@thvasilo: Is it possible to assume that all the weights in the data sum up to at least 1? (or some other known constant.) There are no assumptions on individual weights or on weights being integral here, but it does mean you need to know something about the overall scaling of the weights. There are several possible implementations that incorporate weighting. If you can assume this, then you get the simplest (and perhaps most performant) implementation, but it's certainly possible to handle weights without this assumption as well. ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
