                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAHOUT-817
             Project: Mahout
          Issue Type: New Feature
    Affects Versions: 0.6
            Reporter: Dmitriy Lyubimov
            Assignee: Dmitriy Lyubimov
             Fix For: 0.6


It seems that a simple solution should exist to integrate PCA mean subtraction 
into SSVD algorithm without making it a pre-requisite step and also avoiding 
densifying the big input. 

Several approaches were suggested:

1) subtract mean off B
2) propagate mean vector deeper into algorithm algebraically where the data is 
already collapsed to smaller matrices
3) --?

It needs some math done first . I'll take a stab at 1 and 2 but thoughts and 
math are welcome.
