(was: Hey guys,
Sorry to crash the party. I don't think small clusters are actually a problem
since you're using a fixed sample size instead of a sampling rate. So for small
clusters whose sizes are comparable to the batchSize, you'd have a sampling
rate ~1.0, which means the entire cluster is picked up in the sample.
Alternatively, you can look into congressional sampling:
http://citeseerx.ist.psu.edu/viewdoc/download?doi=10.1.1.100.1057&rep=rep1&type=pdf,
where there's both a fixed size portion and a portion that's proportional to
the cluster size in each sample.)
> Add KMeans MiniBatch clustering algorithm to MLlib
> --------------------------------------------------

> Key: SPARK-2308
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-2308
> Project: Spark
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: MLlib
> Reporter: RJ Nowling
> Priority: Minor
>
> Mini-batch is a version of KMeans that uses a randomly-sampled subset of the
> data points in each iteration instead of the full set of data points,
> improving performance (and in some cases, accuracy). The mini-batch version
> is compatible with the KMeans|| initialization algorithm currently
> implemented in MLlib.
> I suggest adding KMeans Mini-batch as an alternative.
> I'd like this to be assigned to me.
