Homework Overview

Modern-day datasets are large. For example, the NASA Terra and Aqua satellites each produces over 300GB of satellite imagery daily. These datasets are too large for typical computer hard drives and requires advanced technologies for processing. In this assignment, you will work with a dataset of over 1 billion taxi trips from the New York City Taxi & Limousine Commission (TLC). Further details on this dataset are available here. This assignment aims to familiarize you with various tools that will be valuable for future projects, research, or career opportunities. By including AWS, Azure and GCP, we want to provide the opportunity to explore and compare these rapidly evolving platforms. This experience will help you make informed decisions when selecting a cloud platform in the future, allowing you to get started quickly and confidently. Many of the computational tasks in this assignment are straightforward, though quite a bit of “setup” will be needed before reaching the actual “programming” stage. Setting up work environments, launching clusters, monitoring compute usage, and running large-scale experiments on cloud platforms are important skills. This assignment familiarizes you with using machine clusters and understanding the pay-per-use model of most cloud services, offering a valuable first experience with cloud computing for many students.

Important Notes A. Submit your work by the due date on the course schedule. a. Every assignment has a generous 48-hour grace period, allowing students to address unexpected minor issues without facing penalties. You may use it without asking. b. Before the grace period expires, you may resubmit as many times as you need. c. TA assistance is not guaranteed during the grace period. d. Submissions during the grace period will display as “late” but will not incur a penalty. e. We will not accept any submissions executed after the grace period ends. B. Always use the most up-to-date assignment (version number at the bottom right of this document). The latest version will be listed in Ed Discussion. C. You may discuss ideas with other students at the “whiteboard” level (e.g., how cross-validation works, use HashMap instead of an array) and review any relevant materials online. However, each student must write up and submit the student’s own answers. D. All incidents of suspected dishonesty, plagiarism, or violations of the Georgia Tech Honor Code will be subject to the institute’s Academic Integrity procedures, directly handled by the Office of Student Integrity (OSI). Consequences can be severe, e.g., academic probation or dismissal, a 0 grade for assignments concerned, and prohibition from withdrawing from the class. Submission Notes A. All questions are graded on the Gradescope platform, accessible through Canvas. B. We will not accept submissions anywhere else outside of Gradescope. C. Submit all required files as specified in each question. Make sure they are named correctly. D. You may upload your code periodically to Gradescope to obtain feedback on your code. There are no hidden test cases. The score you see on Gradescope is what you will receive. E. You must not use Gradescope as the primary way to test your code. It provides only a few test cases and error messages may not be as informative as local debuggers. Iteratively develop and test your code locally, write more test cases, and follow good coding practices. Use Gradescope mainly as a “final” check. F. Gradescope cannot run code that contains syntax errors. If you get the “The autograder failed to execute correctly” error, verify: a. The code is free of syntax errors (by running locally) b. All methods have been implemented c. The correct file was submitted with the correct name d. No extra packages or files were imported G. When many students use Gradescope simultaneously, it may slow down or fail. It can become even slower as the deadline approaches. You are responsible for submitting your work on time. H. Each submission and its score will be recorded and saved by Gradescope. By default, your last submission is used for grading. To use a different submission, you MUST “activate” it (click the “Submission History” button at the bottom toolbar, then “Activate”). Do I need to use the specific version of the software listed? Under each question, you will see a set of technologies with specific versions – this is what is installed on the autograder and what it will run your code with. Thus, installing those specific versions on your computer to complete the question is highly recommended. You may be able to complete the question with different versions installed locally, but you are responsible for determining the compatibility of your code. We will not award points for code that works locally but not on the autograder. 3 Version 1 Q1 [15 points] Analyzing trips data with PySpark Follow these instructions to download and set up a preconfigured Docker image that you will use for this assignment. that you will use for this assignment. Why use Docker? In earlier iterations of this course, students installed software on their own machines, and we (both students and instructor team) ran into many issues that could not be resolved satisfactorily. Docker allows us to distribute a cross-platform, preconfigured image with all the requisite software and correct package versions. Once Docker is installed and the container is running, access Jupyter by browsing to http://localhost:6242. There is no need to install any additional Java or PySpark dependencies as they are all bundled as part of the Docker container.

You will use the yellow_tripdata_2019-01_short.csv dataset, a modified record of the NYC Green Taxi trips that includes information about the pick-up and drop-off dates/times, pick-up and drop-off locations, trip distances, fare amounts, payment types, and driver-reported passenger counts. When processing the data or performing calculations, do not round any values, unless specifically instructed to. Technology PySpark, Docker Deliverables [Gradescope] q1.ipynb: your solution as a Jupyter Notebook file IMPORTANT NOTES: • Only regular PySpark Dataframe Operations can be used. • Do NOT use PySpark SQL functions, i.e., sqlContext.sql(‘select * … ‘). We noticed that students frequently encountered difficult-to-resolve issues when using these functions. Additionally, since you already worked extensively with SQL in HW1, completing this task in SQL would offer limited educational value. • Do not reference sqlContext within the functions you are defining for the assignment. • If you re-run cells, remember to restart the kernel to clear the Spark context, otherwise an existing Spark context may cause errors. • Be sure to save your work often! If you do not see your notebook in Jupyter, then double check that the file is present in the folder and that your Docker has been set up correctly. If, after checking both, the file still does not appear in Jupyter then you can still move forward by clicking the “upload” button in the Jupyter notebook and uploading the file – however, if you use this approach, then your file will not be saved to disk when you save in Jupyter, so you would need to download your work by going to File > Download as… > Notebook (.ipynb), so be sure to download often to save your work! • Do not add any cells or additional library imports to the notebook. • Remove all your additional debugging code that renders output, as it will crash Gradescope. For instance, any additional print, display and show statements used for debugging must be removed. Tasks and point breakdown 1. [1 pt] You will be modifying the function clean_data to clean the data. Cast the following columns into the specified data types: a. passenger_count — integer b. total_amount — float c. tip_amount — float d. trip_distance — float e. fare_amount — float f. tpep_pickup_datetime — timestamp 4 Version 1 g. tpep_dropoff_datetime — timestamp 2. [4 pts] You will be modifying the function common_pair. Return the top 10 pickup-dropoff location pairs that have the highest sum of passenger_count who have traveled between them. Sort the location pairs by total passengers between pairs. For each location pair, also compute the average amount per passenger over all trips (name this per_person_rate), utilizing total_amount. For pairs with the same total passengers, sort them in descending order of per_person_rate. Filter out any trips that have the same pick-up and drop-off location. Rename the column for total passengers to total_passenger_count. Sample Output Format — The values below are for demonstration purposes: PULocationID DOLocationID total_passenger_count per_person_rate 1 2 23 5.242345 3 4 5 6.61345634 3. [4 pts] You will be modifying the function distance_with_most_tip . Filter the data for trips having fares (fare_amount) greater than $2.00 and a trip distance (trip_distance) greater than 0. Calculate the tip percent (tip_amount * 100 / fare_amount) for each trip. Round all trip distances up to the closest mile and find the average tip_percent for each trip_distance. Sort the result in descending order of tip_percent to obtain the top 15 trip distances which tip the most generously. Rename the column for rounded trip distances to trip_distance, and the column for average tip percents tip_percent. Sample Output Format — The values below are for demonstration purposes: trip_distance tip_percent 2 6.2632344561 1 4.42342882 4. [6 pts] You will be modifying the function time_with_most_traffic to determine which hour of the day has the most traffic. Calculate the traffic for a particular hour using the average speed of all taxi trips which began during that hour. Calculate the average speed as the average trip_distance divided by the average trip duration, as distance per hour. Make sure to determine the average durations and average trip distances before calculating the speed. It will likely be helpful to cast the dates to the long data type when determining the interval. A day with low average speed indicates high levels of traffic. The average speed may be 0, indicating very high levels of traffic. Additionally, you must separate the hours into AM and PM, with hours 0:00-11:59 being AM, and hours 12:00-23:59 being PM. Convert these times to the 12 hour time, so you can match the output below. For example, the row with 1 as time of day, should show the average speed between 1 am and 2 am in the am_avg_speed column, and between 1 pm and 2pm in the pm_avg_speed column. Use date_format along with the appropriate pattern letters to format the time of day so that it matches the example output below. Your final table should contain values sorted from 0-11 for time_of_day. There may be data missing for a time of day, and it may be null for am_avg_speed 5 Version 1 or pm_avg_speed. If an hour has no data for am or pm, there may be missing rows. You will not have rows for all possible times of day, and do not need to add them to the data if they are missing. Sample Output Format — The values below are for demonstration purposes: time_of_day am_avg_speed pm_avg_speed 1 0.953452345 9.23345272 2 5.2424622 null 4 null 2.55421905 6 Version 1 Q2 [30 pts] Analyzing dataset with Spark/Scala on Databricks Firstly, go over this Spark on Databricks Tutorial, to learn the basics of creating Spark jobs, loading data, and working with data. You will analyze nyc-tripdata.csv1 using Spark and Scala on the Databricks platform. (A short description of how Spark and Scala are related can be found here.) You will also need to use the taxi zone lookup table using taxi_zone_lookup.csv that maps the location ID into the actual name of the region in NYC. The nyc-trip data dataset is a modified record of the NYC Green Taxi trips and includes information about the pick-up and drop-off dates/times, pick-up and drop-off locations, trip distances, fare amounts, payment types, and driverreported passenger counts. Technology Spark/Scala, Databricks Deliverables [Gradescope] • q2.dbc: Your solution as Scala Notebook archive file (.dbc) exported from Databricks (see Databricks Setup Guide below) • q2.scala: Your solution as a Scala source file exported from Databricks (see Databricks Setup Guide below) • q2_results.csv: The output results from your Scala code in the Databricks q2 notebook file. You must carefully copy the outputs of the display()/show() function into a file titled q2_results.csv under the relevant sections. Please double-check and compare your actual output with the results you copied.

IMPORTANT NOTES: • Use only Firefox, Safari or Chrome when configuring anything related to Databricks. The setup process has been verified to work on these browsers. • Carefully follow the instructions in the Databricks Setup Guide. (You should have already downloaded the data needed for this question using the link provided before Homework Overview.) o You must choose the Databricks Runtime (DBR) version as “10.4 (includes Apache Spark 3.2.1, Scala 2.12)”. We will grade your work using this version. o Note that you do not need to install Scala or Spark on your local machine. They are provided with the DBR environment. • You must use only Scala DataFrame operations for this question. Scala DataFrames are just another name for Spark DataSet of rows. You can use the DataSet API in Spark to work on these DataFrames. Here is a Spark document that will help you get started on working with DataFrames in Spark. You will lose points if you use SQL queries, Python, or R to manipulate a DataFrame. o After selecting the default language as SCALA, do not use the language magic % with other languages like %r, %python, %sql etc. The language magics are used to override the default language, which you must not do for this assignment. o You must not use full SQL queries in lieu of the Spark DataFrame API. That is, you must not use functions like sql(), which allows you to directly write full SQL queries like spark.sql (“SELECT* FROM col1 WHERE …”). This should be df.select(“*”) instead. • The template Scala notebook q2.dbc (in hw3-skeleton) provides you with code that reads a data file nyc-tripdata.csv. The input data is loaded into a DataFrame, inferring the schema using reflection (Refer to the Databricks Setup Guide above). It also contains code that filters the data to only keep the rows where the pickup location is different from the drop location, and the trip distance is strictly greater than 2.0 (>2.0). 1 Graph derived from the NYC Taxi and Limousine Commission 7 Version 1 o All tasks listed below must be performed on this filtered DataFrame, or you will end up with wrong answers. o Carefully read the instructions in the notebook, which provides hints for solving the problems. • Some tasks in this question have specified data types for the results that are of lower precision (e.g., float). For these tasks, we will accept relevant higher precision formats (e.g., double). Similarly, we will accept results stored in data types that offer “greater range” (e.g., long, bigint) than what we have specified (e.g., int). • Remove all your additional debugging code that renders output, as it will crash Gradescope. For instance, any additional print, display and show statements used for debugging must be removed. • Hint: You may find some of the following DataFrame operations helpful: toDF, join, select, groupBy, orderBy, filter, agg, window(), partitionBy, orderBy, etc. Tasks and point breakdown 1. List the top 5 most popular locations for: a. [2 pts] dropoff based on “DOLocationID”, sorted in descending order by popularity. If there is a tie, then one with a lower “DOLocationID” gets listed first. b. [2 pts] pickup based on “PULocationID”, sorted in descending order by popularity. If there is a tie, then the one with a lower “PULocationID” gets listed first. 2. [4 pts] List the top 3 locationID’s with the maximum overall activity. Here, overall activity at a LocationID is simply the sum of all pick-ups and all drop-offs at that LocationID. In case of a tie, the lower LocationID gets listed first. Note: If a taxi picked up 3 passengers at once, we count it as 1 pickup and not 3 pickups. 3. [4 pts] List all the boroughs (of NYC: Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, Staten Island, Bronx along with “Unknown” and “EWR”) and their total number of activities, in descending order of a total number of activities. Here, the total number of activities for a borough (e.g., Queens) is the sum of the overall activities (as defined in part 2) of all the LocationIDs that fall in that borough (Queens). An example output format is shown below. 4. [5 pts] List the top 2 days of the week with the largest number of daily average pick-ups, along with the average number of pick-ups on each of the 2 days in descending order (no rounding off required). Here, the average pickup is calculated by taking an average of the number of pick-ups on different dates falling on the same day of the week. For example, 02/01/2021, 02/08/2021 and 02/15/2021 are all Mondays, so the average pick-ups for these is the sum of the pickups on each date divided by 3. An example output is shown below. 8 Version 1 Note: The day of week is a string of the day’s full spelling, e.g., “Monday” instead of the number 1 or “Mon”. Also, the pickup_datetime is in the format: yyyy-mm-dd 5. [6 pts] For each hour of a day (0 to 23, 0 being midnight) — in the order from 0 to 23 (inclusively), find the zone in the Brooklyn borough with the largest number of total pick-ups. Note: All dates for each hour should be included. 6. [7 pts] Find which 3 different days in the month of January, in Manhattan, that saw the largest positive percentage increase in pick-ups compared to the previous day, in the order from largest percentage increase to smallest percentage increase. An example output is shown below. Note: All years need to be aggregated to calculate the pickups for a specific day of January. The change from Dec 31 to Jan 1 can be excluded. List the results of the above tasks in the provided q2_results.csv file under the relevant sections. These preformatted sections also show you the required output format from your Scala code with the necessary columns — while column names can be different, their resulting values must be correct. • You must manually enter the output generated into the corresponding sections of the q2_results.csv file, preferably using some spreadsheet software like MS-Excel (but make sure to keep the csv format). For generating the output in the Scala notebook, refer to show() and display()functions of Scala. • Note that you can edit this csv file using text editor, but please be mindful about putting the results under designated columns. • If you encounter a “UnicodeDecodeError”, please save file as “.csv UTF-8″ to resolve. Note: Do NOT modify anything other than filling in those required output values in this csv file. We grade by running the Spark Scala code you write and by looking at your results listed in this file. So, make sure your output is obtained from the Spark Scala code you write. Failure to include the dbc and scala files will result in a deduction from your overall score. 9 Version 1 Q3 [35 points] Analyzing Large Amount of Data with PySpark on AWS You will try out PySpark for processing data on Amazon Web Services (AWS). Here you can learn more about PySpark and how it can be used for data analysis. You will be completing a task that may be accomplished using a commodity computer (e.g., consumer-grade laptops or desktops). However, we would like you to use this exercise as an opportunity to learn distributed computing on AWS, and to gain experience that will help you tackle more complex problems. The services you will primarily be using are Amazon S3 storage, Amazon Athena. You will be creating an S3 bucket, running code using Athena and its serverless PySpark engine, and then storing the output into that S3 bucket. Amazon Athena is serverless, meaning that it is pay for what you use. There are no servers to maintain that will accrue costs whether it’s being used or not. For this question, you will only use up a very small fraction of your AWS credit. If you have any issues with the AWS Academy account, please post in the dedicated AWS Setup Ed Discussion thread. In this question, you will use a dataset of trip records provided by the New York City Taxi and Limousine Commission (TLC). You will be accessing the dataset directly through AWS via the code outlined in the homework skeleton. Specifically, you will be working with two samples of this dataset, one small, and one much larger. Optionally, if you would like to learn more about the dataset, check out here and here; also optionally, you may explore the structure of the data by referring to [1] [2]. You are provided with a python notebook (q3.ipynb) file which you will complete and load into EMR. You are provided with the load_data() function, which loads two PySpark DataFrames. The first DataFrame, trips, contains trip data where each record refers to one (1) trip. The second DataFrame, lookup, maps a LocationID to its trip information. It can be linked to either the PULocationID or DOLocationID fields in the trips DataFrame. Technology PySpark, AWS Deliverables [Gradescope] • q3.ipynb: PySpark notebook for this question (for the larger dataset). • q3_output_large.csv: output file (comma-separated) for the larger dataset. IMPORTANT NOTES • Use Firefox, Safari or Chrome when configuring anything related to AWS. • EXTREMELY IMPORTANT: Both the datasets are in the US East (N. Virginia) region. Using machines in other regions for computation will incur data transfer charges. Hence, set your region to US East (N. Virginia) in the beginning (not Oregon, which is the default). This is extremely important, otherwise your code may not work, and you may be charged extra. • Strictly follow the guidelines below, or your answer may not be graded. a. Ensure that the parameters for each function remain as defined and the output order and names of the fields in the PySpark DataFrames are maintained. b. Do not import any functions which were not already imported within the skeleton. c. You must NOT round any numeric values. Rounding numbers can introduce inaccuracies. Our grader will be checking the first 8 decimal places of each value in the DataFrame. d. You will not have access to the Spark object directly in the autograder. If you use it in your functions, the autograder will fail! You can use the Spark Context from the DataFrame. 10 Version 1 e. Double check that you are submitting the correct files, and the filenames follow the correct naming standard — we only want the script and output from the larger dataset. Also, double check that you are writing the right dataset’s output to the right file. f. You are welcome to store your script’s output in any bucket you choose if you can download and submit the correct files. g. Do not make any manual changes to the output files. h. Please ensure that you do not remove #export from the HW skeleton; i. Do not import any additional packages, INCLUDING pyspark.sql.functions, as this may cause the autograder to work incorrectly. Everything you need should be imported for you. j. Using .rdd() can cause issues in the GradeScope environment. You can accomplish this assignment without it. In general, since the RDD API is outdated (though not deprecated), you should be wary of using this API. k. Remove all your additional debugging code that renders output, as it will crash Gradescope. For instance, any additional print, display and show statements used for debugging must be removed. l. Regular Pyspark Dataframe Operations and PySpark SQL operations can be used. To use PySpark SQL operations, you must use the SQL Context on the Spark Dataframe.  Example: • df.createOrReplaceTempView(“some_table”) • df.sql_ctx.sql(“SELECT * FROM some_table”) Hints: a. Refer to DataFrame commands such as filter, join, groupBy, agg, limit, sort, withColumnRenamed and withColumn. Documentation for the DataFrame APIs is located here. b. Testing on a single, small dataset (i.e. a “test case”) is helpful, but is not sufficient for discovering all potential issues, especially if such issues only become apparent when the code is run on larger datasets. It is important for you to develop more ways to review and verify your code logic. c. Overwriting the DataFrames from the function parameters can cause unintended side effects when it comes to rounding. Be sure to preserve the DataFrames in each function. d. Precision in data analytics is very important. Keep in mind that precision reduction in an earlier step can accumulate and be magnified, subsequently significantly affecting the final output’s precision (e.g., for a dataset with 1,000,000 data points, a 0.0001 difference for each data point can lead to a total difference of 100 over the whole dataset). This is called precision loss. Check out this post or hints on how to avoid precision loss. e. Check if you’re reducing the precision (or “scale”) too aggressively. Can you relax the restriction during intermediate steps? f. Make sure you return a DataFrame. If you get NoneType errors, you are most likely not returning what you think you are. g. Some columns may need to be cast to the right data type. Keep that in mind! Tasks and point breakdown Your objective is to locate profitable pick-up locations in Manhattan by analyzing taxi trip data (only trips 2 miles or longer). Follow the steps below to identify top pick-up locations based on a “weighted profit” calculation: 1. [0 pts] Setting up the AWS environment. a. Go through all the steps in the AWS Setup Guide. You should have already completed Step 1 to create your account) to set up your AWS environment, e.g., creating S3 storage bucket, and uploading skeleton file. 2. [1 pts] user() 11 Version 1 a. Returns your GT Username as a string (e.g., gburdell3) 3. [2 pts] long_trips(trips) a. This function filters trips to keep only trips 2 miles or longer (e.g., >= 2). b. Returns PySpark DataFrame with the same schema as trips c. Note: Parts 4, 5 and 6 will use the result of this function 4. [6 pts] manhattan_trips(trips, lookup) a. This function determines the top 20 locations with a DOLocationID in Manhattan by sum of passenger count. b. Returns a PySpark DataFrame (mtrips) with the schema (DOLocationID, pcount) c. Note: If you encounter the error ‘Can only compare identically labeled DataFrame objects,’ it is likely due to the use of the RDD API. We recommend avoiding the use of the RDD API since it is not compatible with the autograder. Instead, we suggest rewriting the logic using a join clause. 5. [6 pts] weighted_profit(trips, mtrips) a. This function determines i. the average total_amount, ii. the total count of trips, and iii. the total count of trips ending in the top 20 destinations. b. Using the above values, i. determine the proportion of trips that end in one of the popular drop-off locations (# trips that end in drop off location divided by total # of trips) and ii. multiply that proportion by the average total_amount to get a weighted_profit value based on the probability of passengers going to one of the popular destinations. iii. Return the weighted_profit c. Returns a PySpark DataFrame with the schema (PULocationID, weighted_profit) for the weighted_profit . 6. [5 pts] final_output(wp, lookup) a. This function i. takes the results of weighted_profit, ii. links it to the borough and zone through the lookup data frame, iii. and returns the top 20 locations with the highest weighted_profit. b. Returns a PySpark DataFrame with the schema (Zone, Borough, weighted_profit) c. Note: If you encounter issues with ‘3.5 Test Final Output,’ primarily due to the DataFrame returned from ‘final_output()’ containing incorrect data, it is essential to reformat column data types, particularly when applying ‘agg()’ operations in previous sections. Once you have implemented all these functions, run the main() function, which is already implemented, and update the line of code to include the name of your output s3 bucket and a location. This function will fail if the output directory already exists, so make sure to change it each time you run the function. Example: final.write.csv(‘s3://cse6242-gburdell3/output-large3’) Your output file will appear in a folder in your s3 bucket as a csv file with a name which is similar to part-0000- 4d992f7a-0ad3-48f8-8c72-0022984e4b50-c000.csv. Download this file and rename it to q3_output_large.csv for submission. Do NOT make any other changes to the file. 12 Version 1 Q4 [10 points] Analyzing a Large Dataset using Spark on GCP The goal of this question is to familiarize you with creating storage buckets/clusters and running Spark programs on Google Cloud Platform. This question asks you to create a new Google Storage Bucket and load the NYC Taxi & Limousine Commission Dataset. You are also provided with a Jupyter Notebook q4.ipynb file, which you will load and complete in a Google Dataproc Cluster. Inside the notebook, you are provided with the skeleton for the load_data() function, which you will complete to load a PySpark DataFrame from the Google Storage Bucket you created as part of this question. Using this PySpark DataFrame, you will complete the following tasks using Spark DataFrame functions. You will use the data file yellow_tripdata09-08-2021.csv. The preceding link allows you to download the dataset you are required to work with for this question from the course DropBox. Each line represents a single taxi trip consisting of the comma-separated columns bulleted below. All columns are of string data type. You must convert the highlighted columns below into decimal data type (do NOT use float datatype) inside their respective functions when completing this question. Do not convert any datatypes within the load_data function. While casting to a decimal datatype, use a precision of 38 and a scale of 10. • vendorid • tpep_pickup_datetime • tpep_dropoff_datetime • passenger_count • trip_distance (decimal data type) • ratecodeid • store_and_fwd_flag • pulocationid • dolocationid • payment_type • fare_amount (decimal data type) • extra • mta_tax • tip_amount (decimal data type) • tolls_amount (decimal data type) • improvement_surcharge • total_amount Technology Spark, Google Cloud Platform (GCP) Deliverables [Gradescope] q4.ipynb: the PySpark notebook for this question. IMPORTANT NOTES: • Use Firefox, Safari or Chrome when configuring anything related to GCP. • Strictly follow the guidelines below, or your answer may not be graded. o Regular PySpark Dataframe Operations can be used. o Do NOT use any functions from the RDD API or your code will break the autograder. In general, the RDD API is considered outdated, so you should use the DataFrame API for better performance and compatibility. o Make sure to download the notebook from your GCP cluster before deleting the GCP cluster (otherwise, you will lose your work). o Do not add new cells to the notebook, as this may break the auto-grader. o Remove all your additional debugging code that renders output, as it will crash Gradescope. For instance, any additional print, display and show statements used for debugging must be removed. o Do not use any .rdd function in your code. Not only will this break the autograder, but you should 13 Version 1 be wary of using this function in general. o Ensure that you are only submitting a COMPLETE solution to Gradescope. Anything less will break the autograder. Write local unit tests to help test your code. Tasks and point breakdown 1. [0 pts] Set up your GCP environment a. Instructions to set up GCP Credits, GCP Storage and Dataproc Cluster are provide here: written instructions. b. Helpful tips/FAQs for special scenarios: i. If GCP service is disabled for your google account, try the steps in this google support link ii. If you have any issues with the GCP free credits, please post in the dedicated GCP Setup Ed Discussion thread. 2. [0 pts — required] Function load_data()to load data from a Google Storage Bucket into a Spark DataFrame a. You must first perform this task (part 2) BEFORE performing parts 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7. No points are allocated to task 2, but it is essential that you correctly implement the load_data()function as the remaining graded tasks depend upon this task and its correct implementation. Upload code to Gradescope ONLY after completing all tasks and removing/commenting all the testing code. Anything else will break the autograder. 3. [2 pts] Function exclude_no_pickup_locations() to exclude trips with no pick-up locations (pick-up location id column is null or is zero) in the original data from a. 4. [2 pts] Function exclude_no_trip_distance() to exclude trips with no distance (i.e., trip distance column is null or zero) in the dataframe output by exclude_no_pickup_locations(). 5. [2 pts] Function include_fare_range() to include trips with fare from $20 (inclusively) to $60 (inclusively) in the dataframe output by exclude_no_trip_distance(). 6. [2 pts] Function get_highest_tip() to identify the highest tip (rounded to 2 decimal places) in the dataframe output by include_fare_range(). 7. [2 pts] Function get_total_toll() to calculate the total toll amount (rounded to 2 decimal places) in the dataframe output by include_fare_range(). 14 Version 1 Q5 [10 points] Regression: Automobile price prediction using Azure Machine Learning The primary purpose of this question is to introduce you to Microsoft Machine Learning Studio by familiarizing you to its basic functionalities and machine learning workflows. Go through the Automobile Price Prediction tutorial and create/run ML experiments to complete the following tasks. You will not incur any cost if you save your experiments on Azure till submission. Once you are sure about the results and have reported them, feel free to delete your experiments. You will manually modify the given file q5.csv by adding the results using a plain text editor from the following tasks. Technology Azure Machine Learning Deliverables [Gradescope] q5.csv: a csv file containing results for all parts IMPORTANT NOTES: • Strictly follow the guidelines below, or your answer may not be graded. o DO NOT change the order of the questions. o Report the exact numerical values that you get in your output. DO NOT round any of them. o When manually entering a value into the csv file, append it immediately after a comma, so there will be NO space between the comma and your value, and no trailing spaces or commas after your value. o Follow the tutorial and do not change values for L2 regularization. For tasks 3 and 4, select the columns given in the tutorial. Tasks and point breakdown 1. [0 pts] Create and use a free workspace instance on Azure Machine Learning. Use your Georgia Tech username (e.g., jdoe3) to login. 2. [0 pts] Update q5.csv by replacing gburdell3 with your GT username. 3. [3 pts] Repeat the experiment described in the tutorial and report values of all metrics as mentioned in the Evaluate Model section of the tutorial. Make sure the Split Data looks as it does below: 4. [3 pts] Repeat the experiment mentioned in task 3 with a different value of Fraction of rows in the first output dataset in the Split Data module. Change the value to 0.8 from the originally set value of 0.7. Report corresponding values of the metrics. 15 Version 1 5. [4 pts] After fully completing tasks 3 and 4, run a new experiment — evaluate the model using 5- fold cross-validation CV. a. Select parameters in the Partition and Sample component in accordance with the figure below. b. For Cross Validate model set the column name as “price” for CV and use 0 as a random seed. c. Report the values of Root Mean Squared Error (RMSE) and Coefficient of Determination for each of the five folds (1st fold corresponds to fold number 0 and so on). Do NOT round the results. Report exact values. d. HINT: to see results, right click Cross Validate Model and select Preview data  Evaluation results by fold. Make sure to utilize the same data cleaning/processing steps as you did before. Figure: Property Tab of Partition and Sample Module
