This package provides a Julia language wrapper for libclang: the stable, C-exported interface to the LLVM Clang compiler. The libclang API documentation provides background on the functionality available through libclang, and thus through the Julia wrapper. The repository also hosts related tools built on top of libclang functionality.

...It can be used for data visualization and plotting, deep learning, machine learning, scientific computing, parallel computing and so much more. Having a high level syntax, Julia is easy to use for programmers of every level and background. Julia has more than 2,800 community-registered packages including various mathematical libraries, data manipulation tools, and packages for general purpose computing. Libraries from Python, R, C/Fortran, C++, and Java can also be used.

...The package is already very fast for the majority of common operations, but there are still many low-hanging fruits performance-wise. See the detailed suggested readings & references page for background on the various algorithms.

...The difference to Union-types is that types can be added to a trait after the creation of the trait, whereas Union types are fixed after creation. The cool thing about Tim's trick is that there is no performance impact compared to using ordinary dispatch. For a bit of background and a quick introduction to traits watch my 10min JuliaCon 2015 talk.

Finch is a cutting-edge Julia-to-Julia compiler specially designed for optimizing loop nests over sparse or structured multidimensional arrays. Finch empowers users to write conventional for loops which are transformed behind-the-scenes into fast sparse code.

...Bayesian statistics is an approach to inferential statistics based on Bayes' theorem, where available knowledge about parameters in a statistical model is updated with the information in observed data. The background knowledge is expressed as a prior distribution and combined with observational data in the form of a likelihood function to determine the posterior distribution. The posterior can also be used for making predictions about future events. Bayesian statistics is a departure from classical inferential statistics that prohibits probability statements about parameters and is based on asymptotically sampling infinite samples from a theoretical population and finding parameter values that maximize the likelihood function. ...
