> More Efficient Sampling
> -----------------------
>
> Key: SPARK-3250
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-3250
> Project: Spark
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Spark Core
> Reporter: RJ Nowling
>
> Sampling, as currently implemented in Spark, is an O\(n\) operation. A
> number of stochastic algorithms achieve speed ups by exploiting O\(k\)
> sampling, where k is the number of data points to sample. Examples of such
> algorithms include KMeans MiniBatch (SPARK-2308) and Stochastic Gradient
> Descent with mini batching.
> More efficient sampling may be achievable by packing partitions with an
> ArrayBuffer or other data structure supporting random access. Since many of
> these stochastic algorithms perform repeated rounds of sampling, it may be
> feasible to perform a transformation to change the backing data structure
> followed by multiple rounds of sampling.
