NAME

       shogun -  A Large Scale Machine Learning Toolbox

SYNOPSIS

       shogun [options]

DESCRIPTION

       This manual page briefly documents the readline interface of shogun

       Shogun  is  a  large scale machine learning toolbox with focus on large
       scale kernel methods and especially on Support  Vector  Machines  (SVM)
       with  focus  to  bioinformatics.  It  provides  a  generic  SVM  object
       interfacing to several different SVM implementations. Each of the  SVMs
       can  be combined with a variety of the many kernels implemented. It can
       deal with weighted linear combination of a number of sub-kernels,  each
       of  which not necessarily working on the same domain, where  an optimal
       sub-kernel weighting can be learned  using  Multiple  Kernel  Learning.
       Apart from SVM 2-class classification and regression problems, a number
       of linear methods  like  Linear  Discriminant  Analysis  (LDA),  Linear
       Programming  Machine (LPM), (Kernel) Perceptrons and also algorithms to
       train hidden markov models are implemented. The  input  feature-objects
       can  be  dense, sparse or strings and of type int/short/double/char and
       can be converted into different feature types. Chains of  preprocessors
       (e.g.   substracting  the  mean) can be attached to each feature object
       allowing for on-the-fly pre-processing.

OPTIONS

       A summary of options is included below.

       -h, --help, /?
              Show summary of options.

       -i     listen on tcp port 7367 (hex of sg)

       filename
              execute a script by reading commands from file <filename>
