      [WIP] SPARK-1430: Support sparse data in Python MLlib · 63ca581d
      Matei Zaharia authored
      This PR adds a SparseVector class in PySpark and updates all the regression, classification and clustering algorithms and models to support sparse data, similar to MLlib. I chose to add this class because SciPy is quite difficult to install in many environments (more so than NumPy), but I plan to add support for SciPy sparse vectors later too, and make the methods work transparently on objects of either type.
      
      On the Scala side, we keep Python sparse vectors sparse and pass them to MLlib. We always return dense vectors from our models.
      
      Some to-do items left:
      - [x] Support SciPy's scipy.sparse matrix objects when SciPy is available. We can easily add a function to convert these to our own SparseVector.
      - [x] MLlib currently uses a vector with one extra column on the left to represent what we call LabeledPoint in Scala. Do we really want this? It may get annoying once you deal with sparse data since you must add/subtract 1 to each feature index when training. We can remove this API in 1.0 and use tuples for labeling.
      - [x] Explain how to use these in the Python MLlib docs.

      Add Naive Bayes to Python MLlib, and some API fixes · 9a0dfdf8
      Matei Zaharia authored
      - Added a Python wrapper for Naive Bayes
      - Updated the Scala Naive Bayes to match the style of our other
        algorithms better and in particular make it easier to call from Java
        (added builder pattern, removed default value in train method)
      - Updated Python MLlib functions to not require a SparkContext; we can
        get that from the RDD the user gives
      - Added a toString method in LabeledPoint
      - Made the Python MLlib tests run as part of run-tests as well (before
        they could only be run individually through each file)
