Paritosh Ranjan updated MAHOUT-1103:
------------------------------------
Attachment: MAHOUT-1103.patch
Dmitriy - yes, I think it was the same error.
Matt - I have created a partitioner and applied it at
ClusterOutputPostProcessorDriver assuming the valid cluster Ids are the latest
and sequential i.e. ids will be VL-8543 to VL 8563 if 20 unique clusters are
there. The attached test case demonstrates that it will work for this scenario.
If you want, you can try this patch on trunk, and check whether it works or
not. I am not sure about it, as I still need to figure out the nomenclature of
relevant cluster Ids.

> Project: Mahout

> Components: Clustering
> Affects Versions: 0.8

> After running kmeans clustering on a set of ~3M points, clusterpp fails to
> populate directories for some clusters, no matter what k is.
> I've tested this on my data with k = 300, 250, 150, 100, 50, 25, 10, 5, 2
> Even with k=2 only one cluster directory was created. For each reducer that
> fails to produce directories there is an empty part-r-* file in the output
> directory.
> Here is my command sequence for the k=2 run:
> {noformat}bin/mahout kmeans -i ssvd2/USigma -c 2clusters/init-clusters -o
> 2clusters/pca-clusters -dm
> org.apache.mahout.common.distance.TanimotoDistanceMeasure -cd 0.05 -k 2 -x 15
> -cl
> bin/mahout clusterdump -i 2clusters/pca-clusters/clusters-*-final -o
> 2clusters.txt
> bin/mahout clusterpp -i 2clusters/pca-clusters -o 2clusters/bottom{noformat}
> The output of clusterdump shows two clusters: VL-3742464 and VL-3742466
> containing 2585843 and 1156624 points respectively.
> Discussion on the user mailing list suggested that this might be caused by
> the default hadoop hash partitioner. The hashes of these two clusters aren't
> identical, but they are close. Putting both cluster names into a Text and
> caling hashCode() gives:
> VL-3742464 -> -685560454
> VL-3742466 -> -685560452
> Finally, when running with "-xm sequential", everything performs as expected.
