Performance evaluation of MapReduce using full virtualisation on a departmental cloud

Horacio González-Vélez, Maryam Kontagora (2011)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

Similarity:

This work analyses the performance of Hadoop, an implementation of the MapReduce programming model for distributed parallel computing, executing on a virtualisation environment comprised of 1 + 16 nodes running the VMWare workstation software. A set of experiments using the standard Hadoop benchmarks has been designed in order to determine whether or not significant reductions in the execution time of computations are experienced when using Hadoop on this virtualisation platform on a...

Featureless pattern classification

Robert P. W. Duin, Dick de Ridder, David M. J. Tax (1998)

Kybernetika

Similarity:

In this paper the possibilities are discussed for training statistical pattern recognizers based on a distance representation of the objects instead of a feature representation. Distances or similarities are used between the unknown objects to be classified with a selected subset of the training objects (the support objects). These distances are combined into linear or nonlinear classifiers. In this approach the feature definition problem is replaced by finding good similarity measures....

Dynamic estimation of evidence discounting rates based on information credibility

M. C. Florea, A.-L. Jousselme, É. Bossé (2010)

RAIRO - Operations Research

Similarity:

Information quality is crucial to any information fusion system as combining unreliable or partially credible pieces of information may lead to erroneous results. In this paper, Dempster-Shafer theory of evidence is being used as a framework for representing and combining uncertain pieces of information. We propose a method of dynamic estimation of evidence discounting rates based on the credibility of pieces of information. The credibility of a piece of information ( ...

A Super-Dimension Approach in ROLAP Environments

Naydenova, Ina (2011)

Serdica Journal of Computing

Similarity:

Often the designer of ROLAP applications follows up with the question “can I create a little joiner table with just the two dimension keys and then connect that table to the fact table?” In a classic dimensional model there are two options - (a) both dimensions are modeled independently or (b) two dimensions are combined into a super-dimension with a single key. The second approach is not widely used in ROLAP environments but it is an important sparsity handling method in MOLAP systems....
