In particular the Logistic Regression and HMM stuff should be well suitable even for smaller data sets. You can find the JavaDoc for each there: <https://builds.apache.org//job/Mahout- Quality/javadoc/org/apache/mahout/classifier/sgd/package-summary.html > and here: <https://builds.apache.org//job/Mahout- Quality/javadoc/org/apache/mahout/classifier/sequencelearning/hmm/package- summary.html> Both have versions that can run standalone on a single box - they may come with Hadoop as a dependency, mainly for serializing vectors and matrices to disk but not for computation distribution.
