Hello, I was trying to save a decision forest to a file but then I cannot load it.
I am using C# on a Win7 64bits PC.

An exception is thrown in alglib.dfunserialize(str, out df);

Code:
System.IndexOutOfRangeException was caught
  Message=Index was outside the bounds of the array.
  Source=alglibnet2
  StackTrace:
       at alglib.serializer.str2int(Char[] buf, Int32& offs)
       at alglib.serializer.unserialize_int()
       at alglib.dforest.dfunserialize(serializer s, decisionforest forest)
       at alglib.dfunserialize(String s_in, decisionforest& obj)
       at gesturePresenter.RDFClassifier.load(String filename) in C:\gestures3d\SVN\code\gesturePresenter\gesturePresenter\RDFClassifier.cs:line 127
  InnerException:


Here is a summary of my code, maybe I did something wrong ? (the classification works well)

Code:

class RDFClassifier
    {
        private alglib.decisionforest df;
        private alglib.dfreport dfreport;

        private int nbSamples;
        private int nbFeatures;
        private int nbClasses;

        public void testCaseXOR()
        {
           
            FeatureVectors samples = new FeatureVectors();
            FeatureVector fv1 = new FeatureVector(new double[] { 0, 0, 0 }, 1); // {X1, X2, Y}
            FeatureVector fv2 = new FeatureVector(new double[] { 0, 1, 1 }, 1);
            FeatureVector fv3 = new FeatureVector(new double[] { 1, 0, 1 }, 1);
            FeatureVector fv4 = new FeatureVector(new double[] { 1, 1, 0 }, 1);
            samples.Add(fv1);
            samples.Add(fv2);
            samples.Add(fv3);
            samples.Add(fv4);

            createForest(samples, 16, 0.95);

            classify(new double[] { 0.2, 1.3 });

            save("test.rdf");
            load("test.rdf");

            classify(new double[] { 0.2, 1.3 });
        }
      
        public void createForest(FeatureVectors learningSamples, int nTrees, double ratio)
        {
            int info = 0;
            df = new alglib.decisionforest();
            dfreport = new alglib.dfreport();
            nbSamples = learningSamples.SamplesCount;
            nbFeatures = learningSamples.FeaturesDimension;
            nbClasses = learningSamples.ClassesDimension;
            alglib.dfbuildrandomdecisionforest(
                learningSamples.Vectors,
                nbSamples,
                nbFeatures,
                nbClasses,
                nTrees,
                ratio,
                out info,
                out df,
                out dfreport);
            if (info != 1) { throw new Exception("Random Forest Creation not solved"); }
        }

        public double[] classify(double[] data)
        {
            if (df == null) { throw new InvalidOperationException("Random Decision Forest not initialized"); }

            double[] result = new double[nbClasses];
            alglib.dfprocess(df, data, ref result);
            return result;
        }

        public void save(string fileName)
        {
            if (df == null) { return; }
            string str = "";
            alglib.dfserialize(df, out str);
            using (TextWriter tw = new StreamWriter(fileName, false))
            {
                tw.WriteLine(str);
                tw.Close();
            }         
        }

        public void load(string filename)
        {
            try
            {
                using (StreamReader sr = new StreamReader(filename))
                {
                    string str = sr.ReadLine();
                    alglib.dfunserialize(str, out df);                   
                    sr.Close();
                }
            }
            catch (Exception e)
            {
                // ends up here :-(
            }
        }
}


I hope you'll find the problem and be able to correct it if it is a bug.
Thanks for your good work !

Hello!

I think, the problem is that you read string from file with sr.ReadLine() - it reads only one line (until the EOL), and serialized structure contains many "lines" of data, i.e. many sequences of EOL-separated strings. ALGLIB inserts linebreaks into stream in order to make debugging a bit easier.

I think that you should use either ReadToEnd() or Read() with specific number of characters to read.

Oh ok, I thought it was serialized in one line.
Thank you a lot !
