Experiments for "Tandem Inference: An Out-of-Core Streaming Algorithm For Very Large-Scale Relational Inference".

Simple Execution

All the experiments can be run using the single run.sh script:

./run.sh

Advanced Execution

If you need more control over the experiments or want to modify the experiments, then you should start by examining the run.sh script. There are three main steps:

• Fetch the models/data using the scripts/setup_psl_examples.sh script.
• Run the inference experiments using the scripts/run_inference_experiments.sh script.
• Run the memory experiments using the scripts/run_memory_experiments.sh script.

Each script has options that can be set at the beginning of the script. The scripts/setup_psl_examples.sh is the place to make modifications if you want to change the version of PSL being used.

Requirements

These experiments expect that you are running on a POSIX (Linux/Mac) system. The specific application dependencies are as follows:

• Bash >= 4.0
• PostgreSQL >= 9.5
• Java >= 7
• Git
