Hello Atul,
thanks for your interest. Yes, I created a jira issue(MAHOUT-976 [https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAHOUT-976] ) and started with the implementation. I will upload a patch in the next days. Then you can get an impression what's going on. I am interested in your feedback. The most complicated part is not to be confused by the indices and the notation. If it's necessary I will write the math in latex document in "the same" notation I used in the code. Cheers Christian Atul Kulkarni <atulskulka...@gmail.com> hat am 9.
