I = have lots of experience with functional programming in Java, and additional= ly have lots of familiarity with Haskell. I also have a strong knowledge ba= se of statistics but lack experience in R. Would the main aim of the projec= t to develop libraries of existing statistical methods using Java streams? = Thanks! > Stream-based Java statistical processing > ---------------------------------------- > > Key: STATISTICS-7 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/STATISTICS-7 > Project: Apache Commons Statistics > Issue Type: New Feature > Reporter: Eric Barnhill > Priority: Major > Labels: GSoC2019, gsoc2019, statistics, streams > > The=C2=A0new component aims to be a library of commons statistics functio= ns synchronized with the latest developments in the Java language, in parti= cular Java's functional programming syntax. > The library will make commonly used statistical functions available to an= end user through a simple grammar comparable to commons-math-statistics or= scikit-learn, while under the hood will implement Java's mapping, streamin= g, and other producer and consumer functions to ensure the statistical meth= ods run optimally in new Java implementations. > Developers working on the project will have the opportunity to demonstrat= e Java programming, functional programming, algorithm design, and data scie= nce skills and receive authorship on=C2=A0a commons project that is likely = to be widely used. > The ideal contributor will also be able to help with important architectu= ral decision making. The old source of these libraries, commons-math, grew = too large, hierarchically complex and interdependent for the commons missio= n. The developers on this project need to make architectural choices that w= ill enable the statiscal code to be lightweight and reusable, with a minimu= m of outside dependencies while avoiding redundancy. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
