|
This run followed the first symmetric run. It had an asymmetric length, but the opening angle and inner radius were kept symmetric.
10 individuals were evolved over 17 generations using 100,000 neutrinos. All selection was done through roulette, and all individuals were formed
through crossover and the old mutation method (where individual genes had a 40% to be mutated, and mutated genes were chosen from a gaussian based on the |

|
This is considered to be the first run of "good" data. Prior to this run, we ran with few neutrinos and had errors which needed to be
resolved in AraSim and with the way we handled XFdtd's simulation results being passed to AraSim. Those were resolved in the summer before this run.
This was a symmetric run of 10 individuals over 15 generations using 100,000 neutrinos per individual. This preceded the substantial modifications |

|
This is the run that is discussed in the GENETIS paper submitted to Physical Review D in December of 2021. It was conducted beginning on March 19, 2021.
The preprint can be found here. It ran for 31 generations with 50 individuals per generation. Each individual
was run through AraSim for 300,000 neutrinos. |

|
We began a new run of the curved sided GA. Previously, we conducted a run just like this in July of 2022 (titled 2022_07_15_Latest_Greatest). In that
run, we made substantial updates to the loop, including using the latest version of AraSim. However, we discovered after the run (which had a very flat
fitness score growth curve) that we had not modified AraSim to take in gainfiles appropriately (so it was just evaluating the ARA bicone repeatedly). We've |

We have started a new run. Here is the directory: /fs/ess/PAS1960/BiconeEvolutionOSC/BiconeEvolution/current_antenna_evo_build/XF_Loop/Evolutionary_Loop/Run_Outputs/2022_07_15_Latest_Greatest
This run is a substantial overhaul. It is a curved run using the latest parameters from Ryan's optimization loop. Here is a list of important
changes: |

Tue Jun 7 12:20:23 2022, Alex M, Run Details: 2022_04_14_Identical_Asym_Lower_Min
|
This run was a short run (stopped due to resource limits) that was conducted to test the minimum length constraint that had been applied in the past.
Previously, the minimum length was set to be 37.5 cm for each cone; in this run, it was lowered to 10 cm. It ran for 60 generations with 50 individuals
per generation, each evaluated with 300,000 neutrinos. To compare to the paper run, this run was performed using the asymmetric algorithm, meaning each |

Tue Jun 7 11:01:59 2022, Alex M, Run Details: 2022_02_08_Rank_Test
|
This run was started on February 2, 2022. It is a full run of 50 generations with 50 individuals per generation using the quadratic version of the loop.
This means that each individual is defined by 8 genes (length, inner radius, linear coefficient, and quadratic coefficient for each cone). Attached is
the txt file run_details.txt that is automatically generated when the loop is run. Each individual was run for 300,000 neutrinos. |

|
Here are the changes that have been made in this (and the preceding) run relative to what we have been doing before.
The newest version of AraSim has been implemented.
This was done because AraSim has gone through significant changes since
2019 that make it more accurate and makes it run faster.
The minimum length has been decreased to 10 cm per side.

|
The following is a run summary of an AREA test using 100 individuals per generation, without the linear frequency dependence on the
gain, with the frequency fixed (i.e. the same gain pattern is produced for all frequencies). This run was a preliminary test of the AREA algorithm with
a larger NPop (100 individuals per generation) after seeing promising results in the previous test that only used 20 individuals per generation. The percentages |

The following is a run summary of the AREA test without the linear frequency dependence on the gain, with the frequency fixed (i.e. the same gain pattern
is produced for all frequencies). This run was a preliminary test of the AREA algorithm after fixing long-standing errors in the algorithm and finding
that the initial constaints implemented did not work with the frequency dependence on gain. Results from this run did show a "proof-of-concept" |

The reviewer asked us to run the loop again but for just symmetric antenna designs. We have completed that run and have results ready. We still need
to resimulate the top five individuals, which I'll update this post with later. I attached the violin plot (though it should be fixed to not let the
legend overlap the data). See this previous entry for the details of the run: http://radiorm.physics.ohio-state.edu/elog/GENETIS/198 |

Tue Feb 8 15:56:42 2022, Machtay, Rank Test Run
|
I fixed a bug in the loop, so we started another rank test run. Run details in the attached file.
The bug was searching for the generationDNA.csv file in the wrong place, meaning that it wasn't able to copy it to the run directory. That
meant we didn't have a record of the generation data in the usual format. I don't think that this explains the flatness, since the the generationDNA.csv |

We have the PUEO loop in working order, though there are a few errors in accuracy and efficiency. We started a preliminary run with few individuals and
neutrrinos as a large scale test that may still give us some useful data.
For this run, we are only evolving the inner side length (10cm to 25 cm) and height (10 cm to 50 cm). The walls are slanted at 45 degrees, so |

This ELOG post contains plots I made this week for comparing the antennas as they were evolved in the run being discussed in the upcoming paper with
those same antennas when using realized gain instead of gain. These plots are preliminary, in that they should be edited before being placed in a paper
(for example, VSWR is not in dBi). |

the same Arasim version as is currently in the loop. |
