Shannon Quinn commented on MAHOUT-524:
--------------------------------------
Sean: #4 is actually an off-by-one error that is the result of specifying
"--dimensions 37" when they are indexed in the input file as 1-37, when the
program is expecting 0-36. Changing the input parameter to "--dimensions 38" is
kind of a fix, although it will result in the first row and first column of
Mahout's internal representation of the affinity matrix to be all 0s.
Regarding the jobs, I have no idea how they ran previously; I never ran into
that problem when first writing the jobs. Apparently there's a widely-employed
use-case I simply didn't test?
Beyond that, still can't find the source of the error in the attached
EclipseLog; wherever that "/tmp" is being appended at the end, it isn't in any
of the core Mahout code.

> I've committed a new display example that attempts to push the standard
> mixture of models data set through spectral k-means. After some tweaking of
> configuration arguments and a bug fix in EigenCleanupJob it runs spectral
> k-means to completion. The display example is expecting 2-d clustered points
> and the example is producing 5-d points. Additional I/O work is needed before
> this will play with the rest of the clustering algorithms.
