Research direction

Start with the repository README and check its dependency references against the current project setup. Update the outdated dependency information, including the note about the logi-size branch of individual; the README should describe the current dependencies. The issue says to do this after submission, so confirm that prerequisite before starting.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

The README is out of date. (e.g. we are no longer depending on the logi-size branch of individual). Should update this once we've submitted.
