[Nnhep] Proposal for the meeting

[Tomas Lastovicka]

Dear all,

i am traveling to CERN today from Montenegro. Unfortunately, i will be busy with the CLIC workshop on both Thursday and Friday the whole day and thus i am not sure i could join you at 29.05.09 11.00-12.00. I will contact you once at CERN.

Best,

Tomas

Subject: [Nnhep] Proposal for the meeting
 

     Dear Colleagues,
  we have discussed privately, the possible time of the first meeting
dedicated to NNHEP proposal. Looks like 3 people are in CERN now. Sasha
can be connected with skype.
    The proposed time is 29.05.09 11.00-12.00  If you want to change the
time, lets discuss it.

    The first version of the questions to discuss is the following:

1. We have to define the structure of interfaces between different
modules and understand what should be the input of the module and the
output.  
   Let me remind, what I mean the module, this is one independent
component e.g. one neural network or some other algorithm which has some
input and some output, internal set of the parameters and some way of
graphical representation of what is happened with the input in this
module.

2. We can start to discuss what modules (algorithms) we would like to
see as the components of the system and what parts we can take from the
available external code.
The first set could be the following: 
Feed-Forward Neural Network, Bayesian Neural Network, Boosting
algorithm, Decision trees, Self Organizing Maps, Likelihood
functions, ...
      Some of the modules are realized already in the exist packages
(e.g. Feed-Forward NN training with perfect optimizations and training
methods are realized in MLPfit package; BNN is realised in RuleFit,
etc.)

3. Practical realization of the discussed plans and how we plan to
proceed with the code development. 

        Please, correct/add the set of questions above and provide your
opinion.
              Best regards,
                    Lev
