1. Announcements

• Welcome to TE, AM
  
• Anything else? No
  

2. Updates/status reports

• Student updates: PT was trying different window sizes. Currently tuning hyperparameters.
• Any other updates? No
  

3. Reading and discussion

• Readings:
• We read https://planet4589.org/space/astro/web/astrolist.html, referring to examples in https://planet4589.org/space/astro/lists/astro.html.
• In a future meeting we can read about kidneys depending on attendance profile: We have read from https://www.mdpi.com/2077-0383/9/2/572, up to "Finally, Table 4 provides a summary" in section 3.
• In a future meeting we can continue discussing the "SatType scheme" page 
• ... at https://www.planet4589.org  >  https://planet4589.org/space/index.html  >  https://planet4589.org/space/gcat/web/intro > https://planet4589.org/space/gcat/web/intro/type.html. We have gotten through "Byte 4" section, row  "E", and can start after that next time.
  
• NOTE: the "SatType scheme" page describes the column labeled "Type" in the relevant tables, particularly https://planet4589.org/space/gcat/data/cat/satcat.html (thanks to Planet4589 for clarifying this a bit in the documentation).

• We earlier started: https://www.newthingsunderthesun.com/pub/4xnyepnn/release/9. We read up to "In their paper, firms use these technologies to produce a fixed amount of output every period." MC later requested putting our comments in the minutes for later review - good idea. Maybe we can time share across 2 readings next time, and thus get to some material from this source.
• https://towardsdatascience.com/understanding-auc-roc-curve-68b2303cc9c5 might be good to read at some point. We should evaluate that.
  

• Here are some generic questions about articles (and videos):
• What is the source?
• What is the most significant advance in the human knowledge presented in the paper?
• Why is that advance important?
• What important questions arise from the paper for future research?
• What important questions would it be nice if the paper answered, but does not answer?
• What does the paper present that is novel (no one else has provided that before)?
• What is the relevance of the paper to our satellite research goals?
• Questions from the group?

 3. Completed readings include numerous prior items as well as these:

• 5/12/2023: We read https://planet4589.org/space/astro/web/astrolist.html and looked at https://planet4589.org/space/astro/lists/astro.html for examples. It appears that the date of the first flight for each astronaut is NOT given, even though the rows are in chronological order!
• 3/17/23: We read https://planet4589.org/space/astro/web/astrolist.html.
• We finished section 6 of MR paper (C:\Users\jdberleant\Dropbox\research\SpaceTravelMetric-b6-5-16\PapersAndPresentations\byOthers\MatthewRoughanDraft.pdf). This completes the parts that we planned to read. 
• Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S9o66fH_sgo (about MOXIE device which converts CO2 to oxygen). We then read a bit more about MOXIE on wikipedia.
• Https://www.theatlantic.com/science/archive/2019/07/we-need-new-science-progress/594946 on "progress studies." Completed 9/30/22.
• Ryan et al., "A Forgotten Moment in Physiology: the Lovelace Woman in Space Program (1960-1962)", 2009. Completed 7/22/22.
• Various previous papers.
