h2. Twenty Newsgroups Classification Example

h2. Prerequisites

* Mahout has been downloaded ([instructions here|http://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/MAHOUT/index#index-Installation%2FSetup])
* Maven is available
* Your environment has the following variables:
| {{HADOOP_HOME}} | Environment variables refers to where Hadoop lives |
| {{MAHOUT_HOME}} | Environment variables refers to where Mahout lives |

h2. Setting up Mahout

After downloading the distribution, unzip/untar it into the directory of your choice and do:

# In the trunk directory, compile everything and create the Hadoop job:
{noformat}mvn install{noformat}

h3. For Mahout 0.1:

{HTMLcomment} # If you've run this before, you may want to rm -rf the work and temp directories {HTMLcomment}

In {{$MAHOOT_HOME/examples}}:
{noformat}
$ cd examples
$ ant -f build-deprecated.xml get-files
$ mkdir lib
$ mvn dependency:copy-dependencies -DoutputDirectory=lib
$ ant -f build-deprecated.xml extract-20news-18828 -Ddest=target
$ mv 20news-18828-collapse 20news-input
{noformat}

NOTE: After you have done this, skip to the hadoop section to run the 20newsgroups example in mahout 0.1 release

h3. For Mahout 0.2+:

# Change into {{$MAHOOT_HOME/examples}} directory
{noformat}$ cd examples{noformat}
# Download {{20news-18828.tar.gz}} from the [20newsgroups dataset|http://people.csail.mit.edu/jrennie/20Newsgroups/]
# Extract dataset:
{noformat}$ tar zxf 20news-18828.tar.gz{noformat}
# Generate input dataset:
{noformat}
$ mkdir 20news-input
$ mvn -e exec:java \
      -Dexec.mainClass=org.apache.mahout.classifier.bayes.PrepareTwentyNewsgroups \
      -Dexec.args="-p 20news-18828 \
                   -o 20news-input \
                   -a org.apache.lucene.analysis.standard.StandardAnalyzer \
                   -c UTF-8"
{noformat}

h2. Running the example without hadoop

This assumes you're running Mahout 0.2+:

# Train the classifier:
{noformat}
$ mvn -e exec:java \
      -Dexec.mainClass=org.apache.mahout.classifier.bayes.TrainClassifier \
      -Dexec.args="-i 20news-input \
                   -o 20news-model \
                   -type cbayes \
                   -ng 1 \
                   -source hdfs"
{noformat}
# Test over input:
{noformat}
$ mvn -e exec:java \
      -Dexec.mainClass=org.apache.mahout.classifier.bayes.TestClassifier \
      -Dexec.args="-m 20news-model \
                   -d 20news-input \
                   -type cbayes \
                   -ng 1 \
                   -source hdfs \
                   -method sequential"
{noformat}

h2. Running 20newsgroups example over hadoop cluster

h3. Set Up Hadoop Cluster
# Edit {{hadoop-site.xml}}; add in local settings per [Hadoop quickstart|http://hadoop.apache.org/core/docs/current/quickstart.html]
{noformat}
emacs $HADOOP_HOME/conf/hadoop-site.xml
{noformat}
# Format the HDFS
{noformat}
$ $HADOOP_HOME/bin/hadoop namenode -format
{noformat}
# Start Hadoop
{noformat}
$ $HADOOP_HOME/bin/start-all.sh
{noformat}
# Copy extracted text to HDFS
{noformat}
$ $HADOOP_HOME/bin/hadoop dfs -put $MAHOUT_HOME/examples/20news-input 20news-input
{noformat}

h3. Train Bayes Classifier Using Tri-grams

The following will run 4 map reduce jobs on Hadoop to train the classifier and will take a while on a single node machine.

{noformat}
$HADOOP_HOME/bin/hadoop \
    jar \
    $MAHOUT_HOME/examples/target/mahout-examples-0.1.job \
    org.apache.mahout.classifier.bayes.TrainClassifier \
    -i 20news-input \
    -o newsmodel \
    -ng 3 \
    -type bayes
    -source hdfs
{noformat}

You can monitor the status of these jobs by opening a web browser on your Job Tracker node: [http://localhost:50030/jobtracker.jsp]

Test classifier over the input folder
{noformat}
$HADOOP_HOME/bin/hadoop \
    jar \
    $MAHOUT_HOME/examples/target/mahout-examples-0.1.job \
    org.apache.mahout.classifier.bayes.TestClassifier \
    -p newsmodel \
    -t work/20news-input \
    -ng 3 \
    -type bayes
{noformat}

Output might look like:
