
||||
```python
|
||||
get_category_forecast(category, months=6)
|
||||
```
|
||||
- 6-month forward forecast per category
|
||||
- Monthly predictions with seasonal adjustments
|
||||
- Visual trend charts
|
||||
|
||||
## Security Implementation ✅
|
||||
|
||||
### Authentication & Authorization
|
||||
- ✅ All routes protected with `@login_required`
|
||||
- ✅ User data isolation via `current_user.id` filtering
|
||||
- ✅ Category ownership verification in detail views
|
||||
- ✅ No cross-user data access possible
|
||||
|
||||
### Input Validation
|
||||
- ✅ Months parameter limited to 1-12 range
|
||||
- ✅ Type validation (int) on query parameters
|
||||
- ✅ Category ID existence check before forecast
|
||||
- ✅ 404 errors for unauthorized access attempts
|
||||
|
||||
### Data Privacy
|
||||
- ✅ All predictions queries filter by user_id
|
||||
- ✅ No aggregated data across users
|
||||
- ✅ Personal spending data never exposed
|
||||
- ✅ CSRF tokens on all forms (inherited from base template)

|
||||
- Filters applied at database level
|
||||
- Minimal data transferred
|
||||
- Aggregations use SQL functions
|
||||
|
||||
## Deployment

|
||||
2. Custom seasonal patterns per user
|
||||
3. Budget vs prediction comparison
|
||||
4. Alert when predicted overspending
|
||||
5. Export predictions to CSV
|
||||
6. API rate limiting

||||
7. Caching of predictions (Redis)
|
||||
8. Historical accuracy tracking
|
||||
|
||||
