Encog Java and DotNet Neural Network Framework
From the website:
Encog is an advanced neural network and machine learning framework. Encog contains classes to create a wide variety of networks, as well as support classes to normalize and process data for these neural networks. Encog trains using multithreaded resilient propagation. Encog can also make use of a GPU to further speed processing time. A GUI based workbench is also provided to help model and train neural networks. Encog has been in active development since 2008.
Encog is available for Java, .Net and Silverlight.
An important project for at least two reasons.
First, the obvious applicability to the creation of topic maps using machine learning techniques.
Second, it demonstrates that supporting Java, .Net and Silverlight, isn’t, you know, all that weird.
The world is changing and becoming, somewhat more interoperable.
Topic maps has a role to play in that process, both in terms of semantic interoperability of the infrastructure as well as the data it contains.
