Notekeeper: Heiko

  • Log-determinant notebook: Needs to be fixed regarding the computation engine refactoring (Heiko will do), before we try to get rid of RealFeatures (wuwei will do).

  • Stan integrated into Shogun. Could we use Stan somewhere in the Shogun code. Would be cool to do an analysis in terms of (reduction of redundant code, performance).

  • CARTree is slow. Viktor profiled. Generally would be cool to profile Shogun algorithms. Maybe we can do that whenever we touch algorithms. Heiko will make a wiki page for people to post results

  • Google micro benchmark framework. Would be nice to use this. What for? Not so much algorithms (use mlpack instead), but rather for internal purposes.

  • Release 7.0. We are late. Lots of blockers (latest Ubuntu LTS is failing atm). Agreed to postpone 7.0 due to too many blockers and to do another 6.X release, with the biggest new feature being the license change. All GSoC students should update the NEWS with their contributions. Viktor will make a github project to collect issues for that release.

  • Discussed a bit the refactoring of TreeMachine as they use template parameters that are not basic, and as such the parameter framework doesnt cover them (no serialization, no equals, no clone, no x-validation). Simple fix would be to refactor, but more sophisticated approached that allow non-simple template parameters might be useful as well.
