[jira] [Created] (MAHOUT-997) Make splitData smart enough to not consider a CSV header to be part of the data

Make splitData smart enough to not consider a CSV header to be part of the data
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: MAHOUT-997
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAHOUT-997
             Project: Mahout
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Integration
    Affects Versions: 0.6
         Environment: OS X
            Reporter: Andrew Harbick
            Priority: Minor
             Fix For: 0.6


If you do something like:

MAHOUT_LOCAL=1 $MAHOUT_HOME/bin/mahout splitDataset  --input all.csv --output split --trainingPercentage 0.9 --probePercentage 0.1

The header row from your CSV will end up with 90% chance in your training data and 10% chance in your evaluation data.  To use a tool like trainlogistic or runlogistic the header file is needed in both.

Perhaps add an argument to splitData to duplicate the header line?

[jira] [Commented] (MAHOUT-997) Make splitData smart enough to not consider a CSV header to be part of the data

Lance Norskog commented on MAHOUT-997:
--------------------------------------

This is a general problem, not a splitData problem. Suggest you prestage your Mahout input files from your real files with script that ignores the first line. {{sed 2,\$p}} will do the trick. Most input data requires some kind of cleanup.
