It seems that community had try to update this to N M-vectors, but seems inactive for a long time. > to accommodate future algorithms that need to return longer vectors It maybe possible, so I tend to update this PR to not use the attribute of 1-Vector. > stop wrapping all these in vectors to begin with I think we can not do this, since this column of type `Array[Vector]` had been already exposed to end user. LSH is widely used, but current impl of LSH in mllib does not work well in my opinion. I will study it in the future. ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
