SPIDER The SpiderThe spider is intended to be a complete object orientated environment for machine learning in Matlab. Aside from easy use of base learning algorithms, algorithms can be plugged together and can be compared with, e.g model selection, statistical tests and visual plots. This gives all the power of objects (reusability, plug together, share code) but also all the power of Matlab for machine learning research.

2003Script to fix naming conflicts
The spider library uses common names for its objects: knn, svm, etc.. which are also used by other libraries (e.g. NetLab). This makes it difficult to install spider objects along with other available libraries without name conflicts. To fix this problem, Rodrigo Fernandez (rodrigoandres.fernandezm@tin.it) has written two scripts in python that add to all spider objects the prefix 'sp_'. Click here to download.
