I'm trying to work a collegues code from a previous MLab version. Since I'm using R2019a, is there an issue with the DAGNetwork because it's crashing at "iThrowCNNException( e );

From the error you received, I can see that your input data is of size 5353.

But, from line 3 of your code, you are defining the input size (numFeatures) of your sequenceInputLayer as 1, whereas it should be defined as 5353.

Thank you, Divya.

What I ended up doing, and it may not be the best coding practice, was to execute a rot90(data) earlier up in the code after the data ingest. This did the trick. It comes in at 5335x1 and the training structure was appearently looking for 1x5335.

Still not sure how this fully operates yet. Still some learning to do. Thx again for you time.
