All, I have begun work on an integration of Apache Solr and Mahout, http://github.com/algoriffic/lsa4solr which is related to #MAHOUT-343 (https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAHOUT-343 ). The implementation is in Clojure and interfaces with both the DistributedLanczosSolver and the distributed k-means clustering algorithm from Mahout. I am about to begin implementing a hierarchical clustering algorithm so that the number of clusters does not need to be specified in advance. Has anyone done anything like this in Mahout yet? Also, I'd be happy to contribute the code to Mahout if anyone is interested.
