Abstract

Hadoop framework is one of the reliable, scalable framework for the big data analytics. In this paper we investigate the Hadoop framework for distributed data mining to reduce the computational cost for the exponentially growing scientific data. We use the RIPPER (Repeated Incremental Pruning for Error Reduction) algorithm [5] to develop a rule based classifier. We propose a parallel implementation of RIPPER based on the Hadoop MapReduce framework. The data is horizontally partitioned so that each node operates on a portion of the dataset and finally the results are aggregated to develop the classifier. We tested our algorithm on two large datasets and results showed that we can achieve a speed up of as high as 3.7 on 4 nodes.
