How to Add Pseudo Code to Moa

[Osama A.Mahdi]

Hi everyone, 

I am new to using Moa and I have wrote an algorithm, my question is how can I add or write the algorithm inside Moa to be implemented. 

I have read the Manual but I did not get it, its all about selecting classifiers and settings but did not show how to add algorithm.

Your help is highly appreciated. 

Yours truly,

Osama

Hi Osama,

To add a new algorithm what you need to do is extend from the appropriate Abstract class and implement the required methods. For example, if you are going to add a new classifier you will extend from AbstractClassifier and implement resetLearningImpl, trainOnInstance, ...
My advice is that you base your implementation on an existing classifier, for example, use NaiveBayes.java or OzaBag.java implementation as example.

Hi Heitor,

Many thanks for your reply and advice,

Do you mean implement my work using the existing classifiers with Java platform??? actually that what I have done. 

In this direction, plz do you have any idea how to train a classifier incrementally? I have found that Classifiers implementing the weka.classifiers.UpdateableClassifier to train incrementally. But who can I do it with MOA?

Your help is highly appreciated. 

Yours truly,

Hi Osama, 

You can do it in MOA by extending the AbstractClassifier class. Take a look at this tutorial at the MOA website:

https://moa.cms.waikato.ac.nz/tutorial-2-introduction-to-the-api-of-moa/

This shall help you develop your own incremental classifier.
