GSoC Week 14

-

Last week, I mainly worked on formatting SBSCL and making some small updates. We also merged the formatting PR to the main repository. Here’s the quick review of the weekly meeting with the updates made:


  • In the meeting, we decided to merge the existing PR (with stochastic simulation updates) after updating the SBMLTestSuiteTest and StochasticTestSuiteTest to identify tests automatically and also add a check to verify that the file is valid sbml or not.

  • This was updated to the repository adding a method isValidSBML() to check whether the file was valid SBML and also the functionality of detecting the .xml files from the directory given.

  • After this update and some requested changes by mentors, the PR #54 was merged to the main repository with complete support of stochastic simulation.

  • We then decided to update the formatting of SBSCL and add config files for IntelliJ and Eclipse so that developers can use any for formatting the library. The work for this was done in the sbscl-formatting branch.

  • I added the Java code styles from the Google Style Guide under the dev/ folder for both IntelliJ and Eclipse, and also added the guidelines for how to update the formatting as per the particular IDE.

  • Also, the line separators were updated to the Linux style (in FERN where Windows settings were used), and C-style array declarations were fixed with this.

  • I made a pull request PR #56 with all formatting updates, and on updating the requested changes by mentors, we merged the PR to the main repository with SBSCL now properly formatted.

  • I also submitted the SBML Test Suite models results to the SBML Test Suite Database, which also confirmed that SBSCL had outstanding results as compared to most of the other libraries. You can view the SBSCL page at this link. Below are the results by SBSCL.



These are the main work updates from last week. Also, I have done most of the documentation updates (ready for merge) which I will be discussing in detail in my upcoming blog, so stay tuned for that😉! However, you can give it a look at the update-docs branch of my forked repository.


Regards!

GSoC Week 11

Last week, I mainly worked on passing the current failing stochastic tests and ran Travis CI successfully. With this, we also started working on refactoring the SBMLinterpreter class, which has become quite a big class doing many things. Here is the quick summary of the updates from the weekly meeting with the work updates: In the meeting, we mainly discussed the failing stochastic tests. We decided to work on them and check whether the results were converging towards the pre-defined results on increasing the number of simulations or not. If they don't, then it was for sure that there is some issue in the implementation. So, I started working on that, and the small issue I found was that while comparing with the pre-defined results, the wrong column was considered from the pre-defined results, which made some tests fail. It is fixed now through this commit . After this, on further checking, we saw that some of the tests were like failing all the time regardless of the number of sim

This week I mainly worked on adding the support of the stochastic simulation to SBSCL. And, it is excellent that the simulation is giving great results with most tests passing. This addition of stochastic simulation has improved SBSCL supporting most of the simulation types now, which makes it a fully-featured simulation library. Now, here’s the summary of the work done this week with the topics discussed in the meeting: Mentors suggested writing the work done overview of the week before some hours of the meeting so that they can go through and provide their views in the meeting properly. We then mainly discussed the stochastic simulation implementation (using FERN) and the runtime due to simulating many times to get the mean and standard deviation. We decided to test all the models from the stochastic test suite and update the result format according to the test suite results. I worked on this mainly, and now the output format of the result is updated. The new test file StochasticTest

  Last blog with the work updates of GSoC 2020 after nearly completing the great project with great people💖 (it was just awesome). Will be surely sharing my complete experience of GSoC in another blog. So, coming to the final updates made to SBSCL last week with the meeting updates, here are the points: As discussed in the last blog, I updated the complete documentation of the library using maven and also updated the website ( https://draeger-lab.github.io/SBSCL/ ). Also, updated the README by adding the description from the new features and other minor fixes. Made a pull request (PR #57 ) with all the documentation updates. Last week, we could not have a proper meeting due to internship tests at my university, and I had just met one mentor for 20 minutes talk. He suggested me to add some guidelines for using the library with the diagrams showing the workflow of the library. So, I added the UserGuidelines.md explaining how to simulate different models using SBSCL. I also added the s
