Version 2.3.3 (2012-01-12)

• Fixed: Neural-type algorithm did not work with one input variable.
• Fixed: Import module generates unnecessary debug information while it works with XLS files.
• Fixed: Row IDs can't be used as plot labels.

Version 2.3.2 (2011-12-30)

• Added a new 'Hold-out' parameter called 'missing values' that allows to hold-out and predict automatically all missing values of the target variable. In the previous versions of GMDH Shell this feature was always turned-on that resulted in significant workflow limitations.
• Fixed: Plot tab visualization failure after clicking at 'Apply model' button.

Version 2.3.1 (2011-12-17)

• The Import module can now transpose the data files that store variables in rows - into the columns. (Since GMDH Shell works only with variables in columns).

Version 2.2 (2011-10-30)

Repeated processing of any project now often produce slightly different models depending on how parallel tasks were distributed across CPU cores.
• Solver: Estimation of model coefficients using Robust regression (locked to MAE selection criterion).
• File explorer: Pie chart, 3D Bubbles (OpenGL required), expanded Statistics table.
• Preprocessor: Handling of spikes.

• New command line keys for batch-mode execution.
• Improved standard templates.
• Minor changes in user interface.

• Fixed: Failure to export some formulas that was loaded using Load simulation button.
• Minor changes in graphical interface.
