Hi Zhao, The best way to share this is to generate a patch and attach it to an issue in JIRA. See the How To Contribute section on the wiki. I think many of us are interested, so it would be easier to have the discussion on the mailing list or JIRA instead of trying to manage it privately. -

Hi all, I have finished a draft of proposal on Parallel Pegasos SVM solover. I need some comments. If any one interested in this proposal, contact me please. By the way, is it a good idea to attach this proposal in this mail session. Cheers, Zhendong On Thu, Dec 17, 2009 at 1:16 AM, Ted Dunnin

I have half of an SGD logistic regression written. There might be some code to share. I will put up a patch shortly so that others can follow progress. There is also a group of four (very quiet) developers who are working on something related to SVM. I will be meeting with them tomorrow morning

This is a timely message, since I'm currently presuming to close some old Mahout issues at the moment and it raises a related concern. There's lots of old JIRA issues of the form: 1) somebody submits a patch implementing part of something 2) some comments happen, maybe 3) nothing happens for a yea

True, I am still wondering about whether it is valuable to implement a parallel SVM on hadoop? I really wanna join in mike's group. Just like Olivier concerned, some linear version of SVM solvers can handle large-scale data sets ( several seconds for 100K-level samples). It's true that the linear

I agree that we should have some serious SVM support. I also just closed out a very old issue on this topic! I am all for it if you can submit some code, that you are basically willing to support. A Hadoop-based implementation is ideal, but anything consistent is good in my book. Post a patch if
