Stochastic svd's is not handling well all cases of sparse vectors 
------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: MAHOUT-638
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAHOUT-638
             Project: Mahout
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Math
    Affects Versions: 0.5
            Reporter: Dmitriy Lyubimov
            Assignee: Dmitriy Lyubimov
             Fix For: 0.5


The Mahout patch of the algorithm is not handling all types of sparse input 
efficiently. BtJob doesn't handle SequentialSparseVector in a way to pick only 
non-zero elements from initial input and QJob doesn't iterate over 
RandomAccessSparseVector correctly. With extremely sparse inputs (0.05% 
non-zero elements) that leads to a terrible inefficiency in the aforementioned 
jobs (QJob, BtJob).
