20. Immutable Facts
case class PreyReading(sensorId: Int,
locationId: Int,
timestamp: Long,
animalsLowerBound: Double,
animalsUpperBound: Double,
percentZebras: Double)
implicit val preyReadingFormatter = Json.format[PreyReading]

21. Distributed Data Storage

22. Partition Tolerance

23. Distributed Data Storage

24. Immutable Facts
val reading = PreyReading(36,
12,
currentTimeMillis(),
12.0,
18.0,
0.60)
val setDoc = bucket.set[PreyReading](readingId(reading), reading)

25. Scaling with Distributed Databases

26. Almost Immutable Data Model
{
"sensor_id": 123,
"readings": [
{
"sensor_id": 456,
"timestamp": 1457403598289,
"lower_bound": 12.0,
"upper_bound": 18.0,
"percent_zebras": 0.60
}
]
}

35. Original Features
object SquawkLength extends FeatureType[Int]
object Super extends LabelType[Boolean]
val originalFeatures: Set[FeatureType] = Set(SquawkLength)
val label = Super

36. Basic Features
object PastSquawks extends FeatureType[Int]
val basicFeatures = originalFeatures + PastSquawks

37. More Features
object MobileSquawker extends FeatureType[Boolean]
val moreFeatures = basicFeatures + MobileSquawker

38. Feature Collections
case class FeatureCollection(id: Int,
createdAt: DateTime,
features: Set[_ <: FeatureType[_]],
label: LabelType[_])

39. Feature Collections
val earlierCollection = FeatureCollection(101,
earlier,
basicFeatures,
label)
val latestCollection = FeatureCollection(202,
now,
moreFeatures,
label)
val featureCollections = sc.parallelize(
Seq(earlierCollection, latestCollection))

40. Fallback Collections
val FallbackCollection = FeatureCollection(404,
beginningOfTime,
originalFeatures,
label)

41. Fallback Collections
def validCollection(collections: RDD[FeatureCollection],
invalidFeatures: Set[FeatureType[_]]) = {
val validCollections = collections.filter(
fc => !fc.features
.exists(invalidFeatures.contains))
.sortBy(collection => collection.id)
if (validCollections.count() > 0) {
validCollections.first()
} else

45. Models of Love

46. Traits of Spark

47. Reactive Strategies in Spark

48. Data Preparation
val labelIndexer = new StringIndexer()
.setInputCol("label")
.setOutputCol("indexedLabel")
.fit(instances)
val featureIndexer = new VectorIndexer()
.setInputCol("features")
.setOutputCol("indexedFeatures")
.fit(instances)
val Array(trainingData, testingData) = instances.randomSplit(
Array(0.8, 0.2))

49. Learning a Model
val decisionTree = new DecisionTreeClassifier()
.setLabelCol("indexedLabel")
.setFeaturesCol("indexedFeatures")
val labelConverter = new IndexToString()
.setInputCol("prediction")
.setOutputCol("predictedLabel")
.setLabels(labelIndexer.labels)
val pipeline = new Pipeline()
.setStages(Array(labelIndexer, featureIndexer, decisionTree,
labelConverter))

50. Evolving Modeling Strategies
val randomForest = new RandomForestClassifier()
.setLabelCol("indexedLabel")
.setFeaturesCol("indexedFeatures")
val revisedPipeline = new Pipeline()
.setStages(Array(labelIndexer, featureIndexer, randomForest,
labelConverter))

51. Deep Models of Artistic Style

52. Refactoring Command Line Tools
> python neural-art-tf.py -m vgg -mp ./vgg -c ./images/
bear.jpg -s ./images/style.jpg -w 800
def produce_art(content_image_path, style_image_path,
model_path, model_type, width, alpha, beta, num_iters):

53. Exposing a Service
class NeuralServer(object):
def generate(self, content_image_path, style_image_path,
model_path, model_type, width, alpha, beta, num_iters):
produce_art(content_image_path, style_image_path,
model_path, model_type, width, alpha, beta, num_iters)
return True
daemon = Pyro4.Daemon()
ns = Pyro4.locateNS()
uri = daemon.register(NeuralServer)
ns.register("neuralserver", uri)
daemon.requestLoop()

54. Encoding Model Types
object ModelType extends Enumeration {
type ModelType = Value
val VGG = Value("VGG")
val I2V = Value("I2V")
}

55. Encoding Valid Configuration
case class JobConfiguration(contentPath: String,
stylePath: String,
modelPath: String,
modelType: ModelType,
width: Integer = 800,
alpha: java.lang.Double = 1.0,
beta: java.lang.Double = 200.0,
iterations: Integer = 5000)

56. Finding the Service
val ns = NameServerProxy.locateNS(null)
val remoteServer = new PyroProxy(ns.lookup("neuralserver"))

57. Calling the Service
def callServer(remoteServer: PyroProxy, jobConfiguration:
JobConfiguration) = {
Future.firstCompletedOf(
List(
timedOut,
Future {
remoteServer.call("generate",
jobConfiguration.contentPath,
jobConfiguration.stylePath,
jobConfiguration.modelPath,
jobConfiguration.modelType.toString,
jobConfiguration.width,
jobConfiguration.alpha,
jobConfiguration.beta,
jobConfiguration.iterations).asInstanceOf[Boolean]
}))}
