Query about MatrixMultiplicationJob in Mahout

[Stuti Awasthi <st...@hcl.com>]

Hi All,
I am pretty new to Mahout and this is my first attempt . I wanted to tryout MatrixMultiplicationJob but facing some issues in Input format.
I noticed that MatrixMultiplicationJob takes input as <IntWritable,TupleWritable> and then perform the MR to produce matrix multiplication output in SequenceFileFormat<Intwritable, VectorWritable>.

So here I am at the first step to create the input file currently as TextInputFormat<LongWritable,Text> to SequenceFileOutputFormat <IntWritable,TupleWritable>. So that I can send this type of file as an input to MatrixMultiplicationJob

My Text input file is of format : Row = 2, Column = 3,
1
2
3
4
5
6
So I assume this will be picked as
1 2 3
4 5 6

This is the input file which I have created and not even sure if this is the correct way to send input to convert the TextInputFormat to SequenceFile format.

Please Suggest
