From the Mahout FAQ, Hadoop is not required for all of the algorithms implemented in Mahout, including:

  • User-based collaborative filtering
  • Item-based collaborative filtering
  • Matrix factorization with alternating least squares
  • Matrix factorization with alternating least squares on implicit feedback
  • Weighted matrix factorization
  • Logistic regression
  • Hidden Markov models
  • Canopy clustering
  • k-means clustering
  • Fuzzy k-means
  • Streaming k-means
  • Singular value decomposition
  • Lanczos algo
