ThunderBayes.jl

News

  • Under development & test. Pleae wait the first alpha release.

Installation

ThunderBayes.jl is available through GitHub (https://github.com/jirotubuyaki/ThunderBayes.jl/). If download from GitHub, you can use devtools by the commands:

Pkg.add(url = "https://github.com/jirotubuyaki/ThunderBayes.jl/")

Once the packages are installed, it needs to be made accessible to the current Julia session by the commands:

> using ThunderBayes

Functions

Plan

We aim to develop bayesian nonparametric package by Julia. Lots of relate scientific papers are pubilshed. We organize the papers and develop useful library. Firstly We will implement clustering methods and aim to release the first alpha version.

The academic papers for this project are below:
