Review on FACTORIE by Dusty Oner

I enjoy using Factorie to work through problems related to Bayesian networks or graphical models - it makes things so much easier than trying them out by hand (as if you could do this without some sort of computer!).

The documentation can be confusing at times but once an example works well enough my confidence grows! When starting off new projects there are often multiple ways/tools people use when modelling these sorts of relationships; however none seem particularly intuitive nor easy-to understand compared even just looking up how certain tools like R deal with similar structures etcetera.. So while not exactly 'hard' per se having used more traditional methods myself before learning about bayes nets / graph theory approaches from literature i know what they feel like now :) And am able to easily model data which does have such structure within existing frameworks too e.g Tensorflow has libraries specifically geared towards working wth bn's.
