Mar 1, 2025March 2025 monthly summary for xpsi: Delivered a critical bug fix and documentation update to improve stability when time-invariant mode is enabled. The fix for time-invariant handling in Everywhere class (xpsi) and related background marginalization ensures correct behavior of phase bins and leaves, with the tutorial updated accordingly. Release v3.0.5 was tagged to reflect these changes (commit: d0ef043553e02ff63601497ff681dfc46a801f4a). Overall impact: increased reliability for time-invariant configurations, reduced user-reported edge-case errors, and clearer guidance for users and developers. Technologies demonstrated include debugging and root-cause analysis, Git-based version control, code-tuning in the Everywhere path, and documentation synchronization.
