Resilient parallel similarity-based reasoning for classifying heterogeneous medical cases in MapReduce

Given the exponentially increasing volume of heterogenous medical cases, it is difficult to efficiently perform similarity-based reasoning (SBR) on a centralized machine. In this paper, we investigate how to perform SBR using MapReduce (SBRMR), which is an inference framework for data-intensive appl...
