BECCA 0.4.2 release

[Brandon Rohrer]

BECCA is (just barely) better than ever! Version 0.4.2 is out this week. Here are some of the changes:

• A chapter describing the operation of the reinforcement learner has been added to the Users Guide.
  
• The image-based tasks all implement center-surround filtering as a preprocessing step.
  
• Perceiver parameters have been adjusted to produce more intuitive features in the image-based tasks.
  
• Features in the image-based tasks are displayed as receptive fields, resulting in a higher-contrast format.
  
• Mutual coactivity has been modified to be the minimum, rather than the product, of two coactivities.
  

By sometime around Friday (September 28, 2012) you'll be able to download it from Matt's GitHub site:
