Measurements

Readings taken at the bench, recorded separately from the engine's predictions. A prediction and a measurement are different kinds of claim, and the archive does not combine them.

No sessions recorded

Across the systems this project inherited — the Matrix database, StanBot's stores and the optimiser archive — there are four rows of measured data against roughly thirty-four thousand rows of machine search.

The engine can therefore predict a great deal with almost nothing to check itself against. Until readings are recorded, its results are arithmetic rather than evidence, and the calculation pages say so.

What can be recorded

The quantities a session can hold. The first seven groups came from the Matrix bench; the rest describe the apparatus itself and were absent, which is why earlier readings could not be matched to a prediction.
