In May 2025, Samin Bassiri developed a built-in cooccurrenceMatrix function for GloVe embeddings in the apache/systemds repository. This feature automated the end-to-end computation of co-occurrence matrices for natural language processing tasks, integrating text cleaning, tokenization, and window-based weighting directly into the workflow. Samin implemented the solution using DML and Java, ensuring efficient data processing and robust matrix encoding. A dedicated unit test was added to validate the correctness and stability of the computation path. This work expanded SystemDS’s NLP capabilities, enabling more efficient GloVe embedding workflows and laying groundwork for improved performance in matrix-based machine learning operations.
