Apache Spark reassigned SPARK-22119:
------------------------------------

    Assignee:     (was: Apache Spark)

> Add cosine distance to KMeans
> -----------------------------
>
>                 Key: SPARK-22119
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-22119
>             Project: Spark
>          Issue Type: New Feature
>          Components: ML, MLlib
>    Affects Versions: 2.2.0
>            Reporter: Marco Gaido
>            Priority: Minor
>
> Currently, KMeans assumes the only possible distance measure to be used is 
> the Euclidean.
> In some use cases, eg. text mining, other distance measures like the cosine 
> distance are widely used. Thus, for such use cases, it would be good to 
> support multiple distance measures.
> This ticket is to support the cosine distance measure on KMeans. Later, other 
> algorithms can be extended to support several distance measures and other 
> distance measures can be added.
