Wenchen Fan commented on SPARK-18569:
-------------------------------------
I'm removing the target version, since no one is working on it.
> Support R formula arithmetic
> -----------------------------
>
> Key: SPARK-18569
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-18569
> Project: Spark
> Issue Type: Sub-task
> Components: ML, SparkR
> Reporter: Felix Cheung
> Priority: Major
>
> I think we should support arithmetic which makes it a lot more convenient to
> build model. Something like
> {code}
> log(y) ~ a + log(x)
> {code}
> And to avoid resolution confusions we should support the I() operator:
> {code}
> I
> I(X∗Z) as is: include a new variable consisting of these variables multiplied
> {code}
> Such that this works:
> {code}
> y ~ a + I(b+c)
> {code}
> the term b+c is to be interpreted as the sum of b and c.
