I’ve been attempting to run a SparkR translation of a similar Scala job that identifies words from a corpus not existing in a newline delimited dictionary. The R code is:
dict <- SparkR:::textFile(sc, src1) corpus <- SparkR:::textFile(sc, src2) words <- distinct(SparkR:::flatMap(corpus, function(line) { gsub(“[[:punct:]]”, “”, tolower(strsplit(line, “ |,|-“)[[1]]))})) found <- subtract(words, dict) (where src1, src2 are locations on HDFS) Then attempting something like take(found, 10) or saveAsTextFile(found, dest) should realize the collection, but that stage of the DAG hangs in Scheduler Delay during the collectPartitions phase. Synonymous Scala code however, val corpus = sc.textFile(src1).flatMap(_.split(“ |,|-“)) val dict = sc.textFile(src2) val words = corpus.map(word => word.filter(Character.isLetter(_))).disctinct() val found = words.subtract(dict) performs as expected. Any thoughts? Thanks, Alek Eskilson CONFIDENTIALITY NOTICE This message and any included attachments are from Cerner Corporation and are intended only for the addressee.
