Beau 742959d674 Restore missing core source files (RIPPER variants + experiment runner) 
These six modules were referenced throughout the repo (and by the README's
`python run_all_experiments.py` entry point) but had never been committed, so the
code could not run. Recovered from the original working repo and verified byte-for-byte
against the leftover __pycache__ bytecode to be the exact versions last run here.

- run_all_experiments.py (Excel-based data loading + experiment orchestration)
- RIPPER_no_onto_guid.py
- RIPPER_onto_guid.py
- RIPPER_onto_guid_grow.py
- RIPPER_onto_guid_grow_and_prune.py
- RIPPER_onto_guid_grow_prune_mdl.py

README.md

README

Reference code for the ontology-guided RIPPER experiments. It runs entirely from the bundled Excel dataset (excels/non_dummy_columns_df_less_classes.xlsx) — no database connection is needed.

How to run

Activate a python env and install deps

python -m venv .venv (I used python version 3.13.3) source ./.venv/Scripts/activate pip install -r requirements.txt

Run all experiments

python run_all_experiments.py or when wanting to re run everything from scratch python run_all_experiments.py --start-fresh

(The Weka JRip baseline additionally needs a Java runtime; it is skipped automatically if java/weka.jar are unavailable.)

Further info

  • ./results holds all saved data behind the figures, including the learned rules.
  • the results that were used are in the subfolder /pooled (pooled over the 5 folds).
  • supplementary_diagnostics.py reproduces the secondary analyses referenced in the Discussion (extreme-lambda behaviour and the combined grow+prune+MDL variant). These are exploratory, single-repeat checks and are not part of the primary study.
