Manish Amde updated SPARK-1536:
-------------------------------
Description:
The current decision tree implementation in MLlib only supports binary
classification. This task involves adding multiclass classification support to
the decision tree implementation.
The tasks involves:
+ Finding the best strategy for multiclass classification among multiple
options:
- add multi class support to impurity but it won't work well with the
categorical features since the centriod-based ordering assumptions won't hold
true
- error-correcting output codes
- one-vs-all
+ Code implementation
+ Unit tests
+ Functional tests
+ Performance tests
+ Documentation
