dump state during runtime #36

Open xh3b4sd opened 8 years ago

xh3b4sd commented 8 years ago

For debugging and analysis it might be necessary to backup state during runtime. Question is if this should overwrite the default state file.

Another aspect of this feature would be to dump a specific part of the state. For instance to debug strategies and be able to comprehend how a certain problem was solved, we could lookup the way information flew through networks and neurons. So you may would like to only dump the state of a given network or context.

There is no state model as described anymore. Anyway this feature is still interesting. E.g dumping an impulse and other network information would be really cool.

Also interesting is to dump state of the tracer as requested here: https://github.com/xh3b4sd/anna/issues/24.
