LightML.jl

About

LightML.jl is a collection of reimplementation of general machine learning algorithm in Julia.

The purpose of this project is purely self-educational.

Why?

This project is targeting people who want to learn internals of ml algorithms or implement them from scratch.

The code is much easier to follow than the optimized libraries and easier to play with.

All algorithms are implemented in Julia.

You should access test function of every implementation for its usage in detail. Every model is actually constructed in a similar manner.

Installation

First make sure you have correct python dependency. You can use the Conda Julia package to install more Python packages, and import Conda to print the Conda.PYTHONDIR directory where python was installed. On GNU/Linux systems, PyCall will default to using the python program (if any) in your PATH.

The advantage of a Conda-based configuration is particularly compelling if you are installing PyCall in order to use packages like PyPlot.jl or SymPy.jl, as these can then automatically install their Python dependencies.

ENV["PYTHON"]=""
Pkg.add("Conda")
using Conda
Conda.add("python==2.7.13")
Conda.add("matplotlib")
Conda.add("scikit-learn")
Pkg.add("PyCall")
Pkg.build("PyCall")

or you can simply

Pkg.build("LightML")

It's actually same with the procedure above.

Then every dependency should be configured, you can simply run command below to install the package.

Pkg.clone("https://github.com/memoiry/LightML.jl")
