FSRS short term scheduling

Anki FSRS

Hi,
I was wondering what the status is on FSRS doing short term scheduling ?
I could not find any recent information on this in this forum.
There seemed to be various problems and I was curious what the current assessment is about it working.

Also on a practical note: do you use the short term feature at the moment ? Meaning leaving intervals empty. Should it do a good job at scheduling ?

FSRS has no model for “short”-term (intraday, sub-1d) memory. No, it is not recommended that you leave your learning/relearning steps empty.

TL;DR:

Key Takeaways

  1. FSRS-5 primarily models long-term memory but considers the impact of short-term reviews on long-term retention.
  2. Short-term reviews significantly affect short-term memory, but modeling this is complex and a comprehensive short-term memory model is not yet available.
  3. In Anki, if you previously had non-blank learning steps, it’s not recommended to switch to blank steps when using FSRS. Maintaining appropriate learning steps is still important.
  4. FSRS Helper can recommend learning step settings based on personal statistics, offering a data-driven optimization approach.
