Hello -cafe,
When I started learning Haskell, I saw the AI page [1] which aimed at creating a sound, uniform and handy framework for AI programming in Haskell. I added my name on it and thought a bit about it. I even wrote a first version of HNN [2], a neural network library, quite early in my Haskell days.
I found that idea to be great but did not see any actual effort around this. So, I'm now thinking again about that and even enlarging it to mathematics & AI. Thus, I would like to have an idea of the number of people interested in being involved in such an effort. There are several tools out there on hackage but they aren't that much uniform and neither play nicely together. I'm pretty convinced this could be improved and as a Mathematics student I'm highly interested in that. If enough people are interested, we could for example set up a mailing list and a trac to organize the effort and then people could just discuss and write Haskell modules when time permits.
Any comment, idea, reaction, interest ?

Yea, I'm interested. Over the last several months I've been reading a few books on AI and have been trying to distill a Haskell library out of them: The library is pretty primitive so far, but this is what i have laid out: - Neural Networks (usable) - Blackboard Architecture (work in progress) - FSM (usable) - Genetic Algorithms (usable) - Goal Oriented Behaviors (work in progress) - Goal Oriented Planning (work in progress) - Markov Chains (work in progress) - Steering (usable) - Fuzzy Logic (usable) - Decision Tree (work in progress) At the moment I'm working on some constrained delaunay triangulation algorithms to use for spatial reasoning / path planning.
