singular optical covariance matrix #78

Open Pachacoti opened 2 months ago

Pachacoti commented 2 months ago

The following error is encountered when I tried to run

>>> fit_sim = fit.FitSimulation(init_sol, obs_df, init_cov, n_iter_max=n_iter_max, de_kernel=de_kernel, nongrav_info=nongrav_info)

for Apophis:

[[ 4.0e-08 -8.0e-08]
 [-8.0e-08  1.6e-07]]

I took a look, and it seems that Apophis has an observation with perfect correlation in the observation database, which leads to a singular observation covariance. I would just remove that observation from the dataframe for now
