[jira] [Updated] (MAHOUT-1833) Enhance svec function to accept cardinality as parameter

>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAHOUT-1833
>             Project: Mahout
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>    Affects Versions: 0.12.0
>         Environment: Mahout Spark Shell 0.12.0,
> Spark 1.6.0 Cluster on Hadoop Yarn 2.7.1, 
> Centos7 64bit
>            Reporter: Edmond Luo

> It will be nice to enhance the existing svec function like below to org.apache.mahout.math.scalabindings
> {code}
> /**
>  * create a sparse vector out of list of tuple2's with specific cardinality(size),
>  * throws IllegalArgumentException if cardinality is not bigger than required cardinality of sdata
>  * @param cardinality sdata
>  * @return
>  */
> def svec(cardinality: Int, sdata: TraversableOnce[(Int, AnyVal)]) = {
>   val required = if (sdata.nonEmpty) sdata.map(_._1).max + 1 else 0
>   if (cardinality < required) {
>     throw new IllegalArgumentException(s"Cardinality[%cardinality] must be bigger than required[%required]!")
>   }
>   val initialCapacity = sdata.size
>   val sv = new RandomAccessSparseVector(cardinality, initialCapacity)
>   sdata.foreach(t ⇒ sv.setQuick(t._1, t._2.asInstanceOf[Number].doubleValue()))
>   sv
> }
> {code}
> So user can specify the cardinality for the created sparse vector.
> This is very useful and convenient if user wants to create a DRM with many sparse vectors and the vectors are not with the same actual size(but with the same logical size, e.g. rows of a sparse matrix).
> Below code should demonstrate the case:
> {code}
> var cardinality = 20
> val rdd = sc.textFile("/some/file.txt").map(_.split(",")).map(line => (line(0).toInt, Array((line(1).toInt,1)))).reduceByKey((v1, v2) => v1 ++ v2).map(row => (row._1, svec(row._2,cardinality)))
> val drm = drmWrap(rdd.map(row => (row._1, row._2.asInstanceOf[Vector])))
> // All element wise opperation will fail for those DRM with not cardinality-consistent SparseVector
> val drm2 = drm + drm.t
> val drm3 = drm - drm.t
> val drm4 = drm * drm.t
> val drm5 = drm / drm.t
> {code}
> Notice that in the last map, the svec acceptted one more cardinality parameter, so the cardinality of those created SparseVector can be consistent.
