One more clarification to my question: I'm trying to reverse engineer the plumbing of the NuPIC platform. I think I get the high level architecture and have been following the discussion on how nupic will be refactored. I can also follow the commands to set up and run models, but there seems to be some missing documentation/understanding as far as what are necessary pieces and how they fit together.
For example, this page<https://github.com/numenta/nupic/wiki/Online-Prediction-Framework> talks about the Model interface, but then when I go to run the hotgym example in Cerebro based on its description.py file, I don't see where the Model interface is being implemented. I gleaned that the description.py was actually generated by ExpGenerator.py, but can't figure out where the input to that script is.
