predict

Satellite Tracking Program with Optional Voice Output

This is a satellite tracking program. It is probably mostly of interest to users of amateur satellites, but includes support for optionally announcing azimuth and elevation to help in manual antenna pointing, or optical observation of satellites. The upstream predict sources include a front-end called 'map', which is called predict-map in the Debian package. The 'ntp' package is suggested because accurate satellite tracking depends on precise knowledge of ground station time and location.

liblinear

liblinear is an open source library for large-scale linear

classification. It supports logistic regression and linear support vector machines. It provides easy-to-use command-line tools and library calls for users and developers. Comprehensive documents are available for both beginners and advanced users. Experiments demonstrate that liblinear is very efficient on large sparse data sets. liblinear is the winner of ICML 2008 large-scale learning challenge (linear SVM track). It is also used for winning KDD Cup 2010.
