How come Anki cant update it itself? Is SM-17 just a different set of exponential-decay functions from SM-2? Is that even copyrightable?
Also, if Anki is open-source, I'm surprised that there is no unofficial port that uses SM-17. But maybe I'm just ignorant of how much work that would involve.
- SirensOfTitan 5y agoWoz goes into detail about the SM-17 algorithm here: https://supermemo.guru/wiki/Algorithm_SM-17 https://supermemo.guru/wiki/Algorithm_SM-17 ... he's built these through decades of thinking of and tinkering and working on this singular problem. SM-2 is from 1987 for SM for DOS 1.0, and is fairly simplistic comparatively.
- Asraelite 5y agoSM-17 is much more complicated and also closed source. You would have to spend a while reverse-engineering it.
