> In response to the wish from MAHOUT-362 and the latest discussion on the
> mailing list started by Kris Jack about computing a document similarity
> matrix, I tried to generalize the approach we're already using to compute the
> item-item-similarities for collaborative filtering.
> The job in the patch computes the pairwise similarity of the rows of a matrix
> in a distributed manner, is uses a SequenceFile<IntWritable,VectorWritable>
> as input and outputs such a file too. Custom similarity implementations can
> be supplied, I've already implemented tanimoto and cosine for demo and
> testing purposes. The algorithm is based on the one presented here:
> http://www.umiacs.umd.edu/~jimmylin/publications/Elsayed_etal_ACL2008_short.pdf
> I'd be glad if someone could verify the applicability of this approach by
> running it with a reasonably large input, I'm also worried that it might
> buffer to much data in certain steps.
> If you decide to include it in mahout, some more efforts and decisions (like
> more tests, more similarity measures, integration with DistributedRowMatrix)
> would need to be made, I guess.
