What’s new in v1.0?
The new version of the software has been completely re-designed and includes a nice dark mode! Version 1.0 also features a simulation mode in the front end, so that anyone can test the performance of different machine learning models. The biggest challenge was to develop a new data model. Results of the machine need to be stored as efficiently as possible (a model can easily produce a Tb of data) while at the same time, the results should be transparent and reproducible.
