Apache Mahout
open-in-new
<p>Apache Mahout is a project of the <a href="/facts/Apache_Software_Foundation/Xl9Tt9lE">Apache Software Foundation</a> to produce <a href="/facts/Free_software/IaoVtJXn">free</a> implementations of <a href="/facts/Distributed_computing/o5nyhqTF">distributed</a> or otherwise <a href="/facts/Scalability/jh7JomPa">scalable</a> <a href="/facts/Machine_learning/e0w0XJTu">machine learning</a> algorithms focused primarily on <a href="/facts/Linear_algebra/8VaB4VWk">linear algebra</a>. In the past, many of the implementations use the <a href="/facts/Apache_Hadoop/oUS1G2R7">Apache Hadoop</a> platform, however today it is primarily focused on <a href="/facts/Apache_Spark/rHQVfSBc">Apache Spark</a>. Mahout also provides Java/Scala libraries for common math operations (focused on linear algebra and statistics) and primitive Java collections. Mahout is a work in progress; a number of algorithms have been implemented. </p>
