Re: machine learning API, common models
I am curious as to why Oryx 2.0 and Mahout have been excluded from this doc. Any reasons? Both the projects have good customer base and are being used in production.

Fwd: machine learning API, common models
Thanks Simone for pointing this out. On the Apache Mahout project we have distributed linear algebra with R-like semantics that can be executed on Spark/Flink/H2O. @Kam: the document u point out is old and outdated, the most up-to-date reference to the Samsara api is the book - 'Apache Mahout: Beyond MapReduce". (shameless marketing here on behalf of fellow committers :) ) We added Flink DataSet API in the recent Mahout 0.12.0 release (April 11, 2016) and has been called out in my talk at ApacheBigData in Vancouver last week. The Mahout community would definitely be interested in being involved with this and sharing notes. IMHO, the focus should be first on building a good linalg foundations before embarking on building algos and pipelines. Adding @dlyubimov to this. -- Forwarded message -- From: Simone Robutti Date: Tue, May 17, 2016 at 9:48 AM Subject: Fwd: machine learning API, common models To: Suneel Marthi -- Forwarded message -- From: Kavulya, Soila P Date: 2016-05-17 1:53 GMT+02:00 Subject: RE: machine learning API, common models To: "dev@beam.incubator.apache.org" Thanks Simone, You have raised a valid concern about how different frameworks will have different implementations and parameter semantics for the same algorithm. I agree that it is important to keep this in mind. Hopefully, through this exercise, we will identify a good set of common ML abstractions across different frameworks. Feel free to edit the document. We had limited the first pass of the comparison matrix to the machine learning pipeline APIs, but we can extend it to include other ML building blocks like linear algebra operations, and APIs for optimizers like gradient descent.

Thanks for the samsura reference - I've been looking at the spark/scala bindings http://mahout.apache.org/users/sparkbindings/ScalaSparkBindings.pdf . I think we should expand the document to include linear algebraic ops or least pay due diligence to it. If you're doing anything on the flink side in this regard let us or feel free to suggest edits/updates to the document.
