July 20 - July 24
Since PGmeans gives me information on the optimal clusters it calculates and not information on which nodes are in which cluster, I worked on creating some code that would give me that information. I decided to write a program that will calculate the cluster each node is closest to and output the closest cluster, the node number (1,2,...,max), and node information (x,y,z,v) to a textfile. I decided to write this program in Matlab so that it could be added to the Matlab script that I previously wrote. Furthermore, I managed to get my Matlab results integrated with the UAS code. Basically for this step, I replaced the Kmeans data structures used for the clusters with the data structures I created to store the values I was getting from Matlab via the PGmeans code. I also started working on and finished completing the abstract, introduction, and related work sections of my final paper. This week, I also gave a presentation at the REU Brown Bag Lunch. I personally thought I did a good job.
Meetings
- Motion Planning Group
- REU Brown Bag Lunch: Student Presentations Pt. 2
- Full Group Meeting
Places to Eat
- Ninfa's (I had fajitas but I personally like the ones from Chipotle better)
Fun Stuff
- Saw HARRY POTTER AGAIN this time with the research crew. It was a great movie so I didn't mind seeing it for a second time.
- Tornado or Funnel whatever you want to call it touched down in College Station. This was a very unusual situation since I did not anticipate it coming and at the time, I was headed to the lab. Yes, I was scared, but I survived.
