eXtreme Gradient Boosting in Haskell

Build Status Gitter chat for developers at https://gitter.im/dmlc/xgboost

A Haskell wrapper for DMLC's xgboost machine learning library.

Xgboost is an optimized general purpose gradient boosting library. The library is parallelized, and also provides an optimized distributed version.

It implements machine learning algorithms under the Gradient Boosting framework, including Generalized Linear Model (GLM) and Gradient Boosted Decision Trees (GBDT). XGBoost can also be distributed and scale to Terascale data.

Development

To get started, run the standard:

cabal sandbox init
cabal configure
cabal build
cabal install

You can then enter GHCI with the sandboxed packages using

# Assuming GHC >= 7.6
# Note we have to link the dynamic xgboostwrapper library manually when using ghci: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/6323755/osx-ghci-dylib-what-is-the-correct-way
ghci -no-user-package-db -package-db .cabal-sandbox/*.conf.d xgboost/wrapper/libxgboost.so
