Hector Yee commented on SPARK-1547:
-----------------------------------

Just generic log loss with L1 regularization should suffice. Most of the work 
is in feature engineering anyway. It is no hurry at all, I already have several 
implementations not in MLLib that I am using. It would just be convenient to 
have another implementation to compare against.

> This task requires adding the gradient boosting algorithm to Spark MLlib. The 
> implementation needs to adapt the gradient boosting algorithm to the scalable 
> tree implementation.
> The tasks involves:
> - Comparing the various tradeoffs and finalizing the algorithm before 
> implementation
> - Code implementation
> - Unit tests
> - Functional tests
> - Performance tests
> - Documentation
