Manish Amde updated SPARK-1536:
-------------------------------

    Description: 
The current decision tree implementation in MLlib only supports binary 
classification. This task involves adding multiclass classification support to 
the decision tree implementation.

The tasks involves:
- Finding the best strategy for multiclass classification among multiple 
options:
  -- add multi class support to impurity but it won't work well with the 
categorical features since the centriod-based ordering assumptions won't hold 
true
  -- error-correcting output codes
  -- one-vs-all
- Code implementation
- Unit tests
- Functional tests
- Performance tests
- Documentation
