July 2025: Delivered precision improvements to the Gaussian Function in gdtk-uq/gdtk, achieving exact center alignment at parameter m through iterative parameter solving. Hardened input validation for m and ratio to prevent common input-related errors. Added unit tests for the new Gaussian implementation to ensure regression safety. Result: more reliable Gaussian calculations in end-user features and stronger test coverage, enabling more accurate downstream analytics and reducing support issues.

Nov 1, 2024

Nov 2024 focused on codebase hygiene and maintainability for the gdtk repository. Implemented Module Import Path Standardization and Cleanup to enforce package-prefixed imports across modules, updated lmr imports for consistency, and retired deprecated components. Key cleanup included migrating inverse_distance_weighting to shape_sensitivity_core.d and removing grid_deform.d to consolidate dependencies and reduce maintenance burden. These changes improve readability, reduce import-related errors, and streamline onboarding for new contributors.
