Hi Ozgur, That is what I used the toolkit for in this example, yes, but the goal of the project is to make it easier for people who are interested in trying NuPIC on visual problems.
I am not an expert on the swarming algorithm either, but what I wanted more than just finding the best parameter combination is to get the results for all combinations so I can plot them and try to get a better intuitive feel for what's the spatial pooler is doing as I attempt to get a feel for what limits its performance.
