A package with several types of Perceptron classifiers. Perceptrons are fast classifiers and can be used even for big data. Up to now, this package contains a linear perceptron, voted perceptron and a Kernel perceptron for binary classification problems. This project will have the following perceptron classifiers: Multiclass, Kernel, Structured, Voted, Average and Sparse. Some state-of-the-art must be included after these.

• Voted Perceptron
• Averaged Perceptron
• Kernel Perceptron
• Linear Perceptron

• Multiclass Perceptron
• Structured Perceptron
• Sparse Perceptron

• Perceptrons.fit - learns from input data and its related single target

  • X::Matrix{:<AbstractFloat} - A matrix that columns are the features and rows are the samples
  • Y::Vector{:<AbstractFloat} - A vector with float values.
  • copydata::Bool = true: If you want to use the same input matrix or a copy.
  • centralize::Bool = true: If you want to z-score columns. Recommended if not z-scored yet.
  • mode::AbstractString = "linear": modes are "linear", "kernel", "voted" and "averaged" perceptron.
  • kernel::AbstractString = "rbf": If you want to apply a nonlinear Perceptron with gaussian Kernel.
  • width::AbstractFloat = 1.0: Rbf Kernel width (Only if kernel="rbf").
  • alpha::Real = 1.0e-2: learning rate.
  • shuffle_epoch::Bool = true: Shuffle dataset for each epoch. Improves convergency.
  • random_state::Int = 42: Use a seed to force same results trhough the same dataset.
  • max_epochs::Int = 5: Maximum epochs.

• Perceptrons.predict - predicts using the learnt model extracted from fit.

  • model::Perceptrons.Model - A Perceptron model learnt from fit.
  • X::Matrix{:<AbstractFloat} - A matrix that columns are the features and rows are the samples.
  • copydata::Bool = true - If you want to use the same input matrix or a copy.
