&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Fixes&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul class="simple"&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;the ORDER BY clause of the SpreadSheetQuery transformer
got applied to the input spreadsheet rather than final one,
screwing up the WHERE clause&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;the abstract class AbstractProcessWekaInstanceWithModel
did not clear the internal model when its options got
changed; affected transformers: MekaClassifying,
Weka/MOAClassifying/Clustering&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Modifications&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul class="simple"&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;SpreadSheetTable now uses plugin architecture for
processing/plotting cols/rows/cells in its popup menus&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;Min/Max heatmap feature generators can output the
position now as well&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;spreadsheet plot generators can generate plot name
now also based on range of cell values&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;Excel and ODF spreadsheet readers now support
"no" or "custom" headers&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;ForLoop source can output integers now as array
as well&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;the message of the Stop control actor can contain
variables now as well&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Additions&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul class="simple"&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;added NewHeatmap source to adams-heatmap&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;added HeatmapGetValue/HeatmapSetValue transformers
to adams-heatmap&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;added VotedImbalance meta-classifier to adams-weka
classifier generates X number of resampled datasets
from input data, limiting size to smallest class, building
base-classifier on them and then uses Vote meta-classifier
for making predictions&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;added PromptUser boolean flow condition, asking user
whether to execute conditional actor or not&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;added "Append datasets" and "Merge datasets" to the
main menu of the adams-weka modulel; uses wizards
to guide the user for combining datasets&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;added specialized pages to the wizard: SelectFilePage,
SelectMultipleFilesPage, WekaSelectDatasetPage,
WekaSelectMultipleDatasetsPage&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;added new (optional) Look'n'Feel: PgsLookAndFeel,
which can be activated in the GUIHelper.props file&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;new source for outputting integers: IntegerRange
uses a range string and a maximum to generate
these integers (eg "3-5,7,12,18-last")&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Libaries&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul class="simple"&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;MEKA upgraded to 1.7.5 (module: adams-meka)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;WekaExcel upgraded to 1.0.5 (module: adams-weka)
ExcelLoader always omitted last row in spreadsheets&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Fixes&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul class="simple"&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;Weka Explorer plugins FixedClassifierErrorPlot, ThresholdCurve now
free up memory when the dialog gets closed&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;SpreadSheetColumnRange/Index sometimes failed in conjunction with variables&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;WhileLoop control actor did not re-apply variables once the looping
started, ie conditions couldn't use variables that got updated within
the loop&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Extensions&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul class="simple"&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;the adams-heatmap module received a fair number of changes:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;heatmaps no longer have the restriction of having a minimum of 0&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;heatmap filters are now prefixed with "Heatmap" to avoid name clashes&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;HeatmapInfo transformer for outputting some info about a heatmap&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;added number of feature generators&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;removed instance generators (and adams-weka dependency)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;Weka filter "Scale" (unsupervised/instance) allows you to scale the
values of a row eg to interval 0 to 1&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;any spreadsheet table should now allow you to not only display a
histogram of a row/column, but also simply plot the row/column values&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;math/boolean expressions now offer additional functions:
cbrt (cube root), sinh, cosh, tanh, atan, atan2, hypot, log10, signum&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;SimplePlot sink - a simplified version of the SequencePlotter sink&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;That's it for now. Have a nice weekend!&lt;/p&gt;</description><category>heatmap</category><category>library</category><category>updates</category><guid>https://adams.cms.waikato.ac.nz/posts/update/</guid><pubDate>Fri, 20 Feb 2015 04:08:27 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title>fixes and additions</title><link>https://adams.cms.waikato.ac.nz/posts/fixes-and-additions/</link><dc:creator>FracPete</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Time for a little round-up of what's happened to ADAMS lately...&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Fixes&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul class="simple"&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;sluggish behavior of flow editor (opening/saving/undo) due to
regression in EnumOption option handling class (finding/registering
property editor on demand was very slow)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;obtaining subsets from Notes objects only returned the first element
of each type&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;TryCatch control actor properly flushes the tokens of its subflow
when an error occurs&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;Upper/LowerCase conversions take locale into account&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;ImageProcessor tool works properly with the revamped ImageFileChooser dialog&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;PreviewBrowser tool displays arrays in a more sensible fashion&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;WekaFileReader didn't output an Instances object if no rows present&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Addtions&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul class="simple"&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;print support got added to the PDF viewer (tool and sink)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;ImageHistogram sink added to adams-imaging&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;additional actors for the adams-heatmap module
* HeatmapArrayStatistic transformer
* HeatmapLocateObjects transformer
* HeatmapHistogram sink&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;Heatmap viewer can display a histogram of current heatmap&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
