Minutes from 6 May 2009
2009/05/06 CSEP
Meeting Attendees: Danijel S., John Y., Masha L
- Status of CSEP V9.4.0 on csep-op server:
- Masha discovered a problem introduced in V9.4.0: plots for alarm-based evaluation tests are not published to the web server:
- FIXED: Trac ticket #150: Alarm-based tests are missing test identifier within filename
- Masha discovered a problem introduced in V9.4.0: plots for alarm-based evaluation tests are not published to the web server:
- Tasks for intermediate CSEP V9.4.1 release:
- FIXED: Trac ticket #147: Assumption in R-test simulation violated
- Jeremy submitted a fix for Matlab implementation of R-test to select the same bin in both forecasts for comparison
- Masha updated reference data for acceptance tests affected by the fix
- IN-PROGRESS: Trac ticket #146: Avoid overwritting of modules by testing region distribution during installation
- Code freeze is scheduled for EOB Friday, May 8, 2009
- FIXED: Trac ticket #147: Assumption in R-test simulation violated
- Tasks for CSEP V9.7 release:
- Peter Shebalin's EAST three-month alarm-based model for California
- Installed M5 version of the model on csep-cert in three-month-alarm-models-V9.7
- Input ANSS catalog not filtered by magnitude - due to increased requests from modeler
- Danijel suggested to abandon M5 version and to install M4 version
- Masha will ask Peter for new reference data
- Alvaro Gonzalez's one-day alarm-based model for California
- Alvaro met with Masha, discussed CSEP requirements for model submission
- Alvaro will have time after May 15 to work on model integration
- Might be part of CSEP V9.10.0 if there will be not enough time before code freeze for V9.7.0
- Yan's Global long-term and short-term models using CMT:
- Yan's forecast is using 0.5 degree grid vs. CSEP 1.0 degree grid:
- Yan provided conversion routine for short-term forecast file
- Will ask Yan to provide routine for long-term forecast file since it has different file format
- Yan's forecast is using 0.5 degree grid vs. CSEP 1.0 degree grid:
- Trac ticket #148: Introduce acceptance tests for the viewer of testing center results
- John and Masha will work together on setting up a simple test case using ClientForm.py, HTML parser (BeautifulSoup, may be) and Python's unittest testing framework
- Peter Shebalin's EAST three-month alarm-based model for California
- John set up new server csep-beta with cross-mounted new storage to replace current operational server:
- Masha set up nightly crontab Dispatcher jobs to mimic operational server for testing
- Faster than current operational server
- Python process writing to the disk was stuck - finished OK when Masha pstack-ed the process and wrote manually to the same directory
- Will test the server until next Wednesday
- Will replace operational server if no problems are discovered 5. Jeremy distributed mini_CSEP
- Danijel suggested to re-write Matlab evaluation codes in Python
- Danijel asked if generic CSEP distribution can be split into packages like Forecast, Catalog, EvaluationTests utilities:
- Masha pointed out that generic CSEP distibution has stand-alone functionality for most of the modules, but there might be dependencies on external packages
- Masha needs some time to investigate dependencies
