Cristi Prodan commented on MAHOUT-344:
--------------------------------------
I've studied the min-hash algorithm these days, and your implementation a
little bit. Also been looking through Mahout's code, the wiki, how to
contribute etc.
I'm thinking to try my hand at applying a patch to Mahout before submitting my
proposal for GSoC. I would like to extend/improve this implementation. Could
you please point out a way/idea on how I might do this ? (I would leave it's
integrating with Taste as a second task for me.)
Thank you.

> 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.
