I'm trying to use MultiClassFLDA in discriminant analysis package but I always get an error on running the code and defining a new instance of the MultiClassFLDA class
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: no/uib/cipr/matrix/Vector

It seems to be linked to some dynamic class loading in newer versions of Weka, presumably within the Weka Package Manager: that class is defined in the mtj.jar, which is bundled inside weka.jar. In that other question, an answer suggested to extract the mtj.jar and add it to your classpath.
As I didn't have this problem with other Filters, my guess is that MultiClassFLDA is not implemented correctly: I found out is that if you use another Filter before, that specific class will get loaded:
// Run a dummy Filter for correct initialization
Filter f = new Standardize();
f.setInputFormat(data);
Filter.useFilter(new Instances("", params, 0), f); // Dummy run on empty dataset
// Now run the MultiClassFLDA
f = new MultiClassFLDA();
f.setInputFormat(data);
data = Filter.useFilter(data, f);
N.B. that is a really ugly hack! I used it to be able to work. I'll edit my answer when I find the appropriate way to do it (other than extracting the jar from Weka itslef).
After some research I haven't found a solution, but quite alot of people with this problem:
I am trying to do a XQuery Transformation in a Java Application using
net.sf.saxon.s9api
However I get this error when trying to compile XQueryExecutable exec = compiler.compile(...)); my XQuery:
Error on line 13 column 3 of AivPumaRequest.xquery:
XPST0081 XQuery static error near #... fn-bea:inlinedXML(fn:concat#:

Error on line 44 column 102 of AivPumaRequest.xquery:

XPST0081 XQuery static error near #... {fn-bea:inlinedXML(fn:concat#:
Prefix fn-bea has not been declared
net.sf.saxon.s9api.SaxonApiException: Prefix fn-bea has not been declared
Is there a way to static include this prefix or what am I missing so my XQuery Engine (SAXON) finds the Prefix?
The simple answer to your question is that you can declare namespace prefixes either within the query prolog using
declare namespace fn-bea = "http://some-appropriate-uri";
or in the Saxon API using
XQueryCompiler.declareNamespace("fn-bea", "http://some-appropriate-uri")
But this won't get you any further unless (a) you know what URI to bind the prefixes to, and (b) you make the functions with these names available to the query processor.
The reference to xdt:dayTimeDuration suggests to me that this query was written when XQuery was still a working draft. If you look at the 2005 working draft, for example
https://www.w3.org/TR/2005/CR-xquery-20051103/
you'll see in section 2 that it uses a built-in prefix
xdt = http://www.w3.org/2005/xpath-datatypes
By the time XQuery 1.0 became a recommendation, the dayTimeDuration data type had been moved into the standard XML Schema (xs) namespace, so you can probably simply replace "xdt" by "xs" - though you should be aware that the semantics of the language probably changed in minor details as well.
As for fn-bea:inlinedXML, the choice of prefix suggests to me that this was probably a built-in vendor extension in the BEA query processor, which was taken over by Oracle. The spec here:
https://docs.oracle.com/cd/E13162_01/odsi/docs10gr3/xquery/extensions.html
says:
fn-bea:inlinedXML Parses textual XML and returns an instance of the
XQuery 1.0 Data Model.
Which suggests that the function does something very similar to the XQuery 3.0 function fn:parse-xml(), and I suggest you try making that replacement in your query.
Background
I'm using wsimport to create what is essentially a Java webservice client, connecting to a .Net webservice that is returning datasets (unfortunately). To be more specific I'm working on a project (inbound transport) for the GeoEvent Processor suite of ESRI ArcGIS Server 10.2, but I think this might be answered on more general terms in relation to JAXB and WSDL bindings. Bear with me as I haven't touched Java since college (10+ years).
For purposes of the WSDL, the .Net DataSet is a polymorphic type whose actual layout isn't determined until run time, after the DataSet has been filled with data. This causes problems when you want to use that webservice with anything but .Net.
After some research I've managed to use wsimport to generate from the webservice wsdl. I was then able to put together a basic proof of concept program that gets results from the webservice as a DOM, then walks that DOM as a nodelist.
Reference:
JAX-WS error on WSDL file: "Error resolving component 's:schema'"
https://weblogs.java.net/blog/vivekp/archive/2007/05/how_to_deal_wit_1.html
The section on Toolkit Bindings and figure 6 in http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/magazine/cc188755.aspx
My wsimport looks like this (domain names have been changed to protect the innocent):
C:\Development\ArcGIS\WSDL>wsimport -b http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema.xsd -b xsd.xjb -keep -p com.somecompany.services -XadditionalHeaders http://services.somecompany.com/DataRetrieval.asmx?wsdl
The Problem
Unfortunately, the same codebase that worked in my proof of concept, getting results from the webservice, fails once I implement in the ArcGIS GeoEvent Processor. My project is part of an OSGI bundle that the ArcGIS GeoEvent Processor will control. The error below is as shown in the Apache Karaf log for the GeoEvent Processor.
Based on the error, my understanding is there is a problem with how I did the binding in wsimport, referencing the generic schema per those links I have listed above. Looks like the generic schema lacks definitions for some of the elements that exist as classes generated by wsimport. Those classes appear to be properly generated when I check the output from wsimport.
I've not included the WSDL due to posting limitations, but will include in later responses if needed.
What I'm trying to figure out
How should this error be interpreted?
Why does the same wsimport generated code used to access the webservice in my basic proof of concept fail when run in the ArcGIS GeoEvent Processor?
The error mentions JAXB and SAX, I'm not consciously referencing either of those libraries in the proof of concept or the project for the ArcGIS GeoEvent Processor. Could it be that the binding/unmarshalling of the webservice is handled differently, with ArcGIS GeoEvent Processor wrapping in JAXB/SAX and the proof of concept not?
What can I do to resolve this?
Use a different, custom, xsd and xjb that spells out the expected schema for the webservice? I'm not sure exactly how that would be done.
Use something other than wsimport to generate the webservice reference classes?
Tweak something in the java environment for the ArcGIS GeoEvent Processor?
Other options?
Commit seppuku, then it's not my problem?

Environment Specifics
JDK 7u17 (1.7.0_17) 64 bit. The ArcGIS GeoEvent Processor is using this version of the JRE, so I'm locked into that version for execution. Though I've done some development in 1.7.0_51 before I realized that.
wsimport - JAX-WS RI 2.2.4-b01
ArcGIS Server 10.2
ArcGIS GeoEvent Processor Extension
Karaf (used by ArcGIS Geovent Processor to run OSGI bundles)
This is probably not the best answer on this, but it's what I came up with.
The ArcGIS GeoEvent Processor that wrapped my OSGI project appeared to be doing some additional binding/unbinding of the web service that I referenced in my application. The work-around that I employed to get that .Net (DataSet return values) web service to function in Java just wasn't acceptable to that wrapper from the GeoEvent Processor.
My Solution
Ultimately what I did was create a secondary .Net web service which took the DataSet values and converted them to JSON, and returned JSON strings. This removed the problems encountered when attempting to reference DataSet return values from the web service, now I was dealing with a simple JSON string. The wsimport of that JSON web service went smooth, no work-around required. I tucked the newly imported web service files into my java project and now have no problems.
For Reference on C# DataSet to JSON:
Using Newtonsoft.Json (http://james.newtonking.com/json). After playing with a few other libraries for JSON serialization that is what I found worked best for me.
Newtonsoft.Json is available via NuGet package
Rick Strahl's site was a big help http://weblog.west-wind.com/posts/2008/Sep/03/DataTable-JSON-Serialization-in-JSONNET-and-JavaScriptSerializer
I want to use Uniqueness for my Traversal.
Based on this tutorial, I'm using the following code :
GraphDatabaseService database = new RestGraphDatabase("http://localhost:7474/db/data");
TraversalDescription td = database.traversalDescription().uniqueness(Uniqueness.RELATIONSHIP_GLOBAL);
This code gave me the following error :
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException: Only values of class org.neo4j.kernel.Uniqueness are supported
at org.neo4j.rest.graphdb.traversal.RestTraversal.restify(RestTraversal.java:63)

at org.neo4j.rest.graphdb.traversal.RestTraversal.uniqueness(RestTraversal.java:50)
at org.neo4j.rest.graphdb.traversal.RestTraversal.uniqueness(RestTraversal.java:37)
I already had to change the Traversal.description() to database.traversalDescription() because of deprecated but now I face the same problem for Uniqueness. In my example I used org.neo4j.graphdb.traversal.Uniquess because org.neo4j.kernel.Uniqueness is deprecated...
When using the package mentionned by the error I have a NullPointerException during the traverse() method, with no stack trace.
I'm using :
REST API : neo4j-rest-graphdb-2.0.0-M06.jar
Neo4j : neo4j-desktop-2.0.0.jar
Best regards.
There have been API changes in Neo4j 2.0 which are not in neo4j-rest-graphdb-2.0.0-M06
If you pull the latest neo4j-rest-graphdb github repo and build it locally it should work against: neo4j-rest-graphdb-2.0.0-SNAPSHOT

Please let me know what could be the problem.
As described in the documentation
Thrown if an application tries to call a specified method of a class (either static or instance), and that class no longer has a definition of that method.
Here's how this can happen. Imagine you built some code that used a library with a method called foo(). You compiled your project and then later decided to upgrade the library. You do this by overwriting the old jar file with the new one. You don't recompile your code.
But what you didn't know is the new library removed the foo() method. Now if you run your code, it will throw this exception because your compile code calls this method and it's no longer there.
In your specific case, this isn't necessarily your code with the problem. It could be that you have one library that uses another library and the problem is there (for example, Library X uses version 2 of Library Y, but you only have Library Y version 1 in your classpath). If this is happening, you need to make sure the libraries are using the version they expect.
For your specific problem, you need to find the version of the jar that has org.apache.xmlgraphics.java2d.GraphicContext in it and it needs to have a constructor that takes a... list of org/apache/xmlgraphics/java2d/GraphicContext... maybe. I forget what (L...;)V means.
