Hi Pan, There is a pull request that is supposed to fix the issue: https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/9854
There is a workaround for saving/loading a model (however I am not sure if it will work for the pipeline): sc.parallelize(Seq(model), 1).saveAsObjectFile("path") val sameModel = sc.objectFile[YourCLASS]("path").first() Best regards, Alexander From: HanPan [mailto:pa...@thinkingdata.cn] Sent: Sunday, March 20, 2016 8:32 PM To: dev@spark.apache.org Cc: pa...@thinkingdata.cn Subject: MLPC model can not be saved Hi Guys, I built a ML pipeline that includes multilayer perceptron classifier, I got the following error message when I tried to save the pipeline model. It seems like MLPC model can not be saved which means I have no ways to save the trained model. Is there any way to save the model that I can use it for future prediction.
