Joseph K. Bradley commented on SPARK-4675:
------------------------------------------

Just to make sure I get your last question, are you asking, "Why compute 
product similarities using the low-dimensional space when we could do it in the 
high-dimensional space?"  If so, then my understanding is that the 
low-dimensional space will give more meaningful similarities in general.

> Using the latent feature space that is learnt in MatrixFactorizationModel, I 
> have added 2 new functions to find similar products and similar users. A user 
> of the API can for example pass a product ID, and get the closest products.
