memory exhausted error.

[GARY FORBIS]

I've just started using Octave and am having trouble running MNIST from

http://www.cs.toronto.edu/~hinton/MatlabForSciencePaper.html

Aside from the save and load syntax differences I'm getting

 

 error: memory exhausted or requested size too large for range of
 Octave's index type -- execution of mnistdeepauto.m failed

while executing this:

 

load digit9; digitdata = [digitdata; D]; targets = [targets; repmat([0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1], size(D,1), 1)];

I've been told there are some register settings I could change to fix this.

 

I'm using GNU Octave, version 3.0.0

 

Any help?

 

Thanks.
