Legalities
The
packages contain binary versions of a number of opensource
libraries. I am including them here with the knowledge that this
might not be entirely compatible with the distribution policies
of each respective library. I will try to contact and get the
necessary permissions, to the extent to which this is possible,
from the related parties. In the meantime, I distribute this
software in good faith, my goal is for people to be able to
study and work with the different methods implemented here. See
the acknowledgements section below for a list of the people who
contributed.

Then again, this page will always link to the latest version of the software so you may be better off taking the version here anyway.

Requirements
The code requires Qt (5.10) and (in part) OpenCV
(3.1) and Boost (1.47). Previous versions of these libraries might
work as well but you might as well use the newer version. Be sure
to adjust your include and lib paths to point them to the correct
directories.
The software was compiled and tested on Mac OSX
High Sierra, Windows 10, Gentoo, Ubuntu and Kubuntu 10.04,
using QtCreator 2.1 and 2.6.
- Windows
In order to compile MLDemos in windows, you will need MinGW (commonly installed with the QtSDK for MinGW
- Debian
Prof. Barak A. Pearlmutter has created a debian package, which will be available soon. In the meantime you can build it following the instruction below:
git clone git://github.com/barak/mldemos.git
cd mldemos
git checkout debian
dpkg-checkbuilddeps
fakeroot debian/rules binary
sudo dpkg --install ../mldemos_*.deb
Note: OpenCV 2.4 is not available directly (only 2.1 is), which will require you to build OpenCV2.4. This is only necessary to use MLP and Boosting. These are two important algorithms, so you might as well make the effort:
git clone git://github.com/barak/opencv.git
cd opencv
git checkout master
dpkg-checkbuilddeps
fakeroot debian/rules binary
sudo dpkg --install ../*opencv*.deb
Again, a huge thanks to Barak!
Known Bugs
- WINDOWS: Clearing the canvas while in the 3D display leaves part of the memory occupied, which can accumulate when this is done several times (part of a memory bug on Windows only)
- LINUX (CDE package) loading and saving of external files does not work
- Approximate KNN classification creates weird blank spaces on some machines and with some metrics.
- Saving does not work on the linux CDE package
- Resizing the canvas when a reward map has been drawn does not update the underlying data (avoid doing it).
- In Boosting, changing the data does not recompute the learners, which can lead to bad results if the data has changed boundaries significantly
