Model Fitting Runs Not Perfectly Reproducible

[SimWdm]

As pointed out by by @rdrighetto in #8 (comment), model fitting on the same data with the same random seed yields fitting and validation curves that are very similar but not identical as expected.

I found that the random rotations of the subtomos during model fitting are not seeded which is a likely explanation. I will implement proper seeding in a new branch and see if this fixes the issue.

Hi again,

As stated in my last reply in #8, I was running comparisons between the current stable release based on MRC subtomograms and the torch_subtomos branch.
I ran the test 4 times in total, 2x with MRC and 2x with torch subtomos, all else being equal. Of the three runs that went to completion, all results look similar and have similar training and validation curves, but are not identical, including both runs of the torch_subtomos branch. This might be explained by the random rotations not being seeded, as you found out, @SimWdm.

Please let me know if I can help with more tests or if you need more details!

Hi Ricardo, just a quick heads up: Unfortunately I have not yet had the time to look into this as I am currently pushing towards a paper deadline. Please be assured that I have not forgotten about this issue!

Hi Simon, no worries, take your time and good luck the paper!
