    Hey, I have... I'm a co-author of Algebird[0], which has many ideas that I'd pull over.

    I'm hoping to introduce Clojure's "spec" or "schema" libraries so that the types at play can at least be inspectable inside the system. In a fully typed language, I'd implement the extensible generics as typeclasses.

    I suspect it would make it quite a bit tougher (at least in the approach I'm imagining) for folks to write new generic functions, due to many type constructors...

    On the other hand, the complexity is there, even if you don't write it down!

    It would be a big project, and a worthy effort, to write down types for everything in SICM.

    Also, you can look at breeze.generic.UFunc for an inspiration.
  • Data science in Scala

    You can use https://github.com/scalanlp/breeze. A Scala library that's sorta a numpy/plotting equivalent. Unlike Spark which covers more use cases than just the classic Data Science workflow, Breeze is built specifically for "Data Science in Scala". The drawback is a classic one in Scala land where some major libraries abruptly get abandoned. Breeze's commits seem to have slowed down significantly and their website on their github page www.scalanlp.org is broken.

    I haven't checked in on this project in a long time, but Breeze is something akin to NumPy/SciPy.
