First we'll need to decide how to handle the current `S1_ongoing.txt` file, since it's formatting is an outlier among the other experimental dipole .txt files and represents a rare use-case...

Closing in favor of #617

The RMSE is indeed fairly small (on the order of 1e-3 nAm), however, I've played around a bit with `fmin_cobyla`'s `rhoend` parameter and it doesn't seem to help. I've limited...

The weighted RMSE definitely tends to decrease, albeit in a very inefficient and roundabout manner. COBYLA seems to find an obscure combination of weight and sigma parameters that decreases the...

I probably won't be able to get to it this week, but will try to follow up with a plot soon!

Adding a note that once this issue is resolved, we should update the optimization tests as suggested [here](https://github.com/jonescompneurolab/hnn-core/pull/446#discussion_r813266971) and [here](https://github.com/jonescompneurolab/hnn-core/pull/446#discussion_r813270737) by @ntolley.

I believe the current optimization routine has moved past this.

Sounds good to me. Idk why we need redundant copies of `times` passed around if they are all the same.

I like the idea of having multiple test datasets. Here's a list of possible ground-truth test datasets based off of drives/biases explored in the tutorials that we could create. Obviously,...

Maybe we can consolidate all of these seed + legacy mode related issues under one issue?
