Rhipe that integrates R and Hadoop environment, made it possible to process and analyze massive amounts of data using a distributed processing environment. In this paper, we implemented multiple regression analysis using Rhipe with various data sizes of actual data and simulated data. Experimental results for comparing the computing speeds of pseudo-distributed and fully-distributed modes for configuring Hadoop cluster, showed fully-distributed mode was more fast than pseudo-distributed mode and computing speeds of fully-distributed mode were faster as the number of data nodes increases. We also compared the performance of our Rhipe with stats and biglm packages available on bigmemory. The results showed that our Rhipe was more fast than other packages owing to paralleling processing with increasing the number of map tasks as the size of data increases.

As Big Data becomes the core of the fourth industrial revolution, big data-based processing and analysis capabilities are expected to influence the company's future competitiveness. Comparative studies of RHadoop and RHIPE that integrate R and Hadoop environment, have not been discussed by many researchers although RHadoop and RHIPE have been discussed separately. In this paper, we constructed big data platforms such as RHadoop and RHIPE applicable to large scale data and implemented the machine learning algorithms such as multiple regression and logistic regression based on MapReduce framework. We conducted a study on performance and scalability with those implementations for various sample sizes of actual data and simulated data. The experiments demonstrated that our RHadoop and RHIPE can scale well and efficiently process large data sets on commodity hardware. We showed RHIPE is faster than RHadoop in almost all the data generally.

The Hadoop system was developed by the Apache foundation based on GFS and MapReduce technologies of Google. Many modern systems for managing and processing the big data have been developing based on the Hadoop because the Hadoop was designed for scalability and distributed computing. The R software has been considered as a well-suited analytic tool in the Hadoop based systems because the R is flexible to other languages and has many libraries for complex analyses. We introduced Rhipe which is a R package supporting MapReduce programming easily under the Hadoop system, and implemented a MapReduce program using Rhipe for multiple regression especially. In addition, we compared the computing speeds of our program with the other packages (ff and bigmemory) for processing the large data. The simulation results showed that our program was more fast than ff and bigmemory as the size of data increases.

Machine learning becomes increasingly important in the big data era. Logistic regression is a type of classification in machine leaning, and has been widely used in various fields, including medicine, economics, marketing, and social sciences. Rhipe that integrates R and Hadoop environment, has not been discussed by many researchers owing to the difficulty of its installation and MapReduce implementation. In this paper, we present the MapReduce implementation of Gradient Descent algorithm and Newton-Raphson algorithm for logistic regression using Rhipe. The Newton-Raphson algorithm does not require a learning rate, while Gradient Descent algorithm needs to manually pick a learning rate. We choose the learning rate by performing the mixed procedure of grid search and binary search for processing big data efficiently. In the performance study, our Newton-Raphson algorithm outpeforms Gradient Descent algorithm in all the tested data.

In this paper we propose the approach for big data integration so as to analyze, visualize and predict the future of the trend of the market, and that is to get the integration data model using the R language which is the future of the statistics and the Hadoop which is a parallel processing for the data. As four approaching methods using R and Hadoop, ff package in R, R and Streaming as Hadoop utility, and Rhipe and RHadoop as R and Hadoop interface packages are used, and the strength and weakness of four methods are described and analyzed, so Rhipe and RHadoop are proposed as a complete set of data integration model. The integration of R, which is popular for processing statistical algorithm and Hadoop contains Distributed File System and resource management platform and can implement the MapReduce programming model gives us a new environment where in R code can be written and deployed in Hadoop without any data movement. This model allows us to predictive analysis with high performance and deep understand over the big data.

Machine learning has found widespread implementations and applications in many different domains in our life. Logistic regression is a type of classification in machine leaning, and is used widely in many fields, including medicine, economics, marketing and social sciences. In this paper, we present the MapReduce implementation of three existing algorithms, this is, Gradient Descent algorithm, Cost Minimization algorithm and Newton-Raphson algorithm, for logistic regression on RHadoop that integrates R and Hadoop environment applicable to large scale data. We compare the performance of these algorithms for estimation of logistic regression coefficients with real and simulated data sets. We also compare the performance of our RHadoop and RHIPE platforms. The performance experiments showed that our Newton-Raphson algorithm when compared to Gradient Descent and Cost Minimization algorithms appeared to be better to all data tested, also showed that our RHadoop was better than RHIPE in real data, and was opposite in simulated data.
