Runtime Instructions

Run Main.java to run the simulated annealing algorithm on the Carnivora dataset. For other dataset and hyperparameter combinations, change the corresponding variables in Main.java.

TODO

The following updates to the repository are forthcoming:

• Friendly command line interface for dataset and hyperparameter input
• More thorough documentation of installation and runtime instructions
