    public class MOARegressing<T extends moa.classifiers.Classifier & moa.classifiers.Regressor>
    extends AbstractProcessMOAInstanceWithModel<T>
    Uses a serialized MOA model to perform predictions on the data being passed through.
    The following order is used to obtain the model (when using AUTO):
    1. model file present?
    2. source actor present?
    3. storage item present?
    Optionally, the model can be updated with data being passed through.

    Input/output:
    - accepts:
       com.yahoo.labs.samoa.instances.Instance
    - generates:
       adams.flow.container.MOAPredictionContainer
       com.yahoo.labs.samoa.instances.Instance


    Container information:
    - adams.flow.container.MOAPredictionContainer: Instance, Classification, Classification label, Distribution, Range check, Abstention classification, Abstention classification label, Abstention distribution, Report

    -logging-level <OFF|SEVERE|WARNING|INFO|CONFIG|FINE|FINER|FINEST> (property: loggingLevel)
        The logging level for outputting errors and debugging output.
        default: WARNING
     
    -name <java.lang.String> (property: name)
        The name of the actor.
        default: MOARegressing
     
    -annotation <adams.core.base.BaseAnnotation> (property: annotations)

        as it is.
        default: false
     
    -stop-flow-on-error <boolean> (property: stopFlowOnError)
        If set to true, the flow execution at this level gets stopped in case this
        actor encounters an error; the error gets propagated; useful for critical
        actors.
        default: false
     
    -silent <boolean> (property: silent)
        If enabled, then no errors are output in the console; Note: the enclosing
        actor handler must have this enabled as well.
        default: false
     
    -model-loading-type <AUTO|FILE|SOURCE_ACTOR|STORAGE> (property: modelLoadingType)
        Determines how to load the model, in case of AUTO, first the model file
        is checked, then the callable actor and then the storage.
        default: AUTO
     
    -model <adams.core.io.PlaceholderFile> (property: modelFile)
        The file to load the model from, ignored if pointing to a directory.

        default: storage
     
    -on-the-fly <boolean> (property: onTheFly)
        If set to true, the model file is not required to be present at set up time
        (eg if built on the fly), only at execution time.
        default: false
     
    -use-model-reset-variable <boolean> (property: useModelResetVariable)
        If enabled, chnages to the specified variable are monitored in order to
        reset the model, eg when a storage model changed.
        default: false
     
    -model-reset-variable <adams.core.VariableName> (property: modelResetVariable)
        The variable to monitor for changes in order to reset the model, eg when

        Whether to update the model with the Instance (in case its class value isn't
        missing) after making the prediction.
        default: false
