Machine Learning Part 6

In this this blog we will see -

  • Spark Graph Frames
  • Use of Graph Frames in Machine Learning to execute algorithms like - Page Rank
A graph is made up of vertices and edges that connect them.
  • 1.      Vertices are Objects
  • 2.      Edges are relationships

A regular graph is a graph where each vertex has the same number of edges.
A directed graph is a graph where the edges have a direction associated with them.
Example –
  • 1.      Facebook friends – A is friend of B, and so is B friend of A.
  • 2.      Instagram followers- A, B, C are followers of D. But, D may not be follower of either A, B, or C
  • 3.      Websites – Every page is a node and every linking page is an edge. Page rank Algorithm measures the importance of a page by number of links to a page and number of links to each linking page.
  • 4.      Recommendation Engines - Recommendation algorithms can use graphs where the nodes are the users and products, and their respective attributes and the edges are the ratings or purchases of the products by users. Graph algorithms can calculate weights for how similar users rated or purchased similar products.
  • 5.      Fraud - Graphs are useful for fraud detection algorithms in banking, healthcare, and network security. Example – Connection between Doctor, patient and pharmacy


We will explore the same flight dataset, as used in @http://techdevins.blogspot.com/2019/12/machine-learning-part-2.html with Graph Frames


Sparks GrpahX api is an implementation of Google's Pregel which was a paper published in 2010 - http://www.dcs.bbk.ac.uk/~dell/teaching/cc/paper/sigmod10/p135-malewicz.pdf

Its an iterative processing model, GraphFrames aggregateMessages, sends messages between vertices and aggregates message values from the neighboring edges and vertices of each vertex.



In the example, we see how to use aggregated messages.

Spark Error - missing part 0 of the schema, 2 parts are expected

 Exception -  Caused by: org.apache.spark.sql.AnalysisException : Could not read schema from the hive metastore because it is corrupted. (missing part 0 of the schema, 2 parts are expected).; Analysis -  ·          Check for table definition. In TBLProperties, you might find something like this – > spark.sql.sources.schema.numPartCols > 'spark.sql.sources.schema.numParts' 'spark.sql.sources.schema.part.0' > 'spark.sql.sources.schema.part.1' 'spark.sql.sources.schema.part.2' > 'spark.sql.sources.schema.partCol.0' > 'spark.sql.sources.schema.partCol.1' That’s what error seems to say that part1 is defined but part0 is missing.  Solution -  Drop & re-create table. If Table was partitioned  then all partitions  would have been removed. So do either of below -  ·          Msck repair table <db_name>.<table_name> ·    ...




Spark MongoDB Connector Not leading to correct count or data while reading

  We are using Scala 2.11 , Spark 2.4 and Spark MongoDB Connector 2.4.4 Use Case 1 - We wanted to read a Shareded Mongo Collection and copy its data to another Mongo Collection. We noticed that after Spark Job successful completion. Output MongoDB did not had many records. Use Case 2 -  We read a MongoDB collection and doing count on dataframe lead to different count on each execution. Analysis,  We realized that MongoDB Spark Connector is missing data on bulk read as a dataframe. We tried various partitioner, listed on page -  https://www.mongodb.com/docs/spark-connector/v2.4/configuration/  But, none of them worked for us. Finally, we tried  MongoShardedPartitioner  this lead to constant count on each execution. But, it was greater than the actual count of records on the collection. This seems to be limitation with MongoDB Spark Connector. But,  MongoShardedPartitioner  seemed closest possible solution to this kind of situation. But, it per...




Read from a hive table and write back to it using spark sql

In context to Spark 2.2 - if we read from an hive table and write to same, we get following exception- scala > dy . write . mode ( "overwrite" ). insertInto ( "incremental.test2" ) org . apache . spark . sql . AnalysisException : Cannot insert overwrite into table that is also being read from .; org . apache . spark . sql . AnalysisException : Cannot insert overwrite into table that is also being read from .; 1. This error means that our process is reading from same table and writing to same table. 2. Normally, this should work as process writes to directory .hiveStaging... 3. This error occurs in case of saveAsTable method, as it overwrites entire table instead of individual partitions. 4. This error should not occur with insertInto method, as it overwrites partitions not the table. 5. A reason why this happening is because Hive table has following Spark TBLProperties in its definition. This problem will solve for insertInto met...
