Analyzing Word Frequencies with Clojure, Enlive and Incanter
I’ve long been interested in getting a better feel for Incanter, a statistical computing and graphical environment for Clojure. So gifted with the fleeting favors of my muse (otherwise known as free time), I thought I’d put together a small library — although it’s not quite a library, yet — for analyzing word-use patterns on blogs and webpages.
To do [...]
Gajure Now on Clojars
Gajure, my small genetic algorithm framework, is now up on Clojars. Hopefully, this should make it much more convenient to use in a real project. I also added Leiningen support, and if you use Clojure with any frequency, I’d recommend checking that out.
Clojure :pre and :post
Courtesy of Hacker News, this morning I stumbled upon a blog post mentioning :pre and :post assertions, a new feature in version 1.1 of Clojure. Given the rather messy nature of several functions in Gajure (my toy genetic algorithm framework), it seemed to me that I had an ideal opportunity to make use of this [...]
On Parallelism
Recently, I read an article describing someone’s experiments in parallel genetic programming, and so I decided to run my own. As has been mentioned, I am quite fond of functional languages; for me, easy parallelism is simply a pleasant bonus. I do think its worth noting, however, that while functional programming may be generally awesome, throwing [...]
A Genetic Algorithm Framework in Clojure
functional languages. They are wonderfully powerful, and can easily abstract away a basic algorithm that one might apply to many kinds of problems. With this in mind, I decided to build a framework for constructing genetic algorithms in Clojure.
