Python code for the semi-supervised learning method particle competition and cooperation
Python code for the semi-supervised learning method “particle competition and cooperation”. This particular code was used in my master’s thesis “Aid in Alzheimer’s disease diagnosis from magnetic resonance imaging using particle competition and cooperation“.
You need Python 3.7 or later to use pycc. You can find it at python.org.
The package is avaliable at PyPI. If you have pip, just run:
pip install pypcc
or clone this repo to your local machine using:
git clone https://github.com/caiocarneloz/pycc.git
The usage of this class is pretty similar to semi-supervised algorithms at scikit-learn. A “demo” code was added to this repository.
As arguments, pycc receives the values explained below:
