The classification algorithms of Mahout are based on the idea of classifying items that have to be represented as multidimensional vectors and as a result are not bound to be used for just one domain. Put more simply: First think of what kinds of predictions you want to make. Then think of features that contain information on which prediction is more likely. Code these features as vectors and continue from there. A really nice explanation of this concept is explained in the Mahout in Action book. You can also take a quick look at the following slides for a general outline: http://www.user.tu-berlin.de/konrad.rieck/pubs.html
