    10.5, 10.3, 10.7, 11.2, 11.8, 12.1, 12.5
};

auto trend = TrendAnalyzer::analyzeTrend(performance_history);

std::cout << "Direction: " << trend.getDirectionString() << "\n";
std::cout << "Confidence: " << (trend.confidence * 100) << "%\n";
std::cout << "Change: " << trend.average_change_percent << "%\n";

for (const auto& anomaly : anomalies) {
    if (anomaly.isCritical()) {
        std::cout << "Critical anomaly at index " << anomaly.index << "\n";
        std::cout << "  Value: " << anomaly.value << "\n";

        std::cout << "  Deviation: " << anomaly.deviation_sigma << " sigma\n";
    }
}

// Moving Average prediction
auto pred_ma = PerformancePredictor::predictMovingAverage(history);

std::cout << "Predicted: " << pred_ma.predicted_value << " ms\n";
std::cout << "95% CI: [" << pred_ma.confidence_lower << ", "
          << pred_ma.confidence_upper << "]\n";

🎯 Real-World Use Cases

Use Case 1: CI/CD Performance Gate

Scenario: Automatically fail builds that regress performance

// In CI/CD pipeline:
QualityGateManager manager;

// Load configuration
manager.loadConfig("ci_gates.json");

// Run performance tests
runPerformanceTests();

// Evaluate gates
auto results = manager.evaluateAll();

// Exit with appropriate code
return manager.getExitCode(results);  // 0 = pass, 1 = fail

Use Case 2: Performance Trend Monitoring

Scenario: Track performance over 100 builds, detect degradation

std::vector<double> build_performance;

// Collect from last 100 builds
for (int i = 1; i <= 100; ++i) {
    double perf = getBuildPerformance(i);
    build_performance.push_back(perf);
}

// Analyze trend
auto trend = TrendAnalyzer::analyzeTrend(build_performance);

if (trend.direction == TrendDirection::Degrading &&
    trend.confidence > 0.8) {
    alert("Performance degrading over time!");
    alert("Average change: " + std::to_string(trend.average_change_percent) + "%");
}

Use Case 3: Anomaly Alert System

Scenario: Real-time anomaly detection in production

AnomalyDetector detector;

// Streaming mode
while (running) {
    double current_latency = measureLatency();

    if (detector.isAnomaly(current_latency)) {
        sendAlert("Performance anomaly detected!");
        logEvent("Latency: " + std::to_string(current_latency) + " ms");
    }

    std::this_thread::sleep_for(std::chrono::seconds(60));
}

Use Case 4: Capacity Planning

Scenario: Predict when resources will be exhausted

std::vector<double> memory_usage_history;
// ... collect historical data ...

auto pred = PerformancePredictor::predictLinearExtrapolation(
    memory_usage_history,
    30  // 30 days ahead
);

double max_capacity = 32.0 * 1024;  // 32 GB

if (pred.predicted_value > max_capacity * 0.9) {
    alert("Memory capacity will be reached in ~30 days");
    alert("Predicted: " + std::to_string(pred.predicted_value) + " MB");
    alert("Consider scaling up");
}

Use Case 5: Automated Performance Budget Enforcement

Scenario: Development team must meet performance budgets

// performance_budgets.json
{
  "THD_Analysis": {
    "max_mean_ms": 15.0,
    "max_p95_ms": 20.0,
    "severity": "error"
  },
  "FFT_8192": {
    "max_mean_ms": 10.0,
    "severity": "error"
  }
}

// In pre-commit hook or CI
QualityGateManager manager;
manager.loadConfig("performance_budgets.json");

auto results = manager.evaluateAll();

if (!manager.allPassed(results)) {
    std::cerr << "Performance budgets exceeded!\n";
    std::cerr << manager.generateReport(results);
    return 1;  // Block commit/build
}
