Inconsistent results from the Hawkes demo

[chennanaresearch]

Hi there,
I cloned the whole folder about Hawkes point process and ran it in Anaconda. However, I got a quite different result from the results shown in your ipynb file.

When I ran the file "Hawkes-demo.ipynb", I got "alpha_opt = 0.9979165614874713, alpha_true = 0.5" and "lambda_opt = 0.2278797493605351, lambda_true = 1".

Why the estimation result is so far away from the true value?

Thanks,
Ruby

Which branch of the code were you running?

It would be best to use the branch redqueen-solution-2 and use the solution scripts from there-in.

I am mentioning about the "Hawkes-demo.ipynb" in the "hawkes" folder.
It seems that this file was deleted in the branch redqueen-solution-2 https://github.com/Networks-Learning/LVIV-2018/tree/redqueen-solution-2. Is there something wrong with the prior demo file?
Thanks.

I just merged master into the branch and the Notebook should show up in that branch as well.

Hope that helps.

I'm assuming that resolved the problem.
