# Fall Semester Goals

- `x3ptools` and `bulletxtrctr`
    - \> 95% test coverage (if possible)
    - Results database - data provenance
    - Docker or packrat to ensure environment reproducibility
- Truthiness study data collection
- Paper with Miranda (Creative Component):    
one-hot Convolutional NN for shoeprint feature recognition

# Fall semester plans: 
 - Shoes
    + Wrap up shoe analysis using edges and SURF 
    + Compare the performance with other methods such as phase only correlations, Fourier-Mellin transformation correlation
    + Do analysis with CSAFE shoe data
    + Submit papers regarding shoe analysis soon!
   
- Research on "uncertainty pyramid" with Steve and Hari at NIST   
 - Glass analysis with Sam
    + Exploratory analysis 
    + Various covariance estimations
    + Submit papers!
   
- Working on book chapters of glass and shoes funded by ROpenSci Fellowship

# Analysis result with CSAFE shoe data 
- All nike shoes with size of 8.5 and 10.5 at time 4 (6 months)
- KM (210) : Between replicates within IDs
- KNM (180) : Between IDs
- Methods : Edge matching with three circles and RF for score, phase-only correlation (POC), Fourier-Mellin transform correlation (FMTC)
