MI tests failing

[dayanne-castro]

Mutual information tests all failing for me... how is it looking for you guys? Anything I should be aware of that is changing?

[NicoDeVeaux]

@dayanne-castro The master branch code hasn't changed since April. I'm not seeing failures. What branch are you on?

[dayanne-castro]

Nick, it is in the MTL branch actually -- I didn't change anything with mi though..

[NicoDeVeaux]

Locally, the tests pass for me on branch master. However, if I run the tests on branch MTL in a different directory (/Users/ndeveaux/Dropbox (Simons Foundation)/inferelator_refactor), then all the mi tests fail. The reason they fail, however, has nothing to do with mi code correctness: it's because the test infrastructure can't handle running R code from a directory with a space in it, i.e. "Dropbox (Simons Foundation)"
I moved the code to a ~/Desktop/tmp folder, and the MI tests passed. However, I still got one test failure: ====================================================================== ERROR: test_ebic_RSSzero (inferelator_ng.tests.test_sparse_blocksparse.Test_AuxiliaryFunctions) ----------------------------------------------------------------------

Got it!

About the error -- still working on it, and I haven't even committed how did you get it?
