mlpy - Machine Learning Python
mlpy is a Python module for Machine Learning built on top of NumPy/SciPy and the GNU Scientific Libraries.
mlpy provides a wide range of state-of-the-art machine learning methods for supervised and unsupervised problems and it is aimed at finding a reasonable compromise among modularity, maintainability, reproducibility, usability and efficiency. mlpy is multiplatform, it works with Python 2 and 3 and it is Open Source, distributed under the GNU General Public License version 3.
