Data-Intensive Text Processing with MapReduce by Jimmy Lin
Our world is being revolutionized by data-driven methods: access to large amounts of data has generated new insights and opened exciting new opportunities in commerce, science, and computing applications. Processing the enormous quantities of data necessary for these advances requires large clusters, making distributed computing paradigms more crucial than ever. MapReduce is a programming model for expressing distributed computations on massive datasets and an execution framework for large-scale data processing on clusters of commodity servers. The programming model provides an easy-to-understand abstraction for designing scalable algorithms, while the execution framework transparently handles many system-level details, ranging from scheduling to synchronization to fault tolerance. This book focuses on MapReduce algorithm design, with an emphasis on text processing algorithms common in natural language processing, information retrieval, and machine learning. We introduce the notion of MapReduce design patterns, which represent general reusable solutions to commonly occurring problems across a variety of problem domains. This book not only intends to help the reader think in MapReduce, but also discusses limitations of the programming model as well. Table of Contents: Introduction / MapReduce Basics / MapReduce Algorithm Design / Inverted Indexing for Text Retrieval / Graph Algorithms / EM Algorithms for Text Processing / Closing Remarks
Chris Dyer has spent most of his life around horses. Described by one of his friends as the man that doesn't fit in he is never afraid to voice an opinion regardless of the consequences. Disparaging of bureaucracy and unpredictable - the probable cause of his not fitting in! He has without credit worked on many horses from unknown ponies to well-known racehorses without bothering to attention seek. He has trained Arabian racehorses and pre trained thoroughbreds. His knowledge and occasionally his opinions are evident as he weaves his tale around the book's characters. He has now taken the step into fantasy, a genre that he enjoys reading and has gained even more pleasure in writing. A man of extremes, Chris is either irritatingly happy or manically depressed (though more often than not the former). To describe Chris is almost impossible- he is a bit like pulling a Christmas Cracker... you never quite know what you will find on the inside!
