Janardhan: I believe this is the R4ML repo: https://github.com/SparkTC/r4ml . Arvind: please correct me if I am wrong.
Overall, having a R interface for SystemML is an awesome idea. Since I am not an R4ML expert, may be R4ML committers can comment on how they envision "two code streams to work together". Also, comparing the features of R4ML with that of our Python APIs will be useful as it might make a stronger case for R4ML. As an FYI, here are different ways Python users can use SystemML: - Using MLContext to invoke DML script ( http://apache.github.io/systemml/beginners-guide-python#invoking-dmlpydml-scripts-using-mlcontext and http://apache.github.io/systemml/spark-mlcontext-programming-guide.html) - Python algorithms wrappers ( http://apache.github.io/systemml/beginners-guide-python#invoke-systemmls-algorithms ) - (not important for R4ML discussion): Python DSL ( http://apache.github.io/systemml/beginners-guide-python#matrix-operations) Thanks, Niketan Pansare IBM Almaden Research Center E-mail: npansar At us.ibm.com http://researcher.watson.ibm.com/researcher/view.php?person=us-npansar From: Janardhan <j...@protonmail.com> To: Arvind Surve <ac...@yahoo.com.INVALID>, "dev@systemml.apache.org" <dev@systemml.apache.org> Date: 09/21/2017 04:44 AM Subject: Re: [DISCUSS] R-Interface to SystemML Hi Arvind, This is a great idea. One question: the R4ML generates any plan like the SystemML with `DML` Or with providing some interface we leverage this feature ?. Community effort in the sense of collaborative algorithm implementation.(?) Is this the Spark-R repo ( https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__github.com_rstudio_sparklyr&d=DwIGaQ&c=jf_iaSHvJObTbx-siA1ZOg&r=HzVC6v79boGYQrpc383_Kao_6a6SaOkZrfiSrYZVby0&m=uxG7P-4VuICwg6yatnAEX5JBdZ-PSwyvQzq5gwX1GL0&s=6VRs_J7zXj9jZEavEP8iNvVfISAjDJeM8wFL2sBnb0g&e= ) ?
