Weka

Machine Learning & Data Mining with JRuby based on the
Weka Java library.

Installation

Add this line to your application’s Gemfile:

gem 'weka'

And then execute:

$ bundle install

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install weka

Usage

Use Weka’s Machine Learning and Data Mining algorithms by requiring the gem:

require 'weka'

The weka gem tries to carry over the namespaces defined in Weka and enhances
some interfaces in order to allow a more Ruby-ish programming style when using
the Weka library.

The idea behind keeping the namespaces is, that you can also use the
Weka documentation for looking up
functionality and classes.

Please refer to the gem’s Wiki
for detailed information about how to use weka with JRuby and some examplary
code snippets.

Development

1. Check out the repo with git clone [email protected]:paulgoetze/weka-jruby.git.
2. Set a local environment variable export JARS_VENDOR=false. This will
   prevent compiling the jars into your repo’s /lib directory and will load them
   from your local maven repository instead. See the
   jar-dependencies README
   for more information.
3. Run bin/setup or bundle install to install the dependencies.

Then, run rake spec to run the tests. You can also run bin/console or
rake irb for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.

Contributing

Bug reports and pull requests are welcome on GitHub at
https://github.com/paulgoetze/weka-jruby. This project is intended to be a safe,
welcoming space for collaboration, and contributors are expected to adhere to
the
Contributor Covenant Code of Conduct.

For development we use the
git branching model
described by nvie.

Here’s how to contribute:

1. Fork it (https://github.com/paulgoetze/weka-jruby/fork)
2. Create your feature branch (git checkout -b feature/my-new-feature develop)
3. Commit your changes (git commit -am 'Add some feature')
4. Push to the branch (git push origin feature/my-new-feature)
5. Create a new Pull Request

Please try to add RSpec tests along with your new feature. This will ensure that
your code does not break existing functionality and that your feature is working
as expected.

We use Rubocop for code style
recommendations. Please make sure your contributions comply with the project’s
Rubocop config.
