Opening excerpt (first ~120 words) tap to expand

ELKI: Environment for Developing KDD-Applications Supported by Index-Structures Quick Summary ELKI is an open source (AGPLv3) data mining software written in Java. The focus of ELKI is research in algorithms, with an emphasis on unsupervised methods in cluster analysis and outlier detection. In order to achieve high performance and scalability, ELKI offers data index structures such as the R*-tree that can provide major performance gains. ELKI is designed to be easy to extend for researchers and students in this domain, and welcomes contributions of additional methods. ELKI aims at providing a large collection of highly parameterizable algorithms, in order to allow easy and fair evaluation and benchmarking of algorithms.

Excerpt limited to ~120 words for fair-use compliance. The full article is at Github.
