Open Source Julia Algorithms

Beyond its much publicized success in attaining superhuman level at games such as Chess and Go, DeepMind's AlphaZero algorithm illustrates a more general methodology of combining learning and search to explore large combinatorial spaces effectively. We believe that this methodology can have exciting applications in many different research areas. Because AlphaZero is resource-hungry, successful open-source implementations (such as Leela Zero) are written in low-level languages (such as C++) and optimized for highly distributed computing environments. This makes them hardly accessible for students, researchers and hackers. Many simple Python implementations can be found on Github, but none of them is able to beat a reasonable baseline on games such as Othello or Connect Four. As an illustration, the benchmark in the README of the most popular of them only features a random baseline, along with a greedy baseline that does not appear to be significantly stronger.

Julia implementation of Decision Tree (CART) and Random Forest algorithms.

A Julia package for evolutionary & genetic algorithms. The package can be installed with the Julia package manager.

This package implements a variety of interpolation schemes for the Julia language. It has the goals of ease of use, broad algorithmic support, and exceptional performance. Currently, this package supports B-splines and irregular grids. The API has been designed with the intent to support more options. Initial support for Lanczos interpolation was recently added. Pull requests are more than welcome! It should be noted that the API may continue to evolve over time.

MLPACK is a C++ machine learning library with emphasis on scalability, speed, and ease-of-use. Its aim is to make machine learning possible for novice users by means of a simple, consistent API, while simultaneously exploiting C++ language features to provide maximum performance and flexibility for expert users. * More info + downloads: https://mlpack.org * Git repo: https://github.com/mlpack/mlpack
