             Summary: Make random forest classifier meta-data file human 
readable
                 Key: MAHOUT-1163
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAHOUT-1163
             Project: Mahout
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Classification
    Affects Versions: 0.7
            Reporter: Marty Kube
             Fix For: 0.8


The RF classifier has as a Describe utility which figures out a description of 
a data set (how many attributes, types, and enumerated values, etc...) and 
writes this meta-data to file for later use during training or testing.

The file format is binary.  That means the only way to generate it is with the 
Describe utility and it is hard to modify.  If the format was human readable it 
is then possible to modify/generate the meta-data by hand.

This will also make it easier to support standard formats such as ARFF.
