Joseph K. Bradley commented on SPARK-1547:
------------------------------------------

This will be great to have!  The WIP code and the list of to-do items look good 
to me.

Small comment: For the losses, it would be good to rename "residual" to either 
"pseudoresidual" (following Friedman's paper) or to "lossGradient" (which is 
more literal/accurate).  It would also be nice to have the loss classes compute 
the loss itself, so that we can compute that at the end (and later track it 
along the way).

> This task requires adding the gradient boosting algorithm to Spark MLlib. The 
> implementation needs to adapt the gradient boosting algorithm to the scalable 
> tree implementation.
> The tasks involves:
> - Comparing the various tradeoffs and finalizing the algorithm before 
> implementation
> - Code implementation
> - Unit tests
> - Functional tests
> - Performance tests
> - Documentation
> [Ensembles design document (Google doc) |
