[HIVEMALL-44][SAPRK] Implement a prototype of Join with TopK for
DataFrame/Spark
## What changes were proposed in this pull request?
This pr implemented a prototype for Top-K joins. In Hivemall, `each_top_k`
is useful for practical use cases. On the other hand, there are some cases we
need to join tables then compute Top-K entries.You know we can compute this
query by using regular joins + `each_top_k`. However, we have space to improve
this query more; that is, we compute Top-K entries while processing joins. This
optimization avoids a substantial amount of I/O for joins.
An example query is as follows;
```
val inputDf = Seq(
("user1", 1, 0.3, 0.5),
("user2", 2, 0.1, 0.1),
("user3", 3, 0.8, 0.0),
("user4", 1, 0.9, 0.9),
("user5", 3, 0.7, 0.2),
("user6", 1, 0.5, 0.4),
("user7", 2, 0.6, 0.8)
).toDF("userId", "group", "x", "y")
val masterDf = Seq(
(1, "pos1-1", 0.5, 0.1),
(1, "pos1-2", 0.0, 0.0),
(1, "pos1-3", 0.3, 0.3),
(2, "pos2-3", 0.1, 0.3),
(2, "pos2-3", 0.8, 0.8),
(3, "pos3-1", 0.1, 0.7),
(3, "pos3-1", 0.7, 0.1),
(3, "pos3-1", 0.9, 0.0),
(3, "pos3-1", 0.1, 0.3)
).toDF("group", "position", "x", "y")
// Compute top-1 rows for each group
val distance = sqrt(
pow(inputDf("x") - masterDf("x"), lit(2.0)) +
pow(inputDf("y") - masterDf("y"), lit(2.0))
)
val top1Df = inputDf.join_top_k(
lit(1), masterDf, inputDf("group") === masterDf("group"),
distance.as("score")
)
```
A quick benchmark is as follows;
