Hi @MLnick @jkbradley
Thanks for the code review. I made some changes based on your comments.
- I agree it's better to align the input types to vector in internal
implementation. Sparse vectors can also better represent a set than
Array[Double] does. I made a new commit for this change.
- For NN search, my concern is if we do `approxNearestNeighbors` over a
DataFrame, the results will be very similar to `approxSimilarityJoin` while the
performance is worse (need an extra groupby and sort within each group). For
multiple-probing NN search, I think the performance will be even worse.
Our use case is mainly using similarity join to find fraud trips. I think I
can change the NN-search to only single-probing NN search of dataframe if you
think it's fine. What do you think?
