Free learning software for linux

machine learning framework for Mathematica is a collection of powerful machine learning algorithms integrated into a framework for the main purpose of data analysis.
Fuzzy logic is one of its key techniques. The framework allows for combining different machine learning algorithms to solve one single problem. This combination of distinct algorithms may give the user unforeseen insights into its data.
The algorithms are highly parameterizable. Given this parameterizability combined with the efficient core engine of the machine learning framework for Mathematica, the user is able to analyze their data interactively, with short cycles of changing parameter settings and examining the results.
The machine learning framework for Mathematica covers a wide range of machine learning algorithms which can be integrated to work together and therefore yield new results.
Enhancements:
- runs native on Intel-Macs
- runs in 64-bit mode on G5-Macs
- fuzzy decision trees
- fuzzy rule learning
- fuzzy regression trees
- cluster descriptions
- optimization of fuzzy controllers
- self-organizing maps
- automated model testing
- advanced data visualization.

Russian Language Learning is a Java application that helps you to learn Russian using the Leitner system.

Memorizing words and phrases will not only be more efficient, but the system is a joy to use. Each card also has the phrase spoken by a native russian speaker, to help with pronunciation.

The Leitner system is a way of progressively learning words by placing them in stacks. The words you know are placed in stacks seperate from the words that are still troubling you, for more efficient learning.

And there is one other thing about Tanooshka.com language learning. Each set of cards, are the words to a movie, so when youve learned the set of words, you can watch the movie, and understand it! In Russian!

Elgg: the Learning Landscape is a community building platform written in PHP for MySQL and Apache.
It gives you the tools to create active and vibrant learning communities, featuring Weblogging, podcasting, social networking, file storage, tag searching, customised user themes, gettext multi-language support, and more.
Users can control exactly who has access to each bit of their profile, each blog post, file, etc., and then search using tags to find other resources and people related to the same topic.
Although originally designed for education, it has a broad range of uses in a variety of different settings.
Enhancements:
- Generalised comments
- Bugfixes, efficiency improvements

Lavengro is a cross-platform, console-based vocabulary-test engine. The project uses text files as its tests.
The tests themselves are created by you. It has a tutor mode, a test mode, and a CBT learning mode. There is also a bsd-quiz mode for nostalgias sake.
Enhancements:
- Installation and documentation fixes.

Klang project is a free language learning package for KDE and QT.
Klang interface currently provides:
- Vocabulary trainer.
- Questionnaire trainer.
Also there is Kedit, and editor for adding your own content to Klang.
Since its still at development stage there might be changes to the database structure, so dont thrust that there will be cross-compatibility between this version and the next, as of yet!
I guess I will make some import/extract tools later, but now I have to focus on the basic structure first. See the screen shots for an idea of the application.
Enhancements:
- The new version has removed its dependencies on ODBC and compiles directly with MySQL.
- The new version features sound support with OSS, integration plugin for LingoTeach.xml files (klang-edit) and serveral fixes form the previous version

Kanji Nirvana project is a learning tool for Japanese Kanji.
Kanji Nirvana is a tool for the assisted study of Japanese Kanji characters.
KanjiNirvana is a kanji reference and learning tool for Sharps SL5x00 and A300 Zaurus PDAs. It is aimed at students of the japanese language and anyone else who is interested in japanese characters.
One of the many difficulties students of the japanese language have to cope with, is the huge number of unique characters (kanji) they have to memorize.
Everyone who has tried to learn japanese knows the problem: When reading a text you very often encounter a kanji you havent memorized yet and a lot of time has to be spend finding the character in a kanji dictionary.
After finding it you normally would like to memorize it, so that you dont have to look it up again and again.
KanjiNirvana combines a flexible kanji lookup method with a simple kanji quiz for memorizing to help with these two common tasks.
Enhancements:
- editable hand multi-selectable itfield
- new "smart" quizz algorithm
- better conformance to QTopia desktop

FlashKard project is a vocabulary training tool.

It is designed to be used in any situation where a fixed set of vocabulary (technical or linguistic) is to be learnt.

FlashKard is a vocabulary studying tool for learning languages or terminology.
