CFS-C:

CFS-C 1.0 is a domain independent collection of CLASSIFIER SYSTEM routines written by Rick L. Riolo as part of his PhD dissertation. A completely rewritten CFS-C is planned for 1994/95; this may include the features of CFS-C 2.0 mentioned in [SAB90] (e.g. "latent learning") or they may be included in a separate package released in 1995. An ANSIfied version of CFS-C 1.0 (CFS-C 1.98j) is available by FTP.

CFS-C is available from ENCORE (See Q15.3) in file: CFS/src/cfsc-1.98j.tar.gz and includes the original 1.02 CFS-C in its "cfsc/orig" folder after unpacking. On the "SyS" FTP server its: ftp://lumpi.informatik.uni-dortmund.de/pub/LCS/src/cfsc-1.98j.tar.gz with documentation in /pub/LCS/docs/cfsc.ps.gz

Another version of CFS-C (version XV 0.1) by Jens Engel <engel@asterix.irb.uni- hannover.de> is also available. This includes bug fixes of earlier versions, allowing it to run on a wider range of machines (e.g. Linux and nCUBE). It also has an XView front end that makes it easier to control, and some extensions to the algorithms. It is available from Encore in file: CFS/src/cfscxv-0.1.tar.gz with documentation in CFS/docs/cfscxv-0.1.readme.gz
