Free trains software for linux

Spam Trainer project makes it easier for GNOME users to train spam filtering software (e.g. SpamBayes or SpamAssassin) that "learns" how to tell the difference between real email (ham) and unsolicited messages (spam).

Not all email clients have spam filtering (and training) built in, and training external filtering programs can be fiddly.

Spam Trainer was written to provide easy (drag and drop) training from the Evolution mail client, and should work just as well with any email client that supports the drag and drop protocol implemented by the GTK+ toolkit.

Typing Trainer is an application suite that is directed towards students, from the novice to those who have the basic knowledge of the kebyoard finger layout, and want to train and exercise their expertese in typing.
The design of the latter program, also allows for an environment where students ability in typing, can be examined by the program. And the results stored in a central database and characters given.
Enhancements:
- Some bugfixes in unicode handling, primarily in the way results are displayed.
- Providing support for reading and writing Unicode files.
- Modifying the stringIdx routines, and connected code, to use wide characters.

Fearann Muin is an online role-playing game in a medieval fantasy world.
Fearann Muin is an online role-playing game (MMORPG without the Massive part) with a medieval-fantasy setting and standard rule sets. It will try to be focused on community and roleplaying instead of other aspects.
Main features:
Universe
- The setting of the game is Medieval Fantasy, similar to many other games (computer games or tabletop), but not copying exactly any system in particular. We plan to introduce non-standard creatures and environments more often as the development goes on.
- The initial races for playable characters are Dwarves, Elves and Humans; we plan to add new races later. While this doesnt sound original it has some benefits, like people knowing the race traits, so they can start playing right away without pondering which race is the best suited to their taste (as it happens when all the races in a game are original, unknown to you).
- The Rule Set is the standard for many games, with well-known classes, types of magic, spells, bonus and malus for each race, etc. We would prefer to not have some of the restrictions of the rule set (in example, we would prefer to have a class-less system); but as with the races, this allows us to work with a known standard that many people already know, so its easier to learn for most people, and its known to work (we chose to not make modifications at the moment, to not end up with an unbalanced, broken system).
- Well try to make of the environment a real, living world, when possible; with different behaviors for different creatures, the environment changing a bit with seasons, and so forth.
Community and Roleplay
- People will be able to sell items or resources that they craft and harvest; and maybe also sell other services, like training people with lower levels of knowledge, or being paid by performing tasks. This will provide a full range of social relationships based on economy, that will make the players to directly affect the rest of the world with every action; as well as provide the means to get a complex society running.
- There will be Player Guilds to allow people to form groups of friends or whatever interests they want; and there will be also some kind of Professional Guilds (the name is not decided yet, it might be even Universities or Schools) that will allow players to train and be part of that Institution, which will play a powerful role in the game.
Combat
- PvP is restricted, it will be allowed in the form of Duels, where one player challenges another one, and this one decides whether to engage in combat or not. There might be some special areas (arenas) where this will be allowed without the player having to agree to fight, or maybe complete maps where PvP is unrestricted, we havent decided that yet.
- Fighting with creatures and NPCs is usually allowed (althought it might not always be a wise decision :) ), and were designing it at the moment, probably itll will be present in the next release.
- Guild vs. Guild or similar advanced forms of combat are not yet planned, since we need a significant amount of things working before we get to that, and we have to learn from experience before being able to implement them. This doesnt mean that we dont want to have it, its just that were not ready to implement it in the next few releases yet.

Speak Good Chinese is a cross-platform application based on GTK technology that allows you or your students to train their Mandarin pronunciation. Our software is based on Praat, leading software in speech analysis. Our speech technology is backed by the Institute of Phonetic Sciences part of the University of Amsterdam.
SpeakGoodChinese software was supported financially by the DU. Questions can be mailed to stefandekonink@xs4all.nl, they will be forwarded to the appropriate project member.
Enhancements:
- This release makes administrative tasks easier for teachers or students that want to manage or distribute their own wordlists.
- Another new feature in this subsystem is the shuffle function.
- Several bugs were solved related to cleaning up old recordings.
- New documentation was added.

Score Reading Trainer helps you improve your (musical) score reading skills by practicing with random scores.
It works in a very simple way, you choose the clef, the key and the accidentals you want to practice as well as thee range of notes and then, the program generates a on-screen score with that parameters but randomizing the notes and the accidentals (and everything else that is randomizable).
The keys of the keyboard are mapped to the notes like in a piano (it would be nice to support midi in the future) and all you have to do, is press the right key for the first note you see in the score on the screen.
If you pressed the right key, the note will disapear and replaced by the second one, a diferent note, and you have to repeat the process.
As the notes are generated randomly, theres no way one can predict the following note and since several notes (as much as the screen allows) are on the screen, one can also train pre-reading (reading ahead of the current one) of the notes.
The program doesnt emit any sound (at least, yet) and its not inteded to teach rithmic or melodic concepts.
Enhancements:

CTF project is a multi-agent capture-the-flag framework for education.
This project was started by Jason Rohrer during the fall of 2000 and was initially used to teach CS 472, Introduction to AI, at Cornell University.
A homework assignment was given that asked students to design a CTF agent for the framework.
Students in the class responded to the assignment with great enthusiasm, and many of their final agents far exceeded our expectations (one student group went so far as to design a genetic algorithm to evolve a team of agents).
CTF forces students to explore the issues surrounding agents that operate in a limited information environments.
The framework is flexible enough to allow almost any possible implementation of agent control, from the simplest reactive agents, to agents that query powerful knowledge bases, to neural network agents that are trained by back propagation or reinforcement methods.
When using this framework at Cornell, we left the assignment open-ended. However, you can use this framework in your own class to teach a specific agent control concept (by forcing every student to implement a reinforcement learning system, for example).
Main features:
- Runtime loading of agent classes-- plugging new agents into the framework is incredibly easy
- Runtime loading of obstacle maps
- Automatic round-robin tournament system
- Automatic grading-- an email-ready message is generated for each student team at the end of the tournament (a script for sending out the email messages is included); the point system can be completely configured
- Assignment handout-- click here to see an example of the instructions we handed out to students for CS 472 at Cornell
- Licensed under GPL-- if the framework doesnt work for you as is, you can improve it yourself
