Overview of this book

Java is the most popular programming language, according to the TIOBE index, and it is a typical choice for running production systems in many companies, both in the startup world and among large enterprises. Not surprisingly, it is also a common choice for creating data science applications: it is fast and has a great set of data processing tools, both built-in and external. What is more, choosing Java for data science allows you to easily integrate solutions with existing software, and bring data science into production with less effort. This book will teach you how to create data science applications with Java. First, we will revise the most important things when starting a data science application, and then brush up the basics of Java and machine learning before diving into more advanced topics. We start by going over the existing libraries for data processing and libraries with machine learning algorithms. After that, we cover topics such as classification and regression, dimensionality reduction and clustering, information retrieval and natural language processing, and deep learning and big data. Finally, we finish the book by talking about the ways to deploy the model and evaluate it in production settings.

Summary


In this chapter, we looked at ways to handle very large amounts of data and special tools for doing this such as Apache Hadoop MapReduce and Apache Spark. We saw how to use them to process Common Crawl - the copy of the Internet, and calculate some useful statistics from it. Finally, we created a Link Prediction model for recommending coauthors and trained an XGBoost model in a distributed way.

In the next chapter, we will look at how Data Science models can be deployed to production systems.
