Sebastian Schelter commented on MAHOUT-827: ------------------------------------------- This job does not dump the item-item similarities, it provides an alternative way to compute the actual recommendations by replacing the reduce-side join of the current RecommenderJob with a map-only broadcast join (which only works as long as the similarity matrix fits into memory). We could also think about integrating it into the current RecommenderJob. > Another version of RecommenderJob that broadcasts the similarity matrix > ----------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MAHOUT-827 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAHOUT-827 > Project: Mahout > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: Collaborative Filtering > Affects Versions: 0.6 > Reporter: Sebastian Schelter > Assignee: Sebastian Schelter > Attachments: MAHOUT-827.patch > > > Add another version of RecommenderJob that computes the item similarities via > RowSimilarityJob but assumes that the resulting similarity matrix fits into > the memory of the mappers in the cluster. After the item similarity > computation is done, the similarities are broadcasted via Hadoop's > distributed cache and the recommendations are computed in a map-only pass > over the data afterwards. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
