How is beta calibrated? #230

Closed kgustafs closed 4 years ago

kgustafs commented 4 years ago

For interpretability and extensions, user would like to know how "beta" was calibrated to the default beta=0.015. I cannot find this in the code or docs, though it is possible I am missing something obvious.

Thank you Kyle
