⚡ Optimize Least-Squares Velocity Estimation - #7
Conversation
- Replaced manual normal equations solver with `np.linalg.lstsq` for better numerical robustness. - Improved efficiency by avoiding the creation of the large intermediate `gDotInv` matrix. - Preserved existing `sig_m` uncertainty estimation logic by calculating `gInv` specifically for the 2x2 design matrix. - Verified syntax and linting compliance.

Closing: superseded by #22 which makes the same lstsq change to analysis.py but also retains gInv for uncertainty estimation. |
…P_DWLD from template Reconciliation debt: Option B (pre-download via igs_downloader, skip in-BPE FTP_DWLD) is half-built — template still ships 000 FTP_DWLD and campaign_builder.download_igs_products is defined but never called. Production PAGENET PCF already has no download step (matches Option B). RH-007 strips FTP_DWLD from the template, wires the pre-download into prepare_campaign(), and adds a pre-flight product-existence/naming check (gaps #4/#6/#7).
💡 What: The optimization replaces the manual matrix inversion and explicit calculation of the
gDotInvmatrix withnp.linalg.lstsq.🎯 Why:
np.linalg.lstsq(typically using QR or SVD) is more robust against ill-conditioned matrices than solving the normal equations directly, which squares the condition number.(2, N)intermediate matrixgDotInv. For large datasets, this results in significant memory allocation and extra computation. By usinglstsq, we solve for the model parameters directly and avoid this allocation.📊 Measured Improvement:$O(N)$ vs $O(1)$ intermediate storage) and improved numerical robustness. Baseline measurement in the current environment was limited by missing dependencies, but the optimization follows standard numerical linear algebra best practices for least-squares problems.
The performance improvement is theoretically significant for large
