I think this is a great discussion, and there are myriad ways to get there. I haven't settled my own opinions firmly enough to advocate for one implementation over another at this point, but I do think that Incanter could become a killer toolbox (even more than now) with the additon of...:
1. a literate programming "Notebook" solution - inspiring repeatable analysis, to communicate or publish methods and results). Perhaps RStudio (http://www.rstudio.com/ide/), Light Table, and Emacs should be metaphors for the shape this could take. A stretch goal might be something like Mathematica if this is even possible. 2. a Clojurescript visualization layer to make use of the amazing visualization currently in the javascript world. Perhaps these two things can effectively unify and become one via Light Table or Browser repl. A last idea is the integration of Incanter analysis with Pallet (https://github.com/pallet/pallet , http://palletops.com/) to spawn compute servers as necessary (perhaps GPU, perhaps cascalog/hadoop, or vowpal wabbit / hadoop, etc.. ) Best regards, Avram On Tuesday, February 11, 2014 4:44:54 PM UTC-8, Mikera wrote: > > On the idea of a workbench / clojurescript integration, I always liked the > idea of a Light Table based analytical workbench that could connect to a > Clojure-based Incanter server (which might of course be running all the > heavy computations on a core.matrix GPU backend......) > > I don't know enough ClojureScript to be able to mentor such a project, but > happy to add it as an idea..... should be feasible for a smart GSoC student > > On Saturday, 8 February 2014 07:02:52 UTC+8, A wrote: >> >> >> A couple ideas put forth: >> >> 1.
