Strategery ↑

git clone git://github.com/urug/strategery.git

DESCRIPTION: ↑

This is the project that the Utah Ruby Users Group has been working on with our hack nights. The plan has changed a bit, and unfortunately the code looks like a sausage recipe with footnotes. But it’s coming along. I’ve written a newbie-introduction to SVM that I think covers the salient facts without getting too bogged down into the details. You can find it at blog.teguhub.com. As for now, the goal of this project is to build a useful interface for Ruby SVM that will get all of the value that is exposed to us from libsvm. Then, if there’s interest, we can go further. So, we are:

  • Building a series of transformers to get data loaded into an SVM model from various stores (CSV, ActiveRecord, DataMapper, and CouchDB for now)

  • Implementing some scaling code to scale the data

  • Integrating various repositories, for discovering good practices at least. On the table: Arrays, RBTrees, Amalgalites, RNum Vectors

  • Writing a process manager to handle some of the pre-processing (scaling, cross-validating, and transforming)

These problems are semi-general to data analysis and will likely be useful for similar projects. Certainly there is a lot of cross-pollination between this project and Agency.

The name strategery is a Bush-ism, an effort to create meaning where maybe none existed. We hope that your classifications actually make sense.

FEATURES/PROBLEMS: ↑

  • An interface for training, scaling, cross-validating, and testing an SVM.

  • A transform interface for creating SVM-ready data.

  • A workflow tool for automatically classifying typical data sets.

SYNOPSIS: ↑

require 'strategery'
include SVM

data = Transformer::CSV.load('traning_example.csv')
model = Workflow.process(data)

Transformer::CSV.load('testing_example.csv').each_line do |line|
  puts model.predict_probability(line)
end

There are more examples in the examples directory.

REQUIREMENTS: ↑

  • libsvm

  • Ruby SVM
