Nick Pentreath commented on SPARK-6346: --------------------------------------- I think we can close this ticket? It's pretty old, and everything in {{ml}} that can use L-BFGS now does, yes? > Use faster converging optimization method in MLlib > -------------------------------------------------- > > Key: SPARK-6346 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-6346 > Project: Spark > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: ML, MLlib > Reporter: Reza Zadeh > > According to experiments in SPARK-1503, the LBFGS algorithm converges much > faster than our current proximal gradient, which is used throughout MLlib. > This ticket is to track replacing slower-converging algorithms, with faster > components e.g. LBFGS > This needs unification of the Optimization interface. For example, the LBFGS > implementation should not know about RDDs. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: issues-unsubscr...@spark.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: issues-h...@spark.apache.org
