  1. Introducing Apache Mahout Scalable Machine Learning for All! Grant Ingersoll

  2. Agenda What is Machine Learning? Definitions Types Applications Mahout What? Why? How? Who?

  3. What is Machine Learning? NOT! Or? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Hal-9000.jpg http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/4/49/Terminator.jpg

  4. How about? Google News

  5. Or? Amazon.com

  6. Definition “Machine Learning is programming computers to optimize a performance criterion using example data or past experience” Intro. To Machine Learning by E. Alpaydin Subset of Artificial Intelligence Many other fields: comp sci., biology, math, psychology, etc.

  7. Characterizations Lots of Data Identifiable Features in that Data Too big/costly for people to handle People still can help

  8. Types Supervised Using labeled training data, create function that predicts output of unseen inputs Unsupervised Using unlabeled data, create function that predicts output Semi-Supervised Uses labeled and unlabeled data

  9. Classification/Categorization Spam Filtering Named Entity Recognition Phrase Identification Sentiment Analysis Classification into a Taxonomy

  10. Clustering Find Natural Groupings Documents Search Results People Genetic traits in groups Many, many more uses

  11. Collaborative Filtering Recommend people and products User-User User likes X, you might too Item-Item People who bought X also bought Y

  12. Info. Retrieval Learning Ranking Functions Learning Spelling Corrections User Click Analysis and Tracking

  13. Other Image Analysis Robotics Games Higher level natural language processing Many, many others

  14. What is Apache Mahout? A Mahout is an elephant trainer/driver/keeper, hence… (and other distributed techniques) + Machine Learning =

  15. What? Hadoop brings: Map/Reduce API HDFS In other words, scalability and fault-tolerance Thus, Mahout’s Goal is: Scalable Machine Learning with Apache License

  16. Why Mahout? Many Open Source ML libraries either: Lack Community Lack Documentation and Examples Lack Scalability Lack the Apache License ;-) Or are research-oriented Personal: Learn more ML Intelligent Apps are the Present and Future See the Hadoop talks tomorrow and Friday! Goal: Overcome gaps the Apache Way!

  17. Current Status Close to Initial release Focused on examples, docs, bug fixes What’s in it: Simple Matrix/Vector library Taste Collaborative Filtering Clustering Canopy/K-Means/Fuzzy K-Means/Mean-shift Classifiers Naïve Bayes Complementary NB Evolutionary Integration with Watchmaker for fitness function

  18. How? Examples Taste Clustering Classification Evolutionary

  19. Taste: Movie Recommendations Given ratings by users of movies, recommend other movies http://lucene.apache.org/mahout/taste.html#demo

  20. Clustering: Synthetic Control Data http://archive.ics.uci.edu/ml/datasets/Synthetic+Control+Chart+Time+Series Each clustering impl. has an example Job for running in <MAHOUT_HOME>/examples o.a.mahout.clustering.syntheticcontrol.* Outputs clusters…

  21. Classification: NB and CNB Examples 20 Newsgroups http://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/MAHOUT/TwentyNewsgroups Wikipedia http://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/MAHOUT/WikipediaBayesExample

  22. Evolutionary Traveling Salesman http://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/MAHOUT/Traveling+Salesman Class Discovery http://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/MAHOUT/Class+Discovery

  23. What’s Next? Release 0.1! Shared Amazon Images (others?) More Examples Winnow/Perceptron (MAHOUT-85) Hbase and HAMA support Normalize I/O format for data Solr Integration (SOLR-769) Other Algorithms: SVM, Linear Regression, etc.

  24. When, Where, Who When? Now! Mahout is growing Who? You! We want Java programmers who: Are comfortable with math Like to work on large, hard problems Where? http://lucene.apache.org/mahout http://cwiki.apache.org/MAHOUT mahout-{user|dev}@lucene.apache.org
