Update on this PR since it has been open for awhile. This was some good
work by mktal to build a multi-class svm module.
The issue with the PR is that the mini-batching is embedded in the svm
code, whereas we would prefer to add mini-batching as a general capability in
the stochastic gradient descent framework, so that it can be used by other
modules besides.
There is work in progress on this currently:
Add mini-batching to IGD framework
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MADLIB-1048
for the next release.
When that JIRA is done, we can then finish:
Multi-class SVM with mini-batching
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MADLIB-1037
which is related to this PR. @rahiyer may have more color to add as well.
