Grant Ingersoll commented on MAHOUT-344: ---------------------------------------- Also, Ankur, do you have a reference to what your implementation is based off of? I'm mostly wondering about the purpose of the keyGroups option. (I get what it does at the syntax level, wondering about the purpose of it) > Minhash based clustering > ------------------------- > > Key: MAHOUT-344 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAHOUT-344 > Project: Mahout > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Clustering > Affects Versions: 0.3 > Reporter: Ankur > Assignee: Ankur > Fix For: 0.4 > > Attachments: MAHOUT-344-v1.patch, MAHOUT-344-v2.patch, > MAHOUT-344-v3.patch, MAHOUT-344-v4.patch, MAHOUT-344-v5.patch, > MAHOUT-344-v6.patch, MAHOUT-344-v7.patch > > > Minhash clustering performs probabilistic dimension reduction of high > dimensional data. The essence of the technique is to hash each item using > multiple independent hash functions such that the probability of collision of > similar items is higher. Multiple such hash tables can then be constructed > to answer near neighbor type of queries efficiently. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
