A Python wrapper for the Weka data mining library.
Project description
Weka - Python wrapper for Weka classifiers
Overview
Provides a convenient wrapper for calling Weka classifiers from Python.
Installation
First install the Weka and LibSVM Java libraries. On Debian/Ubuntu this is simply:
sudo apt-get install weka libsvm-java
Then install the Python package with pip:
sudo pip install pywekaclassifiers
Usage
Train and test a Weka classifier by instantiating the Classifier class, passing in the name of the classifier you want to use:
from pywekaclassifiers.classifiers import Classifier
c = Classifier(name='weka.classifiers.lazy.IBk', ckargs={'-K':1})
c.train('training.arff')
predictions = c.predict('query.arff')
Alternatively, you can instantiate the classifier by calling its name directly:
from pywekaclassifiers.classifiers import IBk
c = IBk(K=1)
c.train('training.arff')
predictions = c.predict('query.arff')
The instance contains Weka's serialized model, so the classifier can be easily pickled and unpickled like any normal Python instance:
c.save('myclassifier.pkl')
c = Classifier.load('myclassifier.pkl')
predictions = c.predict('query.arff')
Development
Tests require the Python development headers to be installed, which you can install on Ubuntu with:
sudo apt-get install python-dev python3-dev python3.4-dev
To run unittests across multiple Python versions, install:
sudo apt-get install python3.4-minimal python3.4-dev python3.5-minimal python3.5-dev
To run all tests:
export TESTNAME=; tox
To run tests for a specific environment (e.g. Python 2.7):
export TESTNAME=; tox -e py27
To run a specific test:
export TESTNAME=.test_IBk; tox -e py27
