-----------------------------------------
I tried to run word2vec with Quora Question Pairs dataset. Set max iteration
20, but can't reproduce this.
> Word2Vec generate infinity vectors when numIterations are large
> ---------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: SPARK-24666
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-24666
> Project: Spark
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: ML, MLlib
> Affects Versions: 2.3.1
> Environment: 2.0.X, 2.1.X, 2.2.X, 2.3.X
> Reporter: ZhongYu
> Priority: Critical
>
> We found that Word2Vec generate large absolute value vectors when
> numIterations are large, and if numIterations are large enough (>20), the
> vector's value many be *infinity(or -**infinity)***, resulting in useless
> vectors.
> In normal situations, vectors values are mainly around -1.0~1.0 when
> numIterations = 1.
> The bug is shown on spark 2.0.X, 2.1.X, 2.2.X, 2.3.X.
> There are already issues report this bug:
> https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-5261 , but the bug fix works
> seems missing.
