# Atomizer Dashboard

Professional web-based dashboard for controlling and monitoring optimization runs.

## Features

### Study Management
- **List all studies** - View all optimization studies with metadata
- **Resume studies** - Continue existing studies with additional trials
- **Delete studies** - Clean up old/unwanted studies
- **Study details** - View complete history, results, and metadata

### Optimization Control
- **Start new optimizations** - Configure and launch optimization runs
- **Real-time monitoring** - Track progress of active optimizations
- **Configuration management** - Load and save optimization configs

### Visualization
- **Progress charts** - Objective values over trials
- **Design variable plots** - Track parameter evolution
- **Constraint visualization** - Monitor constraint satisfaction
- **Running best** - See convergence progress

### Results Analysis
- **Best results cards** - Quick view of optimal solutions
- **Trial history table** - Complete trial-by-trial data
- **Export capabilities** - Download results in CSV/JSON

## Installation

1. Install dependencies:
```bash
cd dashboard
pip install -r requirements.txt
```

2. Start the dashboard server:
```bash
python api/app.py
```

3. Open your browser to:
```
http://localhost:8080
```

## Quick Start

### Method 1: Using the launcher script
```bash
cd C:\Users\antoi\Documents\Atomaste\Atomizer
python dashboard/start_dashboard.py
```

### Method 2: Manual start
```bash
cd dashboard
python api/app.py
```

The dashboard will automatically open in your default browser at `http://localhost:8080`

## Usage

### Starting a New Optimization

1. Click "New Optimization" button
2. Enter study name
3. Set number of trials
4. Select configuration file
5. Optionally check "Resume existing" if continuing a study
6. Click "Start Optimization"

### Viewing Study Results

1. Click on a study in the sidebar
2. View summary cards showing best results
3. Examine charts for optimization progress
4. Review trial history table for details

### Resuming a Study

1. Select the study from the sidebar
2. Click "Resume Study"
3. Enter number of additional trials
4. Optimization continues from where it left off

### Monitoring Active Optimizations

Active optimizations appear in the sidebar with:
- Real-time progress bars
- Current trial number
- Status indicators

## API Endpoints

### Studies
- `GET /api/studies` - List all studies
- `GET /api/studies/<name>` - Get study details
- `DELETE /api/studies/<name>/delete` - Delete a study

### Optimization
- `POST /api/optimization/start` - Start new optimization
- `GET /api/optimization/status` - Get all active optimizations
- `GET /api/optimization/<name>/status` - Get specific optimization status

### Configuration
- `GET /api/config/load?path=<path>` - Load config file
- `POST /api/config/save` - Save config file

### Visualization
- `GET /api/results/visualization/<name>` - Get chart data

## Technology Stack

- **Backend**: Flask (Python)
- **Frontend**: Vanilla JavaScript + Chart.js
- **Styling**: Modern CSS with gradients and shadows
- **Charts**: Chart.js for interactive visualizations

## Features in Detail

### Real-time Monitoring
The dashboard polls active optimizations every 5 seconds to show:
- Current trial number
- Progress percentage
- Status (running/completed/failed)

### Study Persistence
All studies are stored in SQLite databases with:
- Complete trial history
- Optuna study state
- Metadata (creation date, config hash, resume count)

### Configuration Detection
The system automatically detects when a study configuration has changed:
- Warns when resuming with different geometry
- Calculates MD5 hash of critical config parameters
- Helps prevent invalid resume operations

## Troubleshooting

### Dashboard won't start
- Check that Flask is installed: `pip install flask flask-cors`
- Ensure port 5000 is not in use
- Check firewall settings

### Can't see studies
- Verify optimization_results folder exists
- Check that studies have metadata files
- Refresh the studies list

### Charts not showing
- Ensure Chart.js loaded (check browser console)
- Verify study has trial history
- Check API endpoints are responding

## Future Enhancements

- [ ] Multi-objective Pareto front visualization
- [ ] Export results to PDF/Excel
- [ ] Optimization comparison tool
- [ ] Parameter importance analysis
- [ ] Surrogate model visualization
- [ ] Configuration editor UI
- [ ] Live log streaming
- [ ] Email notifications on completion

## Support

For issues or questions:
1. Check the console for error messages
2. Verify API is running (`http://localhost:5000/api/studies`)
3. Review optimization logs in the console
