Apache Spark reassigned SPARK-7894: ----------------------------------- Assignee: (was: Apache Spark) > Graph Union Operator > -------------------- > > Key: SPARK-7894 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-7894 > Project: Spark > Issue Type: Sub-task > Components: GraphX > Reporter: Andy Huang > Labels: graph, union > Attachments: union_operator.png > > > This operator aims to union two graphs and generate a new graph directly. The > union of two graphs is the union of their vertex sets and their edge > families.Vertexes and edges which are included in either graph will be part > of the new graph. > bq. G ∪ H = (VG ∪ VH, EG ∪ EH). > The below image shows a union of graph G and graph H > !union_operator.png|width=600px,align=center! > A Simple interface would be: > bq. def union[VD: ClassTag, ED: ClassTag](other: Graph[VD, ED]): Graph[VD, ED] > However, inevitably vertexes and edges overlapping will happen between > borders of graphs. For vertex, it's quite nature to just make a union and > remove those duplicate ones. But for edges, a mergeEdges function seems to be > more reasonable. > bq. def union[VD: ClassTag, ED: ClassTag](other: Graph[VD, ED], mergeEdges: > (ED, ED) => ED): Graph[VD, ED] -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: issues-unsubscr...@spark.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: issues-h...@spark.apache.org
