Description: A set of Java libraries for scalable machine learning.
Mahout's goal is to build scalable machine learning libraries.
With scalable we mean:
.
Scalable to reasonably large data sets. Our core algorithms for clustering,
classfication and batch based collaborative filtering are implemented on top of
Apache Hadoop using the map/reduce paradigm. However we do not restrict
contributions to Hadoop based implementations: Contributions that run on a
single node or on a non-Hadoop cluster are welcome as well. The core libraries
are highly optimized to allow for good performance also for non-distributed
algorithms.
Scalable to support your business case. Mahout is distributed under a
commercially friendly Apache Software license.
Scalable community. The goal of Mahout is to build a vibrant, responsive,
diverse community to facilitate discussions not only on the project itself but
also on potential use cases. Come to the mailing lists to find out more.
