3.8.15 - Beta Release (September 2015)

This release includes performance enhancements and a key feature for IQQM to Source conversion:

• Nodes can be deactivated for scenario modelling: This is the last major component required to allow IQQM users to convert their models to Source and maintain previous functionality. Deactivating individual nodes will allow a single scenario to represent progressive stages of development – reducing model maintenance, file size, and run times when working on a subset of the model for the purposes of calibration and troubleshooting. Activating and deactivating nodes can be managed with Input Sets.
  
  
• Calibration Wizard improvements (these will change results of calibration runs):
  • When using Shuffled Complex Evolution (SCE), the default parameters are now calculated based on the number of meta parameters used. This removes the need to adjust parameters manually to reflect the recommended settings for SCE.
  • There is now the option to choose the random seed used to generate the starting points for optimisation algorithms in the Calibration Wizard, allowing for repeatable calibration results.
    
    

• Bivariate Statistics now include objective functions from the Calibration Wizard: This enables the performance of a model to be easily evaluated without having to run the Calibration Wizard. Previously, the performance statistics available in the Bivariate Statistics tab were limited to the Nash-Sutcliffe Efficiency (Daily) and bias.

Insight

To run Insight you also need to install the 32bit version of Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable Package.
This is for both 32bit machines and 64bit machines since the library we use is 32bit: Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable Package (x86).
