Contributor - Data Analytics Acceleration Library

Description

Implements well-known machine learning algorithms into Scilab by mapping Intel DAAL available features as a toolbox. As the DAAL internals are very similar to the Scilab ones, it should be possible to avoid copying data between Scilab and DAAL computation.

Ideas

Scilab is good at mathematical and scientific computation and provides a lot of algorithm in these science domains however it lacks some algorithm in Big Data analysis. Having a mapping to a performant library to fulfill the gap and let our user compute results using whatever algorithm he wants would improve Scilab userbase.
