-------------------------------
Summary: Word2Vec generate infinity vectors when numIterations are
large
Key: SPARK-24666
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-24666
Project: Spark
Issue Type: Bug
Components: ML, MLlib
Affects Versions: 2.3.1
Environment: 2.0.X, 2.1.X, 2.2.X, 2.3.X
Reporter: ZhongYu
We found that Word2Vec generate large absolute value vectors when numIterations
are large, and if numIterations are large enough (>20), the vector's value many
be *infinity(or -**infinity)***, resulting in useless vectors.
In normal situations, vectors values are mainly around -1.0~1.0 when
numIterations = 1.
The bug is shown on spark 2.0.X, 2.1.X, 2.2.X, 2.3.X.
There are already issues report this bug:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-5261 , but the bug fix works seems
missing.
