2014-05-11 Thread ajtulloch
GitHub user ajtulloch opened a pull request:

https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/725

SPARK-1791 - SVM implementation does not use threshold parameter

Summary:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-1791

Simple fix, and backward compatible, since

- anyone who set the threshold was getting completely wrong answers.
- anyone who did not set the threshold had the default 0.0 value for the 
threshold anyway.

Test Plan:
Unit test added that is verified to fail under the old implementation,
and pass under the new implementation.

[GitHub] spark pull request: [SPARK-1543][MLlib] Add ADMM for solving Lasso...

I agree with @etrain, it's possible to abstract out the ADMM optimisation 
routine such that it's trivial to implement L1-logistic regression, lasso, 
[SVMs](http://web.eecs.umich.edu/~honglak/aistats12-admmDistributedSVM.pdf), 
etc with very few additional lines of code.  I implemented that for Spark a few 
months ago (albeit a naive, unperformant, and untested implementation). 

If you wanted to see an alternative way of structuring this diff, my code 
is available at 
[ajtulloch/spark/SPARK-1794-GenericADMM](https://github.com/ajtulloch/spark/tree/SPARK-1794-GenericADMM).
