Frank Scholten commented on MAHOUT-845:
---------------------------------------
+1 Adding that method to Vector. This way we have both top weights and top
terms for any vector. We can remove the TermIndexWeight helper class from
ClusterDumper. I'll submit a patch tomorrow.
> Make cluster top terms code more reusable
> -----------------------------------------

> Key: MAHOUT-845
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAHOUT-845
> Project: Mahout
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Clustering
> Reporter: Frank Scholten
> Priority: Minor
>
> When working with Mahout text clustering I find that I keep writing code
> similar to the contents of
> public static String getTopFeatures(Cluster cluster, String[] dictionary, int
> numTerms)
> in ClusterDumper in order to determine cluster labels.
> I think it would be useful if (parts of) this code are added to the cluster
> or vector API so that you could do something like
> Cluster cluster = ... // get the cluster from seq file iterable
> String clusterLabel = cluster.getTopTerms(1, dictionary); // Do something
> with the label
> I think this would make it easier to export and post-process clustering
> results, like indexing or storing them elsewhere.
> Thoughts?
