User:Nat/Targeting Research Codename M79

M79 is a codename for my new targeting research. If you are around Eternal Rumble ages, please note that this research has nothing to do with Marshmallow.

Version

• 0001: Basic proof-of-concept. Use k-d tree to store data. Cluster size of 5; dimensions: current angle offset, velocity, distance.
• 0002: Cluster size of 150; exponential moving average of 50. Dimensions: current angle offset, lateral velocity, distance, acceleration, time since direction change, time since accl, wall distance forward and wall distance backward. (Fixed bug in combining factor since 0001) Note: seems to do much better against simple random mover, but a bit worst against more advanced mover. As expected from using more data.
• 0003: Change angle factor to deltaAngle/MEA (should not affect score, since TC always fire at 3), weight firing wave ten times the non-firing wave.
