IMO SparseTensor is not appropriate for implementing the counterpart of pandas's sparse series because pandas's sparse series is a 1-dimensional array. We should introduce the same 1-dimensional sparse array data format for such purpose. If we add a new data format and class of such a 1-dimensional sparse array, the class will have `Value<T>` function, and its implementation won't be inefficient. ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
