APRIL-ANN toolkit (A Pattern Recognizer In Lua with ANNs). This toolkit incorporates ANN algorithms (as dropout, stacked denoising auto-encoders, convolutional NNs), with other pattern recognition methods as HMMs among others. Additionally, in experimental stage, it is possible to perform automatic differentiation, for advanced ML research.

Addition of hmm_trainer #21

Closed pakozm closed 11 years ago

HMM trainer introduces Hidden Markov Models training in April-ANN :-)

Baha commented 11 years ago

If we are going to add other Machine Learning models to April, I suggest that we change the name to "april" instead of "april-ann". Are you going to implement HMMs from scratch or you already had that in the old April?

pakozm commented 11 years ago

We had discussed the name, and we agreed about it. April-ANN is April, paying more attention to the ANNs part ;-) We have HMMs implemented at original April toolkit, so I'm going to migrate the code from there.

Baha commented 11 years ago

I said that because I use the URL's project in my presentations (for advertising :P) and it's better to change that as soon as possible if it's going to change anyways.

pakozm commented 11 years ago

No problem, the name is not gonna change :-) If you search at google, "april-ann" is more suitable to be indexed at pattern recognition, neural networks, etc, than only "april". If you search "april toolkit", the first result is:

and if you search "april-ann toolkit", the first is:

It is ready! :-)
