Xiangrui Meng commented on SPARK-6577:
--------------------------------------

We don't require scipy in MLlib. But if scipy is detected, we should recognize 
scipy sparse matrices (see _convert_to_vector) and provide functions to convert 
MLlib's SparseMatrix to scipy matrix instead of numpy ndarray. [~MechCoder] 
Please also take a note on the transpose flag, which may not be available in 
numpy/scipy.

> SparseMatrix should be supported in PySpark
