Deneche A. Hakim commented on MAHOUT-56: ---------------------------------------- The whole point of the CDGA example is to show how to use Mahout to run a Genetic Algorithm on a very large dataset, cause this is what Map-Reduce is about : large and distributed data. Now, it wont harm my program to be able to work with in-memory datasets, and I'll be more than happy to implement (a) as soon as there is a "stable" solution for (b) and (c). I have one question about in-memory datasets : how to pass them to the mappers ? we can't use the job input if the dataset is in-memory ? so I assume it is passed as a job parameter, is it ? > Watchmaker Integration > ---------------------- > > Key: MAHOUT-56 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAHOUT-56 > Project: Mahout > Issue Type: Task > Components: Genetic Algorithms > Reporter: Deneche A.
