The rest of this paper is organized as follows. Section 2 first reviews LASSI[r,q], then presents test applications of LASSI[r,q] which examine its convergence with respect to r and q and the nature of the converged wave function in each case. Sec. 3 then introduces LASSIS, which reflects those observations in the form of a novel model-space recipe which is designed to overcome the difficulties of LASSI[r,q] in an automated way, as well as LASSIS-PDFT.
