-----------------------------------------
Hi Ikumasa,
I am reviewing the patch right now and I wanted to say: good job!
I noticed that both DataLoader.parseString() and DataConverter.convert() don't
take into account that the dataset is in "regression" mode. They treat the
label as being categorical !
Did you try to run BuildForest and TestForest on a regression dataset ?
