Joseph K. Bradley commented on SPARK-5256:
------------------------------------------

(Comment related to link to [SPARK-6682]) Builder methods for GLMs have issues 
because of the Optimizer API.  (See discussion above: The constructors for 
Optimizer require Gradient and Updater.)  Cleaning up the Optimizer API will 
facilitate moving to the builder API.

>             Project: Spark
>          Issue Type: Umbrella

> *Goal*: Improve APIs for optimization
> *Motivation*: There have been several disjoint mentions of improving the 
> optimization APIs to make them more pluggable, extensible, etc.  This JIRA is 
> a place to discuss what API changes are necessary for the long term, and to 
> provide links to other relevant JIRAs.
> Eventually, I hope this leads to a design doc outlining:
> * current issues
> * requirements such as supporting many types of objective functions, 
> optimization algorithms, and parameters to those algorithms
> * ideal API
> * breakdown of smaller JIRAs needed to achieve that API
> I will soon create an initial design doc, and I will try to watch this JIRA 
> and include ideas from JIRA comments.
