Can't find any code for intermediate layer feature learning

Does the published code not include the implementation of dictionary learning necessary for learning intermediate features? Why is the published code very limited and doesn't include everything in the paper?

If I recall correctly, intermediate feature learning does not exist on the two layer model. Correct me if I am wrong.

Yes, the channels, in this case, are known beforehand (the classes of the training set), but I expected that they would publish complete code except for the CAPTCHA part. Without intermediate feature learning, I can't try experiments on other more challenging dataset that require increasing the number of layers.

I am currently fixing up the code to run on Omniglot (I have cleaned it enough so that it works on Py3 without C++). I may try to get the intermediate feature learning to work (judging by the algorithm, it should not be that hard).

EDIT: On second thought, creating hierarchies beyond 2 layers is out of my scope.
