What is K-Means ?Given a set of observations (x1, x2, …, xn), where each observation is a d-dimensional real vector, k-means clustering aims to partition the n observations into k (≤ n) sets S = {S1, S2, …, Sk}The clusters are determined by minimizing the inter-cluster sum of squares (ICSS) (sum of distance functions of each point in the cluster to the K center). In other words, the objective is to find

where μi is the mean of points in Si.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/K-means_clustering

Real Time ML VisualizationUse Cases

Use visualization to determine whether to end the training early

Need a way to visualize the training process including the convergence, clustering or residual plots, etc. Need a way to stop the training and save current modelNeed a way to disable or enable the visualization

Real Time ML Visualization with Spark

DEMO

How to Enable Real Time ML Visualization ?

A callback interface for Spark Machine Learning Algorithm to send messages

Algorithms decide when and what message to sendAlgorithms don’t care how the message is delivered

A task channel to handle the message delivery from Spark Driver to Spark Client

It doesn’t care about the content of the message or who sent the messageThe message is delivered from Spark Client to Browser

We use HTML5 Server-Sent Events ( SSE) and HTTP Chunked Response (PUSH) Pull is possible, but requires a message Queue

Machine Learning Listeners

Callback Interface: ML Listener

trait MLListener { def onMessage(message: => Any)}

Callback Interface: MLListenerSupport

trait MLListenerSupport { // rest of codedef sendMessage(message: => Any): Unit = { if (enableListener) { listeners.foreach(l => l.onMessage(message)) }}

KMeansEx: KMeans with MLListener

class KMeansExt private (…) extends Serializable with Logging with MLListenerSupport { ... }

KMeansEx: KMeans with MLListenercase class KMeansCoreStats (iteration: Int, centers: Array[Vector], cost: Double )

private def runAlgorithm(data: RDD[VectorWithNorm]): KMeansModel = { ... while (!stopIteration && iteration < maxIterations && !activeRuns.isEmpty) {

...if (listenerEnabled()) {

sendMessage(KMeansCoreStats(…)) }...

}}

KMeans ML Listener class KMeansListener(columnNames: List[String], data : RDD[Vector], logger : MessageLogger) extends MLListener{ var sampleDataOpt : Option[Array[Vector]]= None

override def onMessage(message : => Any): Unit = { message match { case coreStats :KMeansCoreStats => if (sampleDataOpt.isEmpty)

sampleDataOpt = Some(data.takeSample(withReplacement = false, num=100)) //use the KMeans model of the current iteration to predict sample cluster indexes val kMeansModel = new KMeansModel(coreStats.centers) val cluster=sampleDataOpt.get.map(vector => (vector.toArray, kMeansModel.predict(vector))) val msg = KMeansStats(…) logger.sendBroadCastMessage(MLConstants.KMEANS_CENTER, msg) case _ => println(" message lost")}

KMeans Spark Job SetupVal appCtxOpt : Option[ApplicationContext] = …val kMeans = new KMeansExt().setK(numClusters) .setEpsilon(epsilon) .setMaxIterations(maxIterations) .enableListener(enableVisualization) .addListener( new KMeansListener(...))

appCtxOpt.foreach(_.addTaskObserver(new MLTaskObserver(kMeans,logger)))

kMeans.run(vectors)

ML Task ObserverReceives command from User to update running Spark JobOnce receives UpdateTask Command from notify call, it preforms the necessary update operation

trait TaskObserver { def notify (task: UpdateTaskCmd)}

class MLTaskObserver(support: MLListenerSupport, logger: MessageLogger ) extends TaskObserver { //implement notify }

Logistic Regression MLListenerclass LogisticRegression(…) extends MLListenerSupport { def train(data: RDD[(Double, Vector)]): LogisticRegressionModel= {

// initialization code val (rawWeights, loss) = OWLQN.runOWLQN( …) generateLORModel(…) }

}

Logistic Regression MLListenerobject OWLQN extends Logging { def runOWLQN(/*args*/,mlSupport:Option[MLListenerSupport]):(Vector, Array[Double]) = {

val costFun=new CostFun(data, mlSupport, IterationState(), /*other args */)val states : Iterator[lbfgs.State] = lbfgs.iterations(new CachedDiffFunction(costFun), initialWeights.toBreeze.toDenseVector ) …}

Logistic Regression MLListenerIn Cost function :

override def calculate(weights: BDV[Double]): (Double, BDV[Double]) = {

val shouldStop = mlSupport.exists(_.stopIteration)

if (!shouldStop) { … mlSupport.filter(_.listenerEnabled()).map { s=> s.sendMessage( (iState.iteration, w, loss)) }

… } else { … }}

HTML5 Server-Sent Events (SSE)Server-sent Events (SSE) is one-way messaging

An event is when a web page automatically get update from ServerRegister an event source (JavaScript) var source = new EventSource(url);The Callback onMessage(data)

source.onmessage = function(message){...}Data Format:

data: { \ndata: “key” : “value”, \n\ndata: } \n\n

HTTP Chunked ResponseSpray Rest Server supports Chunked Response

val responseStart = HttpResponse(entity = HttpEntity(`text/event-stream`, s"data: Start\n"))requestCtx.responder ! ChunkedResponseStart(responseStart).withAck(Messages.Ack)

val nextChunk = MessageChunk(s"data: $r \n\n")requestCtx.responder ! nextChunk.withAck(Messages.Ack)

requestCtx.responder ! MessageChunk(s"data: Finished \n\n")requestCtx.responder ! ChunkedMessageEnd

Push vs. PullPushPros

The data is streamed (pushed) to browser via chunked responseThere is no need for data queue, but the data can be lost if not consumedMultiple pages can be pushed at the same time, which allows multiple visualization views

ConsFor slow network, slow browser and fast data iterations, the data might all show-up in browser at once, rather showing a nice iteration-by-iteration displayIf you control the data chunked response by Network Acknowledgement, the visualization may not show-up at all as the data is not pushed due to slow network acknowledgement

Push vs. PullPullPros

Message does not get lost, since it can be temporarily stored in the message queueThe visualization will render in an even pace

Cons Need to periodically send server request for update,We will need a message queue before the message is consumedHard to support multiple pages rendering with simple message queue

Visualization: Plot.ly + D3

Alpine Workflow

Use Plot.ly to render graph

function showCost(dataParsed) { var costTrace = { … }; var data = [ costTrace ]; var costLayout = { xaxis: {…}, yaxis: {…}, title: … }; Plotly.newPlot('cost', data, costLayout);}

Real Time ML Visualization: Summary• Training machine learning model involves a lot of

experimentation, we need a way to visualize the training process.

• We presented a system to enable real time machine learning visualization with Spark: – Gives visibility into the training of a model– Allows us monitor the convergence of the algorithms during

training– Can stop the iterations when convergence is good enough.
