scikit-multimodallearn 0.1.0

A scikit-learn compatible package for multimodal Classifiers

scikit-multimodallearn

scikit-multimodallearn is a Python package implementing algorithms multimodal data.

It is compatible with scikit-learn, a popular package for machine learning in Python.

Documentation

The documentation including installation instructions, API documentation and examples is available online.

Installation

Dependencies

scikit-multimodallearn works with Python 3.5 or later.

scikit-multimodallearn depends on scikit-learn (version 1.2.1).

Optionally, matplotlib is required to run the examples.

Installation using pip

scikit-multimodallearn is available on PyPI and can be installed using pip:

pip install scikit-multimodallearn

Development

The development of this package follows the guidelines provided by the scikit-learn community.

Refer to the Developer’s Guide of the scikit-learn project for more details.

Source code

You can get the source code from the Git repository of the project:

git clone [e-mail]:dev/scikit-multimodallearn.git

or:

git clone [e-mail]:multi-learn/scikit-multimodallearn.git

Testing

pytest and pytest-cov are required to run the test suite with:

cd multimodal
pytest

A code coverage report is displayed in the terminal when running the tests. An HTML version of the report is also stored in the directory htmlcov.

Generating the documentation

The generation of the documentation requires sphinx, sphinx-gallery, numpydoc and matplotlib and can be run with:

python setup.py build_sphinx

The resulting files are stored in the directory build/sphinx/html.

Credits

scikit-multimodallearn is developped by the development team of the LIS.
