BECCA 0.4.3 release

[Brandon Rohrer]

BECCA version 0.4.3 is out this week. Here's what's new:

• Major change: Groups are eliminated. Features are created directly now using

  the old group-creation algorithm. This in turn spawned a large number

  of minor changes to support it. The end result is that features in the higher levels

  of the hierarchy tend to be created more gracefully, make more sense

  to a human user, and naturally terminate. The number of user-selected parameters

  in BECCA also went down a bit.

  • The maximum possible size for large variables (the co-activity estimate and

  the model) is allocated on startup. This helps prevent running out of memory

  mid-run.

  • The learner was renamed actor to more accurately reflect its function

  and to provide symmetry with perceiver in the sense of “perception-action

  loops".

Soon you'll be able to download it from Matt's GitHub site:
