             Summary: Ability to re-create ML models
                 Key: SPARK-2495
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-2495
             Project: Spark
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: MLlib
    Affects Versions: 1.0.1
            Reporter: Alexander Albul


Hi everyone.

Previously (prior to Spark 1.0) we was working with MLib like this:

1) Calculate model (costly operation)
2) Take model and collect it's fields like weights, intercept e.t.c.
3) Store model somewhere in our format
4) Do predictions by loading model attributes, creating new model and 
predicting using it.

Now i see that model's constructors have *private* modifier and cannot be 
created from outside.

If you want to hide implementation details and keep this constructor as 
"developer api", why not to create at least method, which will take weights, 
intercept (for example) an materialize that model?

A good example of model that i am talking about is: *LinearRegressionModel*

I know that *LinearRegressionWithSGD* class have *createModel* method but the 
problem is that it have *protected* modifier as well.
