Summary statistics
We provide column summary statistics for RDD[Vector]
through the function colStats
available in Statistics
.
colStats()
returns an instance of
MultivariateStatisticalSummary
,
which contains the column-wise max, min, mean, variance, and number of nonzeros, as well as the
total count.

Correlations
Calculating the correlation between two series of data is a common operation in Statistics. In MLlib we provide the flexibility to calculate pairwise correlations among many series. The supported correlation methods are currently Pearson's and Spearman's correlation.
{% highlight scala %} import org.apache.spark.SparkContext import org.apache.spark.mllib.linalg._ import org.apache.spark.mllib.stat.Statistics
val sc: SparkContext = ...
val seriesX: RDD[Double] = ... // a series val seriesY: RDD[Double] = ... // must have the same number of partitions and cardinality as seriesX
// compute the correlation using Pearson's method. Enter "spearman" for Spearman's method. If a // method is not specified, Pearson's method will be used by default. val correlation: Double = Statistics.corr(seriesX, seriesY, "pearson")
val data: RDD[Vector] = ... // note that each Vector is a row and not a column
// calculate the correlation matrix using Pearson's method. Use "spearman" for Spearman's method. // If a method is not specified, Pearson's method will be used by default. val correlMatrix: Matrix = Statistics.corr(data, "pearson")
{% endhighlight %}
{% highlight java %} import org.apache.spark.api.java.JavaDoubleRDD; import org.apache.spark.api.java.JavaSparkContext; import org.apache.spark.mllib.linalg.*; import org.apache.spark.mllib.stat.Statistics;

// compute the correlation using Pearson's method. Enter "spearman" for Spearman's method. If a // method is not specified, Pearson's method will be used by default. Double correlation = Statistics.corr(seriesX.srdd(), seriesY.srdd(), "pearson");
JavaRDD data = ... // note that each Vector is a row and not a column
// calculate the correlation matrix using Pearson's method. Use "spearman" for Spearman's method. // If a method is not specified, Pearson's method will be used by default. Matrix correlMatrix = Statistics.corr(data.rdd(), "pearson");

Stratified sampling
Unlike the other statistics functions, which reside in MLlib, stratified sampling methods,
sampleByKey
and sampleByKeyExact
, can be performed on RDD's of key-value pairs. For stratified
sampling, the keys can be thought of as a label and the value as a specific attribute. For example
the key can be man or woman, or document ids, and the respective values can be the list of ages
of the people in the population or the list of words in the documents. The sampleByKey
method
will flip a coin to decide whether an observation will be sampled or not, therefore requires one
pass over the data, and provides an expected sample size. sampleByKeyExact
requires significant
more resources than the per-stratum simple random sampling used in sampleByKey
, but will provide
the exact sampling size with 99.99% confidence. sampleByKeyExact
is currently not supported in
python.
{% highlight scala %} import org.apache.spark.SparkContext import org.apache.spark.SparkContext._ import org.apache.spark.rdd.PairRDDFunctions
val sc: SparkContext = ...
val data = ... // an RDD[(K, V)] of any key value pairs val fractions: Map[K, Double] = ... // specify the exact fraction desired from each key
// Get an exact sample from each stratum val approxSample = data.sampleByKey(withReplacement = false, fractions) val exactSample = data.sampleByKeyExact(withReplacement = false, fractions)
{% endhighlight %}
{% highlight java %} import java.util.Map;
import org.apache.spark.api.java.JavaPairRDD; import org.apache.spark.api.java.JavaSparkContext;
JavaSparkContext jsc = ...
JavaPairRDD<K, V> data = ... // an RDD of any key value pairs Map<K, Object> fractions = ... // specify the exact fraction desired from each key
// Get an exact sample from each stratum JavaPairRDD<K, V> approxSample = data.sampleByKey(false, fractions); JavaPairRDD<K, V> exactSample = data.sampleByKeyExact(false, fractions);
{% endhighlight %}
Note: sampleByKeyExact()
is currently not supported in Python.
{% highlight python %}
sc = ... # SparkContext
data = ... # an RDD of any key value pairs fractions = ... # specify the exact fraction desired from each key as a dictionary
approxSample = data.sampleByKey(False, fractions);
{% endhighlight %}
Hypothesis testing
Hypothesis testing is a powerful tool in statistics to determine whether a result is statistically
significant, whether this result occurred by chance or not. MLlib currently supports Pearson's
chi-squared ( $\chi^2$) tests for goodness of fit and independence. The input data types determine
whether the goodness of fit or the independence test is conducted. The goodness of fit test requires
an input type of Vector
, whereas the independence test requires a Matrix
as input.
MLlib also supports the input type RDD[LabeledPoint]
to enable feature selection via chi-squared
independence tests.
{% highlight scala %} import org.apache.spark.SparkContext import org.apache.spark.mllib.linalg._ import org.apache.spark.mllib.regression.LabeledPoint import org.apache.spark.mllib.stat.Statistics._
val sc: SparkContext = ...
val vec: Vector = ... // a vector composed of the frequencies of events
// compute the goodness of fit. If a second vector to test against is not supplied as a parameter,
// the test runs against a uniform distribution.
val goodnessOfFitTestResult = Statistics.chiSqTest(vec)
println(goodnessOfFitTestResult) // summary of the test including the p-value, degrees of freedom,
// test statistic, the method used, and the null hypothesis.
val mat: Matrix = ... // a contingency matrix
// conduct Pearson's independence test on the input contingency matrix val independenceTestResult = Statistics.chiSqTest(mat) println(independenceTestResult) // summary of the test including the p-value, degrees of freedom...
val obs: RDD[LabeledPoint] = ... // (feature, label) pairs.
// The contingency table is constructed from the raw (feature, label) pairs and used to conduct // the independence test. Returns an array containing the ChiSquaredTestResult for every feature // against the label. val featureTestResults: Array[ChiSqTestResult] = Statistics.chiSqTest(obs) var i = 1 featureTestResults.foreach { result => println(s"Column $i:\n$result") i += 1 } // summary of the test

Random data generation
Random data generation is useful for randomized algorithms, prototyping, and performance testing. MLlib supports generating random RDDs with i.i.d. values drawn from a given distribution: uniform, standard normal, or Poisson.
{% highlight scala %} import org.apache.spark.SparkContext import org.apache.spark.mllib.random.RandomRDDs._

, evenly distributed in 10 partitions.
val u = normalRDD(sc, 1000000L, 10)
// Apply a transform to get a random double RDD following N(1, 4)
.
val v = u.map(x => 1.0 + 2.0 * x)
{% endhighlight %}
{% highlight java %} import org.apache.spark.SparkContext; import org.apache.spark.api.JavaDoubleRDD; import static org.apache.spark.mllib.random.RandomRDDs.*;

JavaDoubleRDD u = normalJavaRDD(jsc, 1000000L, 10);
// Apply a transform to get a random double RDD following N(1, 4)

JavaDoubleRDD v = u.map(
new Function<Double, Double>() {
public Double call(Double x) {
return 1.0 + 2.0 * x;
}
});
