Hi Xiaobo, You could check the chapter 13-16 from <Mahout In Action>, it provided all the parameters the command line tool of 'mahout trainlogistic' could use. But the trainlogistic command is still only a simple example. If you wanted to use that in a production environment, you still have to write the feature encode code by yourself. The code you need to write is pretty easy, just parse the input and put that in a Vector and let the LR train the data.
