             Summary: Gaussian Mixture Model clustering
                 Key: SPARK-3588
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-3588
             Project: Spark
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: MLlib, PySpark
            Reporter: Meethu Mathew



Gaussian Mixture Models (GMM) is a popular technique for soft clustering. GMM 
models the entire data set as a finite mixture of Gaussian distributions,each 
parameterized by a mean vector µ ,a covariance matrix ∑ and  a mixture weight 
π. In this technique, probability of  each point to belong to each cluster is 
computed along with the cluster statistics.

We have come up with an initial distributed implementation of GMM in pyspark 
where the parameters are estimated using the  Expectation-Maximization 
algorithm.Our current implementation considers diagonal covariance matrix for 
each component.

We did an initial benchmark study on a  2 node Spark standalone cluster setup 
where each node config is(8 Cores,8 GB RAM) and the spark version used is 
1.0.0. We also evaluated python version of k-means available in spark on the 
same datasets.
Below are the results from this benchmark study. The reported stats are average 
from 10 runs.Tests were done on multiple datasets with varying number of 
features and instances.
