Hello Dr. Geijtenbeek,
Thank you for developing SconePy and making it available. I ve been experimenting with running optimizations via the SconePy and have two questions:
Reflexes through SconePy: Is it possible to call and configure all reflexes (i.e., all the reflex elements normally available within SCONE s scenario files) directly through SconePy? If so, could you outline or point me toward how to do so?
External Control Model: If our control model is not contained in the SCONE scenario but is instead implemented in Python, how can we incorporate that model into the CmaOptimizer workflow? In other words, is there a recommended way to feed control outputs computed by our Python code back into the SCONE optimizer?
Any tips, examples, or documentation links on these points would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your time and support!
Best regards,
Ali Forouzanfar

Re: SconePy
With the upcoming version of SCONE (2.4.1), you can change the reflex gain and offset of any Reflex in real-time, via the SconePy interface. This SCONE version is planned for release in the upcoming weeks. If you wish to try it before that, you can contact me via email for a preview release.
If you wish to use the CMA-ES optimizer in SCONE, scripting is only supported via Lua and not via Python. The Lua scripting interface has all the functionality required to develop custom controllers, including an interface for defining reflexes with neural delays.
