v1.2.0

This release includes the following changes:

New Features

Includes a new command line option --forceDuplicates that forces Pythia to predict the difficulty for an MSA that contains duplicate sequences (default behavior still is to fail).

Updates

We retrained Pythia and optimized the params using Optuna. This slightly increases the performance to a MAE of 0.06 (previously 0.07) and a MAPE of 1.6% (previously 1.7%) 🥳
The new predictor is available as predictor_lgb_v1.2.0.pckl and latest.pckl.

Bug Fixes

Fixes a bug that caused the --shap option to fail due to an update in the shap package API (fixes #15), thanks @computations for the fix!
