Infer: Inference and Machine Learning in Clojure
- stompchicken 16y agoIt's probably worth pointing out that this project has no relation to Infer.NET (I don't think so, anyway), another machine learning library from Microsoft Research and written in F#.
- dwine 16y agoAnd why is this even called Infer? It's not doing inference... BTW, Infer.NET is written in C#, but there is an F# wrapper.
- stompchicken 16y agoCheers, my bad.
- dododo 16y agoi used Infer.NET: buggy as anything, horrible syntax. it's for doing inference in graphical models using EP; these are the same techniques as those MS use for trueskill. this (Infer) looks like it's for a different kind of inference: classification (essentially linear, but with a few bells and whistles). (not graphical models right now; probabilities.clj is very much lacking.)
- mark_l_watson 16y agoIt looks interesting - I browsed a few of the tests. That said, unless a project has at least several pages of how to get started docs with a few real examples, I usually pass on it.
