I figured out how to make the localization gradient descent converge better: we either need to fix the SIFS measure or optimize it some other way. All of our traces, even ones we thought were failures before, work with a value for the SIFS that doesn’t cause avalanching in the localization. I still need to figure an alternative to optimize for this SIFS initially, or if it needs to be fixed to a constant.
I also got the Matlab program running in the python engine – so our entire program stack can be run together now, just need to add in the data collection.
Next week, I’ll be working on polishing the AR interface for users (adding text, instructions, and consistent updates)!
