Our team proposes the implementation of clustering heuristics in MeTTa, focusing initially on K-Means, Hierarchical Clustering, Spectral Clustering, and the Gaussian Mixture Model (GMM). Leveraging our experience in variational inference and EM algorithms, including past work on a generalized GMM model, we aim to align our approach with MeTTa’s design philosophy, collaborating closely with the Hyperon community to ensure an intuitive fit. By adhering to conventions from libraries like numpy, scikit-learn, and matplotlib, our project will create a foundational toolkit for unsupervised learning in MeTTa, promoting broader adoption and setting the stage for more advanced applications.
The goal is to implement clustering algorithms in MeTTa and demonstrate interesting functionality on simple but meaningful test problems. This serves as a working prototype providing guidance for development of scalable tooling providing similar functionality, suitable for serving as part of a Hyperon-based AGI system following the PRIMUS cognitive architecture.

In this initial phase our team will focus on understanding MeTTa’s syntax language constructs and foundational paradigms to ensure a solid grasp of its features and capabilities. This learning phase will include: - Hands-on experimentation with MeTTa code examples and the available documentation. - Collaboration with the Hyperon and OpenCog communities to gain insights and seek guidance where necessary. - Creating an initial interface outline that specifies user interactions with the package, aligning with MeTTa’s syntax and conventions.
A well-prepared team with a thorough understanding of MeTTa, along with a preliminary package design and interface draft to inform the subsequent implementation phases.
