Title: newLISP Development release 10.5.2
Post by: Lutz on June 25, 2013, 02:31:14 PM
This development release fixes bugs and introduces functions for Kmeans cluster analysis.



With the already existing bayes-train, bayes-query and the new kmeans-train and kmeans-query functions, newLISP now implements 2 of the most - or even the 2 most - used machine-learning algorithms as fast native functions.



Changes notes and files: http://www.newlisp.org/downloads/development/



Ps: Users of 10.5.0 who use the bigint functions system should also switch to v.10.5.2 (the fixes where already in v.10.5.1)

Thanks HPW, I wonder if anybody is planning to use the new kmeans-train and kmeans-query functions?

Hello, Lutz.



For the manual of Maintenance Release.

I think that "Eucledian distance" equals "Euclidean distance".

Both seem to be used in the web, and in Wikipadia

I don't know which common.
