Installation

[generateme/fastmath "2.4.0"]

Alpha

[generateme/fastmath "3.0.0-alpha1"]

Source code in the 3.x branch.

2.3.0 GPL warning

Important Note

Fastmath 2.3.0 depends on SMILE 3.0.x which is GPL. That means that Fastmath 2.3.0 also should be treated as GPL. Version 2.4.x fixes it and brings back SMILE LGPL 2.x dependency.

MKL

Important Note

Fastmath relies on SMILE 2.6.0 which relies on BLAS/LAPACK via MKL and/or OpenBlas. MKL (preferred) and OpenBlas are included as dependencies in fastmath. This leads to addional 1GB of jar files. I can't assure that all functionalities will work on OpenBlas (see: #15) but 99% should. If you need fastmath to be lighter, please exclude MKL from your path.

{:deps {generateme/fastmath {:mvn/version "2.4.0"
                             :exclusions [com.github.haifengl/smile-mkl]}}}

If you don't need certain interpolation or clustering methods you can exclude OpenBlas as well (be warned that other things can break):

:exclusions [com.github.haifengl/smile-mkl org.bytedeco/openblas]

MKL Exception

When MKL is not available fastmath (SMILE actually, here and here) will throw two exceptions with full stack traces about lack of MKL. You can safely ignore them.

[main] DEBUG smile.math.blas.LAPACK - Failed to create MKL instance:
java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: smile.math.blas.mkl.MKL
[...]

[main] DEBUG smile.math.blas.BLAS - Failed to create MKL instance:
java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: smile.math.blas.mkl.MKL
[...]

Contribution

NOTE Currently we work on the 3.x branch only. PRs to master branch will not be accepted.

We accept PRs!

  • when fixing a bug/typo/docstring - just push a PR
  • if you want to add a new function or have an idea - please consult it before starting a work

Supporting libraries

Alternatives

Since this library is only JVM version, you can check following Clojure/ClojureScript libraries as replacement

  • PrimitiveMath - for primitive operators
  • Kixi stats - for pure clj(s) statistics/distributions (tends to be 2-10x slower)
  • thi.ng - for vectors, general math, noise, complex numbers, transforms (fourier)
  • vectorz-clj - fast vector operations
  • Incanter - statistics/distributions/probability

Java

Java classes are compiled for java 1.8
