Canova

Join the chat at https://gitter.im/deeplearning4j/deeplearning4j

Canova is an Apache2 Licensed open-sourced tool for vectorizing raw data into usable vector formats across machine learning tools. Canova provides both an API and a command line interface (CLI).

Why Would I Use Canova?

Canova allows a practitioner to take raw data and produce open standard compliant vectorized data (svmLight, etc) in under 5 minutes. Current input data types supported out of the box:

  • CSV Data
  • Raw Text Data (Tweets, Text Documents, etc)
  • Image Data
  • Custom File Formats (MNIST)

Installation

We have several options to work with Canova. The most common way would be to download the last stable released tarball.

Clone from the Github Repository

Canova is actively developed and you can clone the repository, compile it and reference it in your project. First clone the ND4J repo and build compile prior to building Canova.

Clone the repository:

$ git clone https://github.com/deeplearning4j/Canova.git

Compile the project:

$ cd canova && mvn clean install -DskipTests -Dmaven.javadoc.skip=true

Add the local compiled file dependencies to your pom.xml file like the following example:

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.nd4j</groupId>
    <artifactId>canova-api-SNAPSHOT</artifactId>
    <version>0.0.0.3</version>
</dependency>

Use Maven Central Repository

Search for [canova](https://search.maven.org/#search%7Cga%7C1%7CCanova) to get a list of jars you can use

Add the dependency information into your pom.xml
