             Summary: Add Python APIs for decision tree
                 Key: SPARK-2478
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-2478
             Project: Spark
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: MLlib, PySpark
            Reporter: Xiangrui Meng
            Assignee: Joseph K. Bradley


In v1.0, we only support decision tree in Scala/Java. It would be nice to add 
Python support. It may require some refactoring of the current decision tree 
API to make it easier to construct a decision tree algorithm in Python.

1. Simplify decision tree constructors such that only simple types are used.
  a. Hide the implementation of Impurity from users.
  b. Replace enums by strings.
2. Implement wrappers in Python for DecisionTree.
3. Implement wrappers in Python for DecisionTreeModel.
