Kenneth Knowles created BEAM-1439:
-------------------------------------
Summary: Beam Example(s) exploring public document datasets
Key: BEAM-1439
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BEAM-1439
Project: Beam
Issue Type: Wish
Components: examples-java
Reporter: Kenneth Knowles
Assignee: Kenneth Knowles
Priority: Minor
In Beam, we have examples illustrating counting the occurrences of words and
performing a basic TF-IDF analysis on the works of Shakespeare (or whatever you
point it at). It would be even cooler to do these analyses, and more, on a much
larger data set that is really the subject of current investigations.
In chatting with professors at the University of Washington, I've learned that
scholars of many fields would really like to explore new and highly customized
ways of processing the growing body of publicly-available scholarly documents,
such as PubMed Central. Queries like "show me documents where chemical
compounds X and Y were both used in the 'method' section"
So I propose a Google Summer of Code project wherein a student writes some
large-scale Beam pipelines to perform analyses such as term frequency, bigram
frequency, etc.
Skills required:
- Java or Python
- (nice to have) Working through the Beam getting started materials
