Pyspark py4j PickleException: “expected zero arguments for construction of ClassDict”

问题

This question is directed towards persons familiar with py4j - and can help to resolve a pickling error. I am trying to add a method to the pyspark PythonMLLibAPI that accepts an RDD of a namedtuple, does some work, and returns a result in the form of an RDD.

This method is modeled after the PYthonMLLibAPI.trainALSModel() method, whose analogous existing relevant portions are:

  def trainALSModel(
    ratingsJRDD: JavaRDD[Rating],
    .. )

The existing python Rating class used to model the new code is:

class Rating(namedtuple("Rating", ["user", "product", "rating"])):
    def __reduce__(self):
        return Rating, (int(self.user), int(self.product), float(self.rating))

Here is the attempt So here are the relevant classes:

New python class pyspark.mllib.clustering.MatrixEntry:

from collections import namedtuple
class MatrixEntry(namedtuple("MatrixEntry", ["x","y","weight"])):
    def __reduce__(self):
        return MatrixEntry, (long(self.x), long(self.y), float(self.weight))

New method foobarRDD In PythonMLLibAPI:

  def foobarRdd(
    data: JavaRDD[MatrixEntry]): RDD[FooBarResult] = {
    val rdd = data.rdd.map { d => FooBarResult(d.i, d.j, d.value, d.i * 100 + d.j * 10 + d.value)}
    rdd
  }

Now let us try it out:

from pyspark.mllib.clustering import MatrixEntry

def convert_to_MatrixEntry(tuple):
  return MatrixEntry(*tuple)

from pyspark.mllib.clustering import *
pic = PowerIterationClusteringModel(2)
tups = [(1,2,3),(4,5,6),(12,13,14),(15,7,8),(16,17,16.5)]
trdd = sc.parallelize(map(convert_to_MatrixEntry,tups))

# print out the RDD on python side just for validation
print "%s" %(repr(trdd.collect()))

from pyspark.mllib.common import callMLlibFunc
pic = callMLlibFunc("foobar", trdd)

Relevant portions of results:

[(1,2)=3.0, (4,5)=6.0, (12,13)=14.0, (15,7)=8.0, (16,17)=16.5]

which shows the input rdd is 'whole'. However the pickling was unhappy:

Below is a visual of the python invocation stack trace:

回答1:

I had the same error as I was using MLlib, and it turned out that I had returned a wrong datatype in one of my functions. It now works after a simple cast on the returned value. This might not be the answer you're seeking but it is at least a hint for the direction to follow.

回答2:

Had the same issue, several times. numpy types don't have implicit conversions to pyspark.sql.types.

Make a simple explicit conversion to the native type system. In my case it was:

float(vector_a.dot(vector_b)

回答3:

I received this error using Spark Version >= 2.0.

Spark is transitioning MLlib fucntionality to the newer ML namespace. As a result there are two types of SparseVector: ml.linalg.SparseVector and mllib.linalg.SparseVector

Some MLlib functions still expect the older mllib kind

from pyspark.ml.linalg import Vectors
# convert ML vector to older MLlib vector
old_vec = Vectors.fromML(new_vec)
