Patrick Wendell updated SPARK-5254: ----------------------------------- Component/s: MLlib > Update the user guide to make clear that spark.mllib is not being deprecated > ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: SPARK-5254 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-5254 > Project: Spark > Issue Type: Documentation > Components: MLlib > Reporter: Xiangrui Meng > Assignee: Xiangrui Meng > Fix For: 1.3.0, 1.2.1 > > > The current statement in the user guide may deliver confusing messages to > users. spark.ml contains high-level APIs for building ML pipelines. But it > doesn't mean that spark.mllib is being deprecated. > First of all, the pipeline API is in its alpha stage and we need to see more > use cases from the community to stabilizes it, which may take several > releases. Secondly, the components in spark.ml are simple wrappers over > spark.mllib implementations. Neither the APIs or the implementations from > spark.mllib are being deprecated. We expect users use spark.ml pipeline APIs > to build their ML pipelines, but we will keep supporting and adding features > to spark.mllib. For example, there are many features in review at > https://spark-prs.appspot.com/#mllib. So users should be comfortable with > using spark.mllib features and expect more coming. The user guide needs to be > updated to make the message clear. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: issues-unsubscr...@spark.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: issues-h...@spark.apache.org
