Upcoming Feature and Change Feedback Center

Hello scientists!

The Project Discovery team is extremely satisfied and impressed with Capsuleer interest for this scientific endeavor, you have been doing a great job so far!

However, in order to reduce the exploitability of the feature, we, in collaboration with MMOS and the HPA, have decided to stop calculating Accuracy Rating for the community consensus. Instead, we will increase the rate of training examples you get, for which you get an immediate rating.

This is only the first step in our attempt to improve Project Discovery and it's data quality, as we might introduce further changes to our scoring procedure. This change will also significantly reduce the heavy load on the MMOS servers and should ensure a smoother experience for everyone.

Feel free to leave any feedback and suggestions here, and may the cytoplasm be with you.

EDIT: This change should roll out at 15:00 UTC, keep in mind this is only a change to the MMOS API so we expect no downtime. The Project Discovery client will be updated after Easter vacations.

Excellent change! Could you also take a look at the presentation of example/training samples? In the in-game channel we noticed that for some reason every single control image is now Nucleus or Nucleoli. This skews accuracy heavily because they are easily recognized. They seem to be mostly in the 300-500 range.

This is also tied to another request which I am sure you already have on the table, remove the sample number in the lower right corner. Only show it after one presses submit because people now know that they are control images and will thus vote in a specific way.

Also since this morning the PD servers have been stable as anything. No problems whatsoever.

Keep up the good work o7

Good changes! <3

Keep up the good works! And please keep watching the "March Update feedback thread" where numerous suggestions have been made since the feature became available to all players.

Some people seem to still be getting their rating affected by community consensus.
Are old slides still going to affect rating as they get processed?

Good change. Not only because of intended effects, but also because sometimes you really need a few more training examples to check yourself and filter out misconceptions.

I also hole that some of the samples will be reviewed by HPA in the future, re-calculating accuracy in the process and enabling better sorting of out results.

How will they know which ones don't affect accuracy?

Right now the sample number is a hint. Apart from that, the control samples tend to be really clear and obvious, as opposed to the vast majority of the normal samples.

Be cool if the images loaded without having to wait 1 minute and the transmission errors for submission. Hopefully this update addressed these problems as well.

Sweetness... I can finally work toward getting that combat armor suit :)
