About

This repository demonstrates a simple example of the LVQ4J library usage on the Iris Data Set, which is, perhaps, the best known study case in the machine classification field.

Building and running (Gradle)

Step 1. Download or clone this repository.

git clone https://github.com/MeGysssTaa/lvq4j-example-iris

Step 2. Build the example.

cd lvq4j-example-iris
./gradlew build

Step 3. Download the Iris Data Set.

Step 4. Run the example:

java -jar build/libs/lvq4j-example-iris-1.0.0.jar <train data file>

Profit! If you did everything correctly, the output you'll see will be similar to this:

lvq4j-example-iris $ java -jar build/libs/lvq4j-example-iris-1.0.0.jar /mnt/e/iris.csv

Next steps

See LVQ4J Wiki and try playing with the code, and then write an own classifier that makes use of LVQ4J.
