YALE short from Yet Another Learning Environment is a flexible open-source tool for knowledge discovery, machine learning experiments, and data mining applications.
Experiments can be made up of a large number of arbitrarily nestable operators and their setup is described by XML files which can easily be created with a graphical user interface. Applications of YALE cover both research and real-world data mining tasks.
YALE is an environment for rapid prototyping of data mining applications. A modular operator concept allows the design of complex nested operator chains for a huge number of learning problems.
The data handling is transparent to the operators. They do not have to cope with the actual data format or different data views - the YALE core takes care of the necessary transformations. YALE is widely used by researchers and in industry.
Requirements:
· Java 1.5
