October?? Really??
#COVID
- Getting Google Translate to work in Python. First, install:
- Still working on getting Google Translate to work without the os value set (which is misbehaving). This looks to be the answer (from stackoverflow, of course):
# The way I think it should be done
client = language.LanguageServiceClient.from_service_account_json("/path/to/file.json")
# Google seems to want this value set though, for portability across environments?
os.environ["GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS"]="/path/to/file.json"- The most recent Google documentation on this requires a storage object, and then doesn’t show how to use it?
# Explicitly use service account credentials by specifying the private key # file. storage_client = storage.Client.from_service_account_json('service_account.json')- This worked!
from google.cloud import translate_v2 as translate
translate_client = translate.Client.from_service_account_json("credentials.json")
text = u"So let us begin anew--remembering on both sides that civility is not a sign of weakness, and sincerity is always subject to proof. Let us never negotiate out of fear. But let us never fear to negotiate."
target = "de"
# Text can also be a sequence of strings, in which case this method
# will return a sequence of results for each text.
result = translate_client.translate(text, target_language=target)
print(u"Text: {}".format(result["input"]))
print(u"Translation: {}".format(result["translatedText"]))
print(u"Detected source language: {}".format(result["detectedSourceLanguage"]))

Text: So let us begin anew--remembering on both sides that civility is not a sign of weakness, and sincerity is always subject to proof. Let us never negotiate out of fear. But let us never fear to negotiate. Translation: Beginnen wir also neu - denken wir auf beiden Seiten daran, dass Höflichkeit kein Zeichen von Schwäche ist und Aufrichtigkeit immer einem Beweis unterliegt. Lasst uns niemals aus Angst verhandeln. Aber lasst uns niemals Angst haben zu verhandeln. Detected source language: en

- Here’s round-tripping to Arabic:
from google.cloud import translate_v2 as translate
translate_client = translate.Client.from_service_account_json("path_to_credentials_file.json")
text = u"So let us begin anew--remembering on both sides that civility is not a sign of weakness, and sincerity is always subject to proof. Let us never negotiate out of fear. But let us never fear to negotiate."
target = "ar"
source = "en"
# Text can also be a sequence of strings, in which case this method
# will return a sequence of results for each text.
result = translate_client.translate(text, target_language=target)
print(u"Text: {}".format(result["input"]))
print(u"Translation: {}".format(result["translatedText"]))
print(u"Detected source language: {}".format(result["detectedSourceLanguage"]))
text = u"{}".format(result["translatedText"])
result = translate_client.translate(text, target_language=source)
print(u"Text: {}".format(result["input"]))
print(u"Translation: {}".format(result["translatedText"]))
print(u"Detected source language: {}".format(result["detectedSourceLanguage"]))

But let's not be afraid to negotiate. Detected source language: ar
- Note that I could get this working with V2, but not V3. I am not sure that I’ve done the following install though, and I’m kinda afraid to break things
pip install --upgrade google-cloud-translate
GOES
- More working through the algorithm. I want to make plots for the normal (rotation) vector to see how that looks. That could also be plotted in 3D. Hmmm.
- So that’s done, and it’s not as smooth as it should be. Here’s the reference frame rotated through 180 degrees on the left, the matching rotation in the middle, and the simplified reaction wheels with the rotation axis (cyan) on the right:
- That cyan plot really bothers me. The results aren’t bad (vehicle), but I wonder if it’s because there are two choices that are equally good and it’s alternating between them? Let’s print out the name of the axis and the runner’s up (sorted by angle):
x angle = -1.00, y angle = -1.00, z angle = -1.00 z angle = 10.05, x angle = 10.03, y angle = 1.41 x angle = 10.11, z angle = 10.05, y angle = 2.02 z angle = 10.27, x angle = 9.95, y angle = 2.69 z angle = 10.03, x angle = 9.97, y angle = 1.87 z angle = 10.02, x angle = 9.96, y angle = 2.10 z angle = 10.00, x angle = 9.92, y angle = 2.25 z angle = 9.99, x angle = 9.85, y angle = 2.32 z angle = 9.96, x angle = 9.76, y angle = 2.34 z angle = 9.94, x angle = 9.66, y angle = 2.40 z angle = 9.91, x angle = 9.57, y angle = 2.59 z angle = 9.88, x angle = 9.54, y angle = 3.00 z angle = 9.85, x angle = 9.61, y angle = 3.67 x angle = 9.81, z angle = 9.81, y angle = 4.60 z angle = 11.31, x angle = 9.32, y angle = 6.58 z angle = 9.73, x angle = 9.45, y angle = 4.32 x angle = 9.90, z angle = 9.69, y angle = 5.66 z angle = 11.64, x angle = 9.10, y angle = 7.57
- The x and z axis are almost identical. Would it make sense to average the closest? Let’s try something more extreme:
x angle = -1.00, y angle = -1.00, z angle = -1.00 y angle = 14.11, z angle = 14.11, x angle = 12.82 z angle = 20.31, x angle = 17.04, y angle = 14.19 y angle = 17.53, z angle = 13.48, x angle = 13.01 z angle = 14.25, y angle = 13.54, x angle = 6.81 y angle = 13.78, z angle = 12.22, x angle = 6.76 z angle = 12.27, y angle = 10.56, x angle = 6.80 z angle = 10.82, y angle = 8.63, x angle = 7.64 z angle = 10.29, x angle = 9.36, y angle = 6.14 x angle = 10.28, z angle = 10.00, y angle = 3.70 z angle = 9.85, x angle = 9.85, y angle = 3.70 z angle = 10.29, x angle = 8.94, y angle = 5.09 z angle = 10.82, y angle = 8.09, x angle = 7.32 z angle = 11.50, y angle = 10.74, x angle = 5.69 y angle = 13.27, z angle = 12.22, x angle = 6.12 y angle = 13.54, z angle = 13.02, x angle = 4.16 y angle = 14.09, z angle = 13.21, x angle = 6.16 z angle = 15.23, y angle = 14.19, x angle = 12.12
- 10:00 Meeting with Vadim. Went over the code and found that the angle calculation only works properly between two unit (vectors of the same length?). That fixed the contribution problems I was having. So that’s one serious bug fixed. Vadim is going to look at folding in the changes, and I’m going to work on getting this to work with the six reaction wheel version.
- Status report. Done!
NESDIS
- Finish paperwork! Done
