Data Algorithms: Recipes for Scaling Up with Hadoop and Spark

by Mahmoud Parsian

If you are ready to dive into the MapReduce framework for processing large datasets, this practical book takes you step by step through the algorithms and tools you need to build distributed MapReduce applications with Apache Hadoop or Apache Spark. Each chapter provides a recipe for solving a massive computational problem, such as building a recommendation system. You’ll learn how to implement the appropriate MapReduce solution with code that you can use in your projects. Dr. Mahmoud Parsian covers basic design patterns, optimization techniques, and data mining and machine learning solutions for problems in bioinformatics, genomics, statistics, and social network analysis. This book also includes an overview of MapReduce, Hadoop, and Spark. Topics

[Xianshun Chen · Rating 4 out of 5]

Very nice book which teaches how to implement mechine learning and data mining techniques such as NBC, recommender, clustering, etc. Implemented in java, the book provides codes in both hadoop mapreduce and apache spark in simple-to-understand and clean manner. Have re-coded most of the algorithms in the book except for chapters dealing with some of the bio stuff which i am not particularly interested at the moment.
