Example text

The table of confusion has two rows and two columns that report about true positive, true negative, false positive, and false negative. Therefore, accuracy = (a+d)/(a+b+c+d). Therefore, precision = a/(a+b). Therefore, negative predictive value = d/(c+d). Therefore, sensitivity = a/(a+c). Therefore, specificity =d /(b+d). ((Positive predictive value (precision) * sensitivity (recall))/(Positive predictive value (precision) +sensitivity (recall))). The closer the value is to 1, the greater is your classifier.

Mahout provides full API support to develop your own user-based or item-based recommendation engine. For example, Mahout can be used to build a document classifier or an e-mail classifier. The main difference between clustering and classification is that in classification, we know the end class name. For clustering, Mahout has already implemented some of the most popular algorithms in this area, such as k-means, fuzzy k-means, canopy, and so on. Singular value decomposition and Lanczos are examples of the algorithms that Mahout provides.
