command-line options The interpolation can be switched on for the three reconstructions independently (energy, gammaness, direction) By default the correction is applied. If no MC DL1 training directory is provided, the path will be built from the path of the RF models. If directory does not exist the option is simply deactivated
Hi @moralejo |
Will do. What is better, just the zenith and azimuth values, or a list of the directory names? |
I think the table of values that you can use directly at inference would be great (with appropriate metadata such as the date of export). |

Instead of closest angular distance we now take the closest nodes in alt_tel on the same side of the culmination (same sign of sin_az_tel)

I have created the ECVS files for all directories of the new production, e.g.: |
Now the info is stored with the RF models in an ECVS file, and it is simply read from there
grown... Cast to numpy array of az and zd (solves error)

It looks good to me. I've just left some modifications on the docstrings following the numpydocs standard so it is later properly render in the documentation.
Thanks @morcuended ! |
From my side this is fine. Maybe for the future productions this file should be produced by lstmcpipe? One of these files, could even be included in lstchain test dataset for unit testing. |
yes, that is the idea.
For this we would need to store also RFs trained with several pointings. Is that the case now? |

I left one last comment.

No, right now dummy models are created from the test gamma MC, with single pointing
Ok, then we cannot introduce a unit test now. This is more than two months old, we need to move forward... |
This should solve the issue of RF "performance jumps" at high zenith angles, when the pointing goes through the middle points between training nodes. See #1317
NOTE: this is a different implementation of the interpolation approach proposed by @gabemery, see branch https://github.com/cta-observatory/cta-lstchain/tree/dl2_RF_interpolate)
If the interpolation option is activated we call the RF predictors twice, for each of the two closest MC training nodes, then interpolate (or extrapolate) the values to the actual telescope pointing for each event.
Currently the training sample pointings are obtained from the path to the training sample(provided via config file). A better solution would be to add to the .sav files an array with the zenith and azimuth values of the MC training nodes.
