JMSL™ Numerical Library 3.0 with Neural Network Functionality for Tailored Data Mining and Predictive Analytics

The JMSL™ Numerical Library Version 3.0 for Java™ applications is the only comprehensive 100% Java numerical analysis package available.

JMSL Numerical Library 3.0 offers the broadest collection of mathematical, statistical, financial, and charting classes and is designed to provide a fast, scalable framework for tailored analytical applications, enabling users in the fields of finance, business intelligence, bioinformatics and life sciences to easily create customized applications for data mining and predictive analysis of complex data.

New features in the JMSL™ Library 3.0 include:

  • Neural network engines for advanced forecasting and data mining.
  • Algorithms for easy pre- and post-processing of data.
  • Added multiple linear regression and non-linear regression algorithms for producing predictive models.
  • Hierarchical cluster analysis for classifying and analyzing data.
  • New heat map chart.

The JMSL Library 3.0 includes neural network technology that adds to the already broad selection of data mining, modeling and prediction technologies available across the IMSL family of products. The neural network technology was developed to mimic human problem-solving processes by applying knowledge gained from historical data to new situations, enabling businesses to build predictive models that increase in accuracy as more information is obtained. For example, companies can extract information such as historical cost data and apply this data to the neural network to forecast future costs with greater precision.

The JMSL Library 3.0 is the only solution for Java programmers, which combines integrated charting capabilities with the reliable mathematical and statistical functionality of the industry-leading IMSL™ Numerical Library algorithms. An important addition to the JMSL Library is the inclusion of the heat map chart type, which is most commonly used in life sciences to display two-dimensional arrays of color values. The heat map chart adds to an already strong and broad charting offering in the JMSL Library and helps analysts in a number of fields develop advanced numerical analysis applications in Java.

"Utilizing the JMSL Numerical Library redirects the precious time of our software developers that would otherwise be spent reinventing the wheel. Now the focus can be directed at implementing and refining new and innovative ideas."

The IMSL Numerical Libraries ­which include the IMSL C Library, IMSL Fortran Library and JMSL™ Library for Java™ applications - are the industry standard for numerical analysis. They deliver developers with the breadth and depth of core algorithms allowing for the rapid development of any application. Whether developing applications in C, Fortran, or Java, or on UNIX, Windows or Linux, the robust IMSL Libraries provide the reliable foundation and the building blocks developers need.
