[Classifier4j-devel] First look at classifier4j...

[Peter L. <pe...@le...>]

Heya,

            I need a Bayesian classifier for a pet project that I'm =
going to be working on. Instead of reinventing the wheel, I thought I'd =
check out what was available....

I'd like to help out with this project (If you're interested that =
is!)...

I understand that 0.2 was an initial release, so I'm probably stating =
the obvious here, anyhow, here are a couple of suggestions:

- Deployment
    - The zip file has CVS entries in it. From memory, performing a zip =
from ant doesn't include the CVS entries by default.
    - Also would be nice if all the files where under "Classifier4J-0.2" =
instead of "."....

- Database
    - I would recommend using hibernate (http://hibernate.bluemars.net) =
instead of directly using JDBC. I've used this product with other =
projects and I wholeheartedly recommend it. This would allow =
classifier4j get cached query results etc for free... Also keeps the =
code cleaner...

- Currently the model only supports one classifier in the database, I =
would require a number of separate classifiers to be stored in the =
database.
