Mahout rowSimilarity

问题:

I am trying to compute row similarity between wikipedia documents. I have the tf-idf vectors in format Key class: class org.apache.hadoop.io.Text Value Class: class org.apache.mahout.math.VectorWritable. I am following the quick tour of text analysis from here: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/MAHOUT/Quick+tour+of+text+analysis+using+the+Mahout+command+line

I created a mahout matrix as follows:

mahout rowid \
   -i wikipedia-vectors/tfidf-vectors/part-r-00000
   -o wikipedia-matrix

I got the the number generated rows and columns:

vectors.RowIdJob: Wrote out matrix with 4587604 rows and 14121544 columns to wikipedia-matrix/matrix

The matrix is of format Key class: class org.apache.hadoop.io.IntWritable Value Class: class org.apache.mahout.math.VectorWritable

I also have a docIndex document with the following format: Key class: class org.apache.hadoop.io.IntWritable Value Class: class org.apache.hadoop.io.Text

Then when I run the rowsimilarity job

mahout rowsimilarity 
   -i wikipedia-matrix/matrix 
   -o wikipedia-similarity 
   -r 4587604
   --similarityClassname SIMILARITY_COSINE
   -m 50
   -ess

I am getting the following error:

13/08/25 15:18:18 INFO mapred.JobClient: Task Id : attempt_201308161435_0364_m_000001_1, Status : FAILED

    at org.apache.hadoop.mapred.Child.main(Child.java:260)

Could someone please help me with the error? I am not sure from where is this org.apache.hadoop.io.Text when the input matrix is of format Key class: class org.apache.hadoop.io.IntWritable Value Class: class org.apache.mahout.math.VectorWritable

Thank you very much.

Best, Dragan

I solved it using the following command:

hadoop jar mahout-examples-0.9-SNAPSHOT.jar 
org.apache.mahout.math.hadoop.similarity.cooccurrence.RowSimilarityJob 
-i /user/dmilchev/wikipedia-matrix/matrix 
-o /user/dmilchev/wikipedia-similarity 
-r 4587604 --similarityClassname SIMILARITY_COSINE -m 50 -ess 

and I did not get any error.
