STK++

Participant : Serge Iovleff.

STK++ is a multi-platform toolkit written in C++ for creating fast and easy to use data mining programs. It offers a large set of templated class in C++ which are suitable for projects ranging from small one-off projects to complete statistical application suites. A C equivalent would be gsl. However, STK++ is developed in C++ in order to get speed and reusability.

As the aim of STK++ is to aid developers to new developments, it proposes essentially interfaces classes and various concrete helping classes, like arrays, numerical methods (QR, SVD), input and output (csv files), random number generators... For instance, some part of the project will be integrated to the co-cluster project (in the MIXMOD software, see Section  5.1 ) actually developed by Parmeet Bathia.

The software is regularly developed since 10 years by Serge Iovleff and it is a work in progress. More information is available on the website http://www.stkpp.org/ and source repository is here: https://sourcesup.cru.fr/projects/stk/
