Library Creator
The Library Creator is a GUI utility tool that helps to create, modify, and encrypt extensions. From the File Utilities ribbon, select Library Creator.


Library Creator has tabs for entering Basic Info and Optional Files for creating a Plugin.xml, loader.oml, unload.oml, and organized folders that are used as an extension.
Functions include:
- Create an extension from scratch by selecting Basic info and/or Optional.
- Create an extension from scratch by selecting Basic info and/or Optional and encrypt it.
- Load an existing extension, modify, and encrypt it.
- Load an existing extension and encrypt it.
- Encryption of python files is currently not supported.



Invoke mode
Console Invoke mode now supports Descriptionting and Visualization with '-withgui' argument.
compose_console.bat -withgui -continue -f BodeNyquistDescription.oml
Batch mode now supports creating and saving of Descriptions with '-withgui' argument. This requires a graphics card.
Compose_Batch.bat -withgui -f BodeNyquistDescription.oml
Redesign and enhancements of romAI Director *
New UI
A new workflow improves ease of use.


The GUI has the following sections:
1. File Menu: Contains generic actions
2. Top ribbon: Buttons based on the uipushtool feature
3. Tabs: Provide the switching feature
4. Left table: Choose signals and models
5. Canvas: Shows Descriptions
6. Left panels: Show dataset and model information
7. Right panels: Input parameters
8. File information text boxes
The Pre-Processor lets you Description, filter signals, and save data.


The Builder has the following functions:
- Arrange the parameters in tabs
- Add a table for all features that go in training
- Physical Constraints can be selected using a drop-down menu instead of writing


The Post-Processor has the following features:
- Visualize all results (Loss metrics, Accuracy Check, Hyper Planes, and Time Simulation) on a single page and with fewer clicks
- Process more than one model without loading models repeatedly


Heat Map
A Heat Map has been added to show the correlation among features. This helps you select features based on correlation coefficient. The Correlation Coefficient slider helps to get most correlated features.


Auto Exploration
Auto Exploration lets you train multiple models with different hidden layers, activation functions, and neurons.


Stop Training
To stop model training, click the Stop button.


OML
New OML Commands
CAE Readers 3D *
caereader3d now supports extraction of composite layers.
- getlayername3d, getlayerindex3d, getlayerslist3d commands extract composite layer information from CAE result file with model information.
- 'layer' argument in readcae3d can take layer information from the above commands and extract results from the composite layer.
- New caereaderoptions command is supported to set reader properties
. Supported property: 'validatetime'
.. If set to 'true' it will validate that time channel values are not same. This is the default behavior.
.. If set to 'false' it will not validate the time channel information and extract the result with NaN when there is no result.
Communicate *

- mqttclient: Connect to MQTT broke
- mqttpublish: Publish a topic message to the MQTT broker
- mqttsubscribe: Subscribe to a topic and receive message from MQTT broker
- mqttunsubscribe: Unsubscribe from a topic that is already subscribed from MQTT broker
- Utility functions: mqttclientinfo, mqttdestroy, mqttreconnect, mqttdisconnect
