Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist Owner: Joost van Baal <joostvb-debian-bugs-20101224-3@mdcc.cx> * Package name : dimbl Version : 0.7 Upstream Author : ILK Research Group, Tilburg University, http://ilk.uvt.nl * URL : http://ilk.uvt.nl/dimbl/ * License : GPL-3 Programming Lang: C++ Description : Distributed Memory Based Learner Dimbl is a wrapper around the k-nearest neighbor classifier in TiMBL, offering parallel classification on multi-CPU machines. Dimbl splits the original training set, builds separate TiMBL classifiers per training subset, and merges their nearest-neighbor sets per classified instance . Dimbl's features are: * Wraps neatly around TiMBL, retaining all command line options; * Knows what to do with your multiple, duo, or quad cores; * Makes use of the OpenMP specification for parallel programming; * Can attain superlinear speed gains compared to standard TiMBL. . Dimbl is a product of the ILK (Induction of Linguistic Knowledge) research group of the Tilburg University and the CNTS research group of the University of Antwerp. . If you do scientific research in Natural Language Processing using the Memory-Based Learning technique, Dimbl will likely be of use to you. ---- Dimbl depends upon TiMBL, which is now in http://ftp-master.debian.org/new.html .
