FSRS Parameters

Hi 👋🏼

I was wondering if Matt could provide a brief write up about the default FSRS parameters in Mochi. I've had great success studying 550 cards for an exam, but my inner nerd wants to know why these parameters were chosen, as they don't seem to be inline with any of the official FSRS versions (1 through 6). Also, are there plans for an optimizer?

Many thanks.

Hi Sayed,

The default params in Mochi were simply the latest default params for FSRS at the time it was implemented in Mochi (v6.0). It seems that they have been updated now to v6.1.

I do have plans to eventually add the optimizer but I don't have a timeline for when that will be available yet.
