Uses of mahout:

  • It uses the Apache Hadoop library to allow Mahout to scale efficiently in the cloud.
  • Mahout focus on real-world, practical use cases as opposed to bleeding-edge research or unproven techniques and offers quality documentation.
  • It used to produce scalable machine learning algorithm then to implements its machine learning techniques that are:
    1. Recommendation
    2. Clustering
    3. Classification

Applications of Mahout:

  • Adobe, Facebook, LinkedIn, Foursquare, Twitter, and Yahoo use Mahout internally.
  • Foursquare helps you to find out the place, food and entertainment available in a particular area. It uses the recommender engine of Mahout.
  • Twitter may use Mahout for user interest modelling.
  • Yahoo uses Mahout for pattern mining.

Apache mahout:

  • An Apache Software Foundation project to create free implementations of distributed or else scalable machine learning algorithms under the Apache Software license that focused in the areas of collaborative filtering, classification and clustering.
  • Several implementations utilize the Apache Hadoop platform.
What is apache mahout
  • It gives Java libraries for general maths operations (like linear algebra framework, statistics and data scientists) and primal Java collections.
  • Mahout is a work in advancement; much number of implemented algorithms has developed rapidly, however various algorithms are still missing.
  • Apache Mahout contains three major features:
    • It gives simple and extensible programming environment then framework for building versatile algorithms.
    • A wide variety of premade algorithms for Scala + Apache Spark, Apache Flink, H2O.
    • Samsara, a vector math experimentation environment with R-like syntax which works at scale.
