Hi there,
I'm using Hadoop-core 0.20.3 and I want to use mahout ALS algorithm.
My purpose is to run the ALS model and extract the decomposed matrices for
further usage in my application (I want to create 2 different csv files:
[UserId, latentFeatureId, Value] and [ItemId, latentFeatureId, Value]).
I found that in Mahout0.6\7 I have the ALSUtils class who can help me extract
this info.
However when I just try to execute a simple movielens example by executing the
"ParallelALS..." job I get the error below. I found it strange cause when
executing the exact same job on mahout 0.5 it works fine. Any thoughts? What
differences exist between the version (and relevant to ALS) which can cause it?
In addition, if I will use Mahout 0.5 eventually, can u advise me how can I
extract the decomposed matrices data so I could build my csv's?
Thanks,
Oren
