Hi, I'm wondering whether we want to create an ML:: namespace for Machine Learning stuff. The reasons in favor might be:
1) "AI" is sort of a loaded term, and attracts its fair share of wackos. For this reason, many researchers eschew it. 2) Many interesting things would fit better into "Machine Learning" than they would into AI, just because they don't really claim to be "intelligent", but they do learn from observed data. Reasons against might be: 1) "ML" isn't nearly as well-known a term as "AI", so casual browsers of CPAN won't find things there as easily. 2) The AI:: namespace already exists and contains some interesting things, and it would be a shame to split the namespace without a good reason. Comments? I ask because I'm working on a rewrite of AI::Categorize, and I'm wondering whether it might fit better under the ML:: namespace. -Ken
