In this test we get frequency domain noise-free signals at detector directly.
What I did: To make my data exactly the same to Hunter's test data, I delete 'adding white Gaussian noise' step, which doesn't show up in Hunter's code.(The method of making test data is written in ‘gen_benchmark_pe.py’) And if I add this step, my data will look so different from Hunter's.
I fail to generate a time-domain waveform whose amplitude comes to zero quickly after merging. But, I made waveform the same to Hunter's way and the whitened waveforms do look similar.
In Hunter's test data, the amplitude also doesn't come to zero after merging(as you can see in Fig. 1), and there is a vibration, although it is not obvious. I think whitening step reduces it.
### (iii) Comparison of their performances in VItamin:
Except the first one, all the corner plots from my data are very similar to Hunter's.
