             Summary: Don't force users to set k for KMeans if initial model is 
set
                 Key: SPARK-17789
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-17789
             Project: Spark
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: ML
            Reporter: Seth Hendrickson
            Priority: Minor


In the initial implementation of initalModel, we allow users to set the initial 
model with a KMeansModel that has a different {{k}} than the current model. We 
throw an error at train time if the two are mismatched. This means that the 
following code throws a runtime exception:

{{code}}
val kmeansModel = new KMeans().setInitialModel(model).fit(df)
{{code}}

We should discuss this behavior, and decide if we should enforce users to set 
both the initial model and k, or if we should alter k when the initial model is 
set, or if we should keep the current behavior.
