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? -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
