Hello everyone! Today I released mlpack 3.4.2, but I did it a little bit differently than in the past. I just clicked a button! In the past releases have required a lot of manual effort on my part, but over the past several months we've worked on automatic release scripts for ensmallen, and today I adapted and used those for the first time with mlpack. So, when I merged https://github.com/mlpack/mlpack/pull/2681, basically everything was done automatically, except this email. :)
If you want the new version, it will be available in your package manager soon (hopefully), or you can download the source here: https://www.mlpack.org/files/mlpack-3.4.2.tar.gz Be sure to check out the website https://www.mlpack.org/, which now has integrated notebook support so you can play around with mlpack without even downloading it! Anyway, here's a changelog: * Added Mean Absolute Percentage Error. * Added Softmin activation function as layer in ann/layer. * Fix spurious ARMA_64BIT_WORD compilation warnings on 32-bit systems (#2665). They're pretty minor changes, but it is a patch release, after all. The next release of mlpack will be mlpack 4.0.0 (unless of course we find some critical issue that's easy to backport), and this will remove boost::serialization, replacing it with the cereal serialization library. We're hopeful that this will improve compilation times and make the dependency footprint of mlpack a little bit lighter. You can see some of the changes we're planning on merging into 4.0.0 here: https://github.com/mlpack/mlpack/milestone/30 Anyway, I hope the new release is useful for you, and as always, if you encounter any issues please feel free to post an issue on Github or get in touch via the chat channel, or even join the video meetup. Have a great day! Thanks, Ryan -- Ryan Curtin | "That rug really tied the room together."
