Title: Numbers pattern recognition software
Post by: Axon on January 25, 2014, 06:16:21 PM
Does anyone know any software (preferably open source) for numbers pattern recognition? I'm looking for a software where the user inputs a set of numbers, then the software will do a pattern recognition, after that the software will generate numbers based on the patterns.

Nope, I'm working on something that involves numbers. But my work has some flavour of trickery.

It's rather simple to do.  I mean it shouldn't be too hard to code it in something like C++.  Basically you just need to brute force the pattern.  There are more efficient ways but on modern computers that should work fine for your needs.  Don't do it for images but for numbers you can.

Functional languages like Lisp and Haskell are particularly adept for your use case, as their paradigm is fundamentally designed to easily process structured data (be it lists, strings, tuples, tables or whatever) with constructs like map, reduce, cons, car, cdr and plenty more.

Although really, you can do this in any language, as it's not that specialized. Just grab a numerical computing library and I assume it'll be arbitrary.

Thank you for the help guys, although I was looking for a quick fix, but that's ok. I think I should work on this by my own. I was going to write my idea behind using such software, but I think I'll keep it to myself until the outcome is satisfying.

I'm thinking MATLAB or Python should the trick, since I have some background with them.

Cheers.

MATLAB would work great
