+ * @brief Run repeats of the GenTask structs in GenQueue to find the best

+ *
+ * @details
+ * The best performing tasks in the supplied GenQueue are found by taking those
+ * GenTask structs that have a performance greater or equal to the 95% percentile
+ * of the performance of all tasks. These tasks are then gathered in a new
+ * GenQueue. For each of the tasks in this new GenQueue the cross validation run is
+ * repeated a number of times.
+ *
+ * For each of the GenTask configurations that are repeated the mean performance,
+ * standard deviation of the performance and the mean computation time are
+ * reported.
+ *
+ * Finally, the overall best tasks are written to the specified output. These
+ * tasks are selected to have both the highest mean performance, as well as the
+ * smallest standard deviation in their performance. This is done as follows.
+ * First the 99th percentile of task performance and the 1st percentile of
+ * standard deviation is calculated. If a task exists for which the mean
+ * performance of the repeats and the standard deviation equals these values
+ * respectively, this task is found to be the best and is written to the
+ * output. If no such task exists, the 98th percentile of performance and the
+ * 2nd percentile of standard deviation is considered. This is repeated until
+ * an interval is found which contains tasks. If one or more tasks are found,
+ * this loop stops.

- * @brief Run repeats of the GenTask structs in GenQueue to find the best

- *
- * @details
- * The best performing tasks in the supplied GenQueue are found by taking those
- * GenTask structs that have a performance greater or equal to the 95% percentile
- * of the performance of all tasks. These tasks are then gathered in a new
- * GenQueue. For each of the tasks in this new GenQueue the cross validation run is
- * repeated a number of times.
- *
- * For each of the GenTask configurations that are repeated the mean performance,
- * standard deviation of the performance and the mean computation time are
- * reported.
- *
- * Finally, the overall best tasks are written to the specified output. These
- * tasks are selected to have both the highest mean performance, as well as the
- * smallest standard deviation in their performance. This is done as follows.
- * First the 99th percentile of task performance and the 1st percentile of
- * standard deviation is calculated. If a task exists for which the mean
- * performance of the repeats and the standard deviation equals these values
- * respectively, this task is found to be the best and is written to the
- * output. If no such task exists, the 98th percentile of performance and the
- * 2nd percentile of standard deviation is considered. This is repeated until
- * an interval is found which contains tasks. If one or more tasks are found,
- * this loop stops.
- *
- * @param[in] 	q 		GenQueue of GenTask structs which have already been
- * 				run and have a GenTask::performance value
