How to compile, build and start ANNdotNET Tool

In order to compile and build ANNdotNET solution, the following actions must be performed:

• Clone solution by typing: git clone https://github.com/bhrnjica/anndotnet in console,
• Run Visual Studio 2017 and open anndotnet.gui.net.sln solution file,
• Set anndotnet.tool.net – as startup project,
• Change system architecture of the solution from Any CPU to x64.

• Once the previous actions are performed the Solution window looks like:

• From the Program.cs file select one of several implemented solutions un-comment the code and run the solution. For example un-comment Iris sample which is presented in the following code snippet:

//Iris flower recognition
//Famous multi class classification datset: https://archive.ics.uci.edu/ml/datasets/iris
var mlConfigFile2 = "./model_mlconfigs/iris.mlconfig";
Console.WriteLine(Environment.NewLine);
Console.WriteLine($"****Iris flower recognition****");
Console.WriteLine(Environment.NewLine);
var token2 = new CancellationToken();
var result = MachineLearning.Run(mlConfigFile2, DeviceDescriptor.UseDefaultDevice(), token2, trainingProgress, null);
//evaluate model and export the result of testing
MachineLearning.EvaluateModel(mlConfigFile2, result.BestModelFile, DeviceDescriptor.UseDefaultDevice());

• Once the project is executed the following output is present:
